Straw Flower White

Description

1. Sunlight: Strawflowers thrive in full sunlight. Place them in a spot where they can receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day.
2. Watering: Water regularly, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings, especially in between rainy periods.
3. Soil: Plant them in well-draining soil. A sandy or loamy soil mix works well for strawflowers.
4. Temperature: They prefer warm temperatures, so make sure to plant them after the danger of frost has passed. They can tolerate some cooler temperatures, but frost can damage them.
5. Fertilization: Use a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and abundant blooms.
6. Deadheading: Remove spent flowers regularly to encourage continuous blooming throughout the season.
7. Pruning: Trim back any leggy or overgrown stems to promote bushier growth and maintain a tidy appearance.
8. Pests and Diseases: Keep an eye out for pests such as aphids or spider mites, and treat them promptly if detected. Ensure good air circulation around the plants to prevent fungal diseases.
