Let’s plant the the Ligularia dentata in the garden, because it’s a garden plant, which can stand the cold.

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.

mediterranean : The Ligularia dentata 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 5-6 glasses of water.

Feed Ligularia dentata : Summer fertilizations should be regular, using a fertilizer for flowering plants, to mix to the irrigating water, every 10-15 days; it’s also possible to use a granular slow release fertilizer, with an action which lasts 3-4 months.

Adversity Ligularia dentata : 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.
