Care Arborvitae
Arborvitae Is an evergreen; during spring, summer, autumn, winter iIt assumes a green colouring; the adult specimens are small in size and reach 1 m high. The development of the The Arborvitae is erect; in genereral in the lower part they have a pretty bare stem, while p many ramifications develop towards the top. These plants are cone-trees, so their foliage is made up of needle-like leaves. Feed Arborvitae
To obtain a florid development it is important to remember to fertilize our shrubs periodically; in the spring let’s use a fertilizer rich in nitrogen and potassium, which will favour the development of new vegetation and of flowerings. We can intervene at the end of the winter, mixing a good dose of slow release organic fertilizer to the soil surrounding our plant. During the spring it is also possible to act periodically, with liquid or powder fertilizers, to add to the water when irrigating, every 20-25 days. Temperatures ArborvitaeSole pieno
Let's grow the The Arborvitae outdoors; they can bear very harsh minimum temperatures, even when many degrees below zero. Let's grow the The Arborvitae in a luminous place, with direct sunlight.When the minimum temperatures are very low we can protec the more sensible brushes by covering their roots with dry leaves or straw. Irrigation ArborvitaeTenere asciutto
We suggest watering the The Arborvitae every 2-3 weeks with 1-2 buckets 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. If we decide to grow a specimen of the Arborvitae in a container, we should remember that it will have slightly different needs compared to a specimen grown in the ground: we should pay more attention to its water and nutritional needs and check more often for possible development of parassites. Adversity Arborvitae
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 Arborvitae
Locate in a soft soil with an accentuated drainage.
