Azolla caroliniana

continental : These plants prefer a sunny location, where they can enjoy direct solar rays even throughout the whole day,
When summer begins we can grow the the Azolla caroliniana outside.

alpine : Let's grow the the Azolla caroliniana in a sunny place, with direct solar light.
The Azolla caroliniana can't stand the cold weather, but the minimum summer temperatures enable us to grow these plants outdoors.

mediterranean : Plant which needs a few hours a day of solar light.
The Azolla caroliniana can’t stand frost, but with the beautiful season and the heat we can grow it outdoors without problems.

continental : During this time of year let’s try to water quite frequently, but avoiding excesses; let’s remember to leave the soil dry between a watering and another; typically watering every 1-2 weeks is enough.

alpine : We advise watering the the Azolla caroliniana quite frequently and regularly with about 0-1 buckets of water, remembering to let the ground dry well between a watering and the other. Usually every 2-3 weeks.

mediterranean : The Azolla caroliniana doesn’t request much watering; during this time of year it is sufficient to wet the substratum deeply when it is dry; typically it is good to act every 0-1 weeks using about 2-3 buckets of water.

Feed Azolla caroliniana : Let’s enrich the soil of the freshly planted plants with granular slow release fertilizer; aquatic plants which have been cultivated for long don’t’ need fertilizing during the summer period.

Adversity Azolla caroliniana : Summer treatments should be applied only in cases of displayed infesting; a dry climate favours the development of ticks and rust. During this period of the year, since there are many useful insects in the garden, it is advisable to avoid using wide-range products, favouring the use of specific products against each type of parasite. Let’s apply the treatments during early morning or evening hours.
