Growing Conditions

Plant Care

Once planting is completed aftercare is mostly in watering particularly so if grown in gardens and pots.  A mulch of 50mm in depth is beneficial but be sure that the mulch is kept away from the plant, as this could cause basal rot in wet weather.  Some trimming of the plant to desired shape and size can be carried out after flowering and up to the end of March.  When in flower drifts of colour of Osteospermum are outstanding.
