Make sure that there's room for the climber to grow when it gets tall, and remember that it will grow towards the sun unless carefully trained. Planting How-to : Planting Vines & ClimbersĬhoose the planting site for your climber carefully: its long flexible stems may need some shelter, but planting right next to a wall might keep it from the sun or water it needs. A 3 inch layer of mulch will help to maintain soil moisture and studies have shown that mulched plants grow faster than non-mulched plants. Amending your soil with compost will help improve texture and water holding or draining capacity. Most plants like about 1 inch of water per week. Soil is moist without being soggy because the texture of the soil allows excess moisture to drain away. Moist and well drained means exactly what it sounds like. Watering Conditions : Moist and Well Drained Houseplants requiring bright light should be placed within 2 feet of an eastern or western exposure window or within 2 to 5 feet of a southern exposure window. Know the culture of the plant before you buy and plant it!Ĭonditions : Bright Light for Houseplants

Plants able to take full sun in some climates may only be able to tolerate part sun in other climates. Partial sun receives less than 6 hours of sun, but more than 3 hours. Full sun usually means 6 or more hours of direct unobstructed sunlight on a sunny day. The only exception is when houses or buildings are so close together, shadows are cast from neighboring properties. Areas on the southern and western sides of buildings usually are the sunniest. Many of these plants will do fine with a little less sunlight, although they may not flower as heavily or their foliage as vibrant. Allow houseplants to 'rest' during the winter months stop fertilizing in late October and resume feeding in late February.įull sunlight is needed for many plants to assume their full potential. For organic fertilizers, such as fish emulsion, follow label directions. Controlled, slow-release fertilizers are carefully worked into the soil usually only once during the growing season or per label directions. Water soluble fertilizers are used every two weeks or per label instructions.
or organic fertilizers such as fish emulsion. temperature controlled slow-release fertilizers 3. water-soluble, quick release fertilizers 2. Applications made at that time can force lush, vegetative growth that will not have a chance to harden off before the onset of cold weather. It is best to avoid fertilizing late in the growing season. Excess nitrogen in the soil can cause excessive vegetative growth on plants at the expense of flower bud development.
Fertilizers that are high in N, nitrogen, will promote green leafy growth. If one or more nutrients is low, a specific instead of an all-purpose fertilizer may be required. A soil test can determine existing nutrient levels in the soil. Shrubs and other plants in the landscape can be fertilized yearly. Trees need to be fertilized every few years. Take a visual inventory of your landscape. Plant Care Fertilizing How-to : Fertilization for Established PlantsĮstablished plants can benefit from fertilization. Google Plant Images: click here!
