Light Solandra maximaSole pieno
These plants have a climber development; to let them grow at their best, let's place them near a grate or a wall. We advise cultivating the the Solandra maxima in a covered place, in an apartment or green house, as they don't like temperatures below 15°C: during late Spring they can be moved outdoors.We suggest to position the the Solandra maxima in a sunny spot at least a few hours a day.

Water Solandra maximaTenere asciutto
These plants have a vigorous development; when the stem is wider it might need abundant watering during the long summer months. Water sporadically, with 1-2 buckets of water , leaving the soil dry for a few days before watering again; when watering we suggest avoiding excesses, but to wet the substratum well. Let's act every 2-3 weeks .

Fertilize Solandra maxima
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.

Pests Solandra maxima
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 Solandra maxima
We advise growing these plants in quite deep and soft soil with an elevated drainage.
