Temperatures Weldenia candidaSole pieno
These plants can be put outdoors only if any danger of freezings has gone by. Perennial plants mainly have a spring and summer development. During the coldest months of the year the aerial part can completely dry out, to come up the year after.Let's grow the the Weldenia candida in a luminous place, with direct sunlight.

Care Weldenia candida
These plants are used in rock gardens. This plant in the spring assumes a white colouring; it is small in size and can reach 15 cm high. It doesn't keep its leaves in the winter. The Weldenia candida has a panel-like development, therefore it tends to widen very much.

Feed Weldenia candida
In the spring let’s fertilize perennials periodically, using a specific fertilizer for flowering plants, to add to the irrigating water, every 20-25 days; or we can spread a slow release fertilizer near the plants every 3-4 months.

Irrigation Weldenia candidaTenere asciutto
We suggest watering the the Weldenia candida every 1-2 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water , which means when the soil has been dry for days; if the season should be very hot and arid we can intensify the quantity of irrigations, although we must avoid leaving the substratum soaked with water. These plants display a pretty long period of vegetational rest. During this time it isn't necessary to water the plants.

Adversity Weldenia candida
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.

Substrate Weldenia candida
Locate these plants in a soft and deep, very well drained soil.
