continental : Plant which needs at least a few hours a day of solar rays.
We suggest locating the the Typha laxmannii in the garden, since it is a very rustic plant.

alpine : These plants love very sunny positions, which are directly exposed to sunrays even for many hours a day.
We advise locating these plants outdoors, in the garden or on the terrace; they can stand the cold and heat.

mediterranean : These plants can be placed in a very bright place, possibly sunny, directly under the solar rays for a few hours a day.
Let’s cultivate the the Typha laxmannii in the garden, in full ground, because it’s completely rustic.

Water Typha laxmannii

continental : Water every 1-2 weeks, when the ground is perfectly dry; we advise avoiding excesses when watering, although the substratum must be wet well. Let’s use 1-2 buckets of water for average size plants.

alpine : Water every 2-3 weeks, leaving the soil dry for a few days; avoid surpluses. In any case it is agreeable to wet the substratum well in case of prolonged drought using 0-1 buckets of water.

mediterranean : Irrigate with 2-3 buckets of water. Watering should be carried out only when the soil has been dry for days; during this period of the year watering once or twice a week could be enough. When irrigating avoid immoderation.

Fertilize Typha laxmannii : We should avoid fertilizing aquatic plants in the summer; if we intend planting new essences, let’s remember to enrich the soil with a granular slow release fertilizer.
