Feed Parakeetflower
In the spring let’s remember to fertilize our perennial plants, using a slow release granular fertilizer, to add in one solution every 3-4 months. If desired we can also use a liquid fertilizer for flowering plants, to mix with the irrigation water every 20-25 days.

Irrigation ParakeetflowerTenere asciutto
Let’s water these plants only when the substratum is clearly dry using 2-3 glasses of water ; during this period of the year we should intervene every 1-2 weeks , or even less if the weather is rainy. Generally during the period of vegetatational rest it isn't necessary to water our perennial plants, which in many cases lose their aerial part.

Temperatures ParakeetflowerPosizione mezza ombra
Usually during the coldest periods of the year the aerial part of these plants dries; it will begin to develop again the spring after. For a balanced development of the The Parakeetflower , let's choose a partially shaded place, where it can enjoy direct sunlight only during the coolest hours of the day.The Parakeetflower is grown at home or in a warmed green house; during the Spring it can be moved outside, but only if the mimimum temperatures are clearly mild.

Adversity Parakeetflower
The spring weather, with a high temperature swing between the day and night hours, and pretty frequent rains, can favour the development of fungus diseases, which should be treated pre-emptively with a systemic fungicide, to use before the gems grow excessively; at the end of the winter we also suggest a wide range insecticide to prevent the attack of aphids and cochineals. We should always remember to do these treatments when there aren't flowerings in the garden.

Substrate Parakeetflower
Grow these perennial plants in a very well drained substratum.
