These plants can stand the cold, therefore they can be placed in the garden during the whole year; they don’t need protection against the cold.

alpine : For a balanced development let's place the the Filipendula vulgaris in a partially shaded place, protected by solar rays for most of the day.

Water Filipendula vulgaris

continental : Water every 1-2 weeks with 20-21 glasses of water, when the substratum appears to have been dry for days; it is suggested to avoid surpluses, keeping the plants away from being too exposed to precipitations during this period of the year.

alpine : Avoid watering too often, generally irrigations can be sporadic, every 2-3 weeks using 19-20 glasses of water.
