Dipladenia is a flowering plant that is suitable for hanging pots and attracts hummingbirds and butterflies to the garden. In the article we will talk about what you need to know when growing dipladenia.
Growing in a pot
The plant is not whimsical in care.
A container is the best way to grow a flower.
To start, grow a flower in a pot, and then start accustoming the plant to the trellis.
In this way, you will greatly decorate your garden with bright colors.
In addition, dipladenia goes well with other flowers.
Dipladenia love sunny and warm places.
The plant does not tolerate temperatures below 45 degrees.
The flower does not need pruning. Pruning leaves and flowers can encourage rapid growth although when grown on a trellis.
It is important to protect your hands when handling the plant, as the white sap from the stems can irritate the skin.
Although the plant itself is not toxic, small children and pets are best kept away from it.
Transfer
Dipladenia can grow for a long time in one container as it is a very hardy plant.
Therefore, there is no special need for an annual transplant.
If you want to transplant a flower into a new pot, choose the appropriate container size.
If you choose a pot that is too large, it can retain water and cause root rot.
Dipladenia is fertilized only once a year.
By following these recommendations, your garden will become even more beautiful.
