The development of the the Shortia soldanelloides is The Shortia soldanelloides should be used for rock gardens, Fertilization Shortia soldanelloides
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. Exposure Shortia soldanelloides
The Shortia soldanelloides plant can be grown in the garden throughout the whole year. It doesn't fear cold weather and it bears very harsh minimum temperatures. These plants don't like direct solar rays which could ruin their foliage; we therefore suggest to locate them in shady places.Usually during the coldest periods of the year the aerial part of these plants dries; it will begin to develop again the spring after. Watering Shortia soldanelloides
We suggest watering these plants only from time to time, but we must remember to wet the soil deeply using 2-3 glasses of water every 1-2 weeks . Generally during the period of vegetatational rest it isn't necessary to water our perennial plants, which in many cases lose their aerial part. Treatments Shortia soldanelloides
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. Soil Shortia soldanelloides
These perennial plants are placed in a well-drained soil, with an acid PH.
