Saxifraga Hindhead Seedling

Saxifraga I like the article

Exposure SaxifragaPosizione mezza ombra
These plants lose the aerial part during the coldest months of the year. As spring begins, stems and leaves quickly start to reproduce. It is advisable to position this plant in a partially shady place, where it is exposed to direct sunlight only during the coolest hours of the day.The the Saxifraga should be grown outdoors; it can bear very harsh temperatures without any problems, even many degrees below zero.

Fertilization Saxifraga
We suggest adding to the irrigation water, in the spring, every 20-25 days, a specific fertilizer for flowering plants. We can also mix to the soil near the plants a granular slow release fertilizer, which has a 3-4 month action.

Generalities Saxifraga
These plants grow covering the whole land at their disposal. The Saxifraga is a plant for a rock garden. The Saxifraga Is small in size; in spring it assumes a yellow colouring. These are evergreen plants, which means they keep their leaves year round.

Watering SaxifragaTenere asciutto
Water rarely, about once every 1-2 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water , keeping the soil dry for a few days before watering again; when wetting we suggest avoiding surpluses, however to wet the soil deep down. Perennial plants are subject to some months of vegetational rest. During these months it isn't necessary to water them.

Treatments Saxifraga
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.

Soil Saxifraga
We suggest a substratum characterized by an excellent drainage.
