We suggest locating the vases in a pretty bright place, although avoiding direct sunlight, which could damage the foliage. Let's avoid exposing the The Columnea crassifolia to temperatures below 15°C. During late Spring we can place them outdoors, possibly sheltered by the wind.Locate this plant in a partially shaded place, where it is exposed to solar rays during the coolest hours of the day.
Irrigation Columnea crassifolia
It is advisable to water the plants avoiding to leave water in the saucer, because stagnant water often develops fungal diseases. Water when the ground is dry; in case of prolonged droughts water very often, otherwise every 1-2 weeks can be enough using 2-3 glasses of water ; avoid water stagnations and excessive watering.
Feed Columnea crassifolia
During the spring let’s regularly use a fertilizer rich with nitrogen and potassium to favour the development of the new vegetation; fertilization is done by adding fertilizer to the irrigating water, every 15-20 days.

Adversity Columnea crassifolia
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.
