water info |
Grows stream-side in its native habitat, giving an idea of how much water it can tolerate. That said, it doesn’t have to be soggy as long as it’s in a shady spot. Keep an eye out for wilting as an indication that the plant is under-watered or in too much sun. Water this plant regularly, when the surface of the soil feels dry. Usually this will mean once or twice a week in dry weather. Use drippers, emitters, or a slow stream of water so that it doesn’t run off; allow the water to trickle all the way down through to the deepest layers of soil. In a pot slowly water the entire surface until water comes out of the bottom of your pot. |
