In order for your catharanthus to thrive, it needs certain conditions.
Firstly, he prefers bright but diffused light.
Direct rays of the sun can cause leaf burns. Secondly, the room temperature should be moderate, within 18-25 degrees Celsius.
The plant needs frequent and regular watering.
For lush flowering, high humidity is required both inside and outside the pot.
If the humidity at home is below 60%, you need to place a cup of water near the pot and regularly spray the catharanthus.
In this case, precautions must be taken.
Catharanthus loves a bright, warm location, is not picky about soil, but grows better and blooms longer in fertile, loose, well-drained soils with a neutral reaction.
This plant variety is heat and stress resistant.
Replanting Young catharanthus are recommended to be replanted every year in the spring.
Adult plants are replanted less frequently - once every 2-3 years.
When replanting, you should carefully remove the plant from the pot, freeing the roots from the old soil, and place it in a new pot with prepared soil.
