For a balanced development of the The Witchgrass it is advisable to locate it in a place where it is exposed to at least a few hours of direct sunlight. Annual plants are usually not grown during the cold period; as autumn arrives we can uproot them and save the seeds for the year after.The Witchgrass is a plant which can be grown in the garden year round.

Care Witchgrass
Growing they develop a round-shape shrub. Witchgrass isn't an evergreen; during the spring, summer, autumn, winter it assumes a green colouring; the adult species are medium in size and reach 90 cm in height. The Witchgrass is a year or two year long plant.

Feed Witchgrass
When we prepare the soil to welcome our annuals, in the apring or at the beginning of the summer, let’s add a good quantity of manure, or slow release granular fertilizer. To improve the flowering we can also give it specific fertilizations for flowering or green plants, mixed with the irrigating water, every 20-30 days.

Irrigation WitchgrassTenere asciutto
Let’s water these plants only when the substratum is clearly dry using 2-3 glasses of water ; during this period of the year we should intervene every 1-2 weeks , or even less if the weather is rainy. As autumn comes these plants tend to perish, we can diminish the waterings, or even interrupt them.

Adversity Witchgrass
The spring weather, with a high temperature swing between the day and night hours, and pretty frequent rains, can favour the development of fungus diseases, which should be treated pre-emptively with a systemic fungicide, to use before the gems grow excessively; at the end of the winter we also suggest a wide range insecticide to prevent the attack of aphids and cochineals. We should always remember to do these treatments when there aren't flowerings in the garden.

Substrate Witchgrass
Let’s grow these plants in a soft and dissolved, but well drained, soil.
