Care Manzanita
The Manzanita has a shrub- like development. These plants give origin to a brush with a rounded form. The Manzanita Is small in size; in spring it assumes a greenred colouring. These are evergreen plants, which means they keep their leaves year round.

Temperatures ManzanitaSole pieno
Plant which needs at least a few hours a day of sunlight. The Manzanita can bear minimum temperatures a few degrees below zero; in general during the Spring it would be grown outdoors without any problems, but if the harsh temperatures should go down it is advised to cover it with non-woven fabric.These plants lose the aerial part during the coldest months of the year. As spring begins, stems and leaves quickly start to reproduce.

Irrigation ManzanitaTenere asciutto
Watering takes place only when the soil has been dry for days, usually every 1-2 weeks can be enough; if the climate is particularly hot we can slightly intensify the irrigations, using 2-3 glasses of water . Perennial plants are subject to some months of vegetational rest. During these months it isn't necessary to water them.

Adversity Manzanita
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.

Substrate Manzanita
These plants prevail well drained soils, with a low PH.
