Abeliophyllum distichum

continental : Let’s try to keep the ground fairly damp, watering every 2-3 weeks with 1-2 buckets of water; when the weather is very harsh and the temperatures are below zero, watering can be interrupted.

alpine : Every 3-4 weeks water the soil, trying to wet it deeply; keep the ground constantly moist, although we must avoid water stagnations. Usually 0-1 buckets of water are used.

mediterranean : We suggest watering regularly with 2-3 buckets of water, trying to keep the growing substratum pretty cool and moist; if the climate is very cold we can reduce watering. 1-2 weeks should go by between irrigations.

continental : Locate this plant in a partially shady spot, where it can receive some hours of direct sunlight.
Winter minimum temperatures can cause damage to the The Abeliophyllum distichum , which can only stand short and not too harsh freezing; during this period of the year we suggest locating them in a cold greenhouse, or protect them from the wind and cold with a non-woven fabric.

alpine : Let's grow these plants in a partially shaded place, where they can receive direct sunrays just for a few hours a day.
The Abeliophyllum distichum can stand short frosts of scarce entity; during the winter we suggest locating it in a sheltered place, covering it with a non-woven fabric or moving it to a cold greenhouse.

mediterranean : The Abeliophyllum distichum can bear a few hours of direct insolagtion, but it is best to place it in a partially shady place.
The Abeliophyllum distichum can stand without problems minimum winter temperatures.

Fertilization Abeliophyllum distichum : During the winter it’s not necessary to fertilize shrubs. Before the winter climate gets decisively harsh, we should remember to put some fertilizer to the evergreen shrubs, preferably using organic fertilizer.

Treatments Abeliophyllum distichum : Towards the end of the winter, before the buds get bigger, let’s apply a defensive treatment against the most common fungi diseases, using a fungicide based on sulphur and copper.
