Azolla caroliniana

Feed Azolla caroliniana : As autumn arrives, and therefore the temperatures become lower, it isn’t necessary to fertilize aquatic plants; during this period of the year in fact many aquatic plants are in vegetative rest.

continental : Let's grow the the Azolla caroliniana where it can enjoy as many hours as possible of direct sunlight.
These plants can be grown in the garden during this period of the year; they can’t tolerate the cold, therefore they should be located in a sheltered place as soon as the minimum temperatures go below 0°C. Sudden freezing can ruin the foliage of the most external branches.

alpine : Plant which needs to be exposed to direct sunrays.
These plants dislike temperatures below zero; during the autumnal months they can be left outside only if the climate is mild; as the nocturnal temperatures get lower, let’s place the Azolla caroliniana in a spot where it is sheltered by the frost, or in a cold greenhouse.

mediterranean : Locate the the in a sunny place, where it can receive direct solar rays for at least a few hours a day.
These plants can stand minimum temperatures near 0°C; in this period of the year they can be located outdoors, in a sheltered place.

continental : We recommend watering only when the ground has been dry for days, about every 10-11 days with 1-2 buckets of water; let’s also avoid exposing our plants to rain.

alpine : It’s not necessary to water too often; we can act from time to time with 0-1 buckets of water every 10-11 days, moistening the ground.

mediterranean : Water from time to time using 2-3 buckets of water, letting the soil dry for 10-11 days before watering again; it’s best to leave the soil dry for a longer time lapse, rather than wetting more than needed.

Adversity Azolla caroliniana : When the climate is still not too harsh we should apply a wide range fungal treatment, vaporizing the fungicide even on the soil on the feet of the plants. Let’s remember to collect and destroy the leaves of the plants affected by black spot disease or by leaf curl disease.
