Temperatures WillowherbPosizione mezza ombra
Our water plants can't bear cold temperatures therefore we can move them inside the house, placing them in large containers. Let's grow the The Willowherb outdoors; they can bear very harsh minimum temperatures, even when many degrees below zero.Locate this plant in a partially shaded place, where it is exposed to solar rays during the coolest hours of the day.

Irrigation WillowherbTenere asciutto
These plants need a great quantity of dampness; they should be placed on shores, or sea beds, or small ponds. If grown in a large container, usually the water should be substituted every 15-20 days. We suggest watering the The Willowherb every 10-11 days with 1-2 buckets of water , which means when the soil has been dry for days; if the season should be very hot and arid we can intensify the quantity of irrigations, although we must avoid leaving the substratum soaked with water.

Feed Willowherb
During the spring months we can add a specific fertilizer for our plants, green or flowering ones, to the water of our water garden . On the market there are also specific fertilizer which come in bars or in granular form, to be planted near the plants to melt constantly in about 3-4 months.

Adversity Willowherb
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.
