Fertilization Scadoxus multiflorus
Let’s use a slow release fertilizer, or manure, when planting, mixing the product to the ground; during the spring let’s mix, every 15-20 days, a specific fertilizer for bulbous plants to our irrigation water, starting from the moment in which the first flowers are withering.

Generalities Scadoxus multiflorus
These plants are bulbeous. This plant in the summer assumes a red colouring; it is large in size and can reach 1,2 m high. It doesn't keep its leaves in the winter. The development is erect, they tend to grow both in height and in width, giving origin to a rounded shrub.

Watering Scadoxus multiflorusTenere asciutto
We suggest not to exceed with the waterings: if the soil remains damp too long, it can favour the development of rotten in the bulbs. Let’s avoid watering the The Scadoxus multiflorus excessively, always leaving the soil dry for a few days between one watering and the other, therefore let’s irrigate the substratum deeply every 1-2 weeks with 1-2 glasses of water .

Treatments Scadoxus multiflorus
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.

Soil Scadoxus multiflorus
Let’s favour soft soils, with an elevated drainage.
