Dicentra formosa

continental : We suggest a quite sheltered location, so that the plant can be exposed to sunrays only during the coolest hours of the day.
We suggest locating the the Dicentra formosa in the garden, since it is a very rustic plant.

alpine : Locate this plant in a partially shaded place, where it is exposed to sunrays during the coolest hours of the day.
We advise locating these plants outdoors, in the garden or on the terrace; they can stand the cold and heat.

mediterranean : We suggest to locate these plants in bright places, where they can receive direct sunlight only during the coolest hours of the day.
Let’s cultivate the the Dicentra formosa in the garden, in full ground, because it’s completely rustic.

continental : The Dicentra formosa needs very frequent watering; during this period of the year we advise watering even every 0-1 weeks using 4-5 glasses of water, trying to keep the substratum always slightly damp.

alpine : We advise frequent watering, every 1-2 weeks using 3-4 glasses of water, so that the soil is always a bit humid.

mediterranean : The watering must be very regular and frequent, using 5-6 glasses of water, so that the soil is always slightly damp, avoiding excesses and water stagnation. A good rule is to wet every -0-0 weeks.

Fertilize Dicentra formosa : Bulbous plants need fertilizing in the summer only if they’re still vegetating, many bulbous plants in fact in this period of the year are in a vegetative rest. Every 10-15 days let’s irrigate with a solution enriched with a specific fertilizer for those bulbs which still have a brilliant foliage in full development.
