Plant Care – Andromeda polifolia ‘Compacta’ Bog Rosemary
Light: Place your Andromeda polifolia ‘Compacta’ Bog Rosemary where it can receive full sunlight. It can also tolerate slight shade but may not flower as heavily.
Water: Water your plant thoroughly and make sure that the soil is evenly moist. Water your plant whenever the top inch of the soil is dry to the touch, and make sure to water till some water flows through the pot’s drainage holes.
Soil: The plant thrives in well-aerated soil that drains water quickly and should not be placed in soils that are too compacted and heavy, which cause prolonged periods of water retention. And this can lead to root problems, for instance, root rot.
Fertiliser: Fertiliser you plant with a fertiliser containing more phosphorus. Fertilise according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Humidity Requirement: Medium To High
