Exposure Rebutia violacifloraSole pieno
These plants don't like cold weather, therefore in the Spring it is best to set them outside only when the temperatures are above 15°C. We can grow a large part of the succulent plants in a cold climate; some species can endure temperatures below 5°C, but only if the soil stays completely dry.the Rebutia violaciflora should be grown in a bright place, with direct sunlight.

Generalities Rebutia violaciflora
The Rebutia violaciflora is developed like a succulent plant. The Rebutia violaciflora Is small in size; in spring, summer, autumn, winter it assumes a pink colouring. These are evergreen plants, which means they keep their leaves year round. These plants give origin to a brush with a rounded form.

Fertilization Rebutia violaciflora
In the spring let’s fertilize our succulent plants periodically, adding, every 15-20 days, a specific fertilizer. Fertilizers fur succulent plants must be rich in potassium, but poor in nitrogen, to avoid the plants from developing excess vegetation, which is easily attacked by fungal diseases.

Watering Rebutia violacifloraTenere asciutto
Water rarely, about once every 4-5 weeks with 1-2 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. These plants are very resistant to droughts; let’s avoid watering excessively; during the winter months we can avoid watering the plants located where there’s a cold climate.

Treatments Rebutia violaciflora
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 Rebutia violaciflora
Let’s prefer soft and incoherent, with elevated drainage soils.
