Glory-pea I like the article

Light Glory-peaSole pieno
We suggest to position the the Glory-pea in a sunny spot at least a few hours a day. These plants have a climber development; to let them grow at their best, let's place them near a grate or a wall.These plants don't like excessively harsh temperatures, with night-time minimum temperatures below 0°C. during the spring in general they are grown in a covered place, moving them outdoors, or uncovering them, when there isn't any danger of sudden temperature drops.

Cultivation Glory-pea
These plants are climbers, therefore they grow leaning against supports of all types. The Glory-pea Is medium in size; in spring it assumes a purple colouring. These are evergreen plants, which means they keep their leaves year round. The Glory-pea has a shrub- like development.

Fertilize Glory-pea
For climber plants to develop without problems, let’s act at the end of the winter, or in autumn, adding some manure, or a slow release fertilizer to the ground. In the spring, every 25-30 days, let’s add some specific fertilizer for green or flowering plants to the irrigating water.

Water Glory-peaTenere Umido
Let's wet abundantly with about 1-2 buckets of water , acting when the soil is pretty dry; during this period of the year we can water even every 2-3 weeks . These plants have a vigorous development; when the stem is wider it might need abundant watering during the long summer months.

Pests Glory-pea
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.

Mold Glory-pea
Let’s locate these climber plants in a slightly heavy soil with an average drainage.
