Watering PrunusTenere asciutto
If we want to grow these plants in a vase, we should water them a bit more often, compared to plants cultivated in the ground; Every 2-3 years we should renew the substratum in the vase, or enrich with organic amender. Water rarely, about once every 2-3 weeks with 1-2 buckets of water , keeping the soil dry for a few days before watering again; when wetting we suggest avoiding surpluses, however to wet the soil deep down.

Generalities Prunus
These plants give origin to a brush with a rounded form. The Prunus is small in size and 9 m in height; in the spring it assumes a pink colouring. These plants aren't evergreens, which means they lose their leaves some months during the year. The Prunus develops in an erect manner and, as the years go by, becomes a tree.

Exposure PrunusSole pieno
The Prunus should be grown in a bright place, with direct sunlight. To prevent damage caused by the cold temperatures, during the months with definately harsh minimum temperatures, we can protect the shrubs by covering the soil around the stem with straw or dry leaves.The Prunus should be grown outdoors; it can bear very harsh temperatures without any problems, even many degrees below zero.

Treatments Prunus
Generally during this time of year we suggest a pre-emptive treatment with wide range insecticide and with a systemic fungicide, to prevent the attack from part of the aphids and the development of fungus diseases, often favoured by a mild and damp climate.

Soil Prunus
For these shrubs it’s necessary to choose a rich and deep substratum , which presents an excellent drainage.
