Cultivation Himalayan honeysuckle
Himalayan honeysuckle isn't an evergreen; during the autumn it assumes a greenredwhite colouring; the adult species are medium in size and reach 1,5 m in height. They tend to develop like erect small trees. The Himalayan honeysuckle develops like a shrub. Fertilize Himalayan honeysuckle
Let’s remember to fertilize our shrubs often; we can fertilize enriching our soil with manure, at the end of the winter; or we can give it a fertilizer for flowering plants, every 20-25 days, when watering. If the shrubs are large or cover a large area, we can use a slow release granular fertilizer, to be used every 3-4 months. In the spring let’s favour fertilizers rich in nitrogen and potassium, to favour the development of a new vegetation and of flowerings. Light Himalayan honeysuckleSole pieno
The Himalayan honeysuckle bears even very harsh temperatures, therefore it can be grown outdoors without feeling endangered by low temperatures. Plant which need at least a few hours a day of solar light.During the winter months we can cover a portion of the soil near the roots with dry leaves or other mulch tissue; in this manner we will protect the plant from the harsh climate. Water Himalayan honeysuckleTenere asciutto
We suggest watering these plants with 1-2 buckets of water only when the soil is perfectly dry, generally it needs to be watered about every 2-3 weeks . Let's avoid to exceed. Concerning those specimens grown in vases, let's remember that usually they need more watering, compared to the same shrubs placed in the ground. Moreover, they are often more sensible to temperatures, either very high or very low, and to radical apparatus diseases. Pests Himalayan honeysuckle
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. Mold Himalayan honeysuckle
These shrubs favour a soft and deep, but well drained soil.
