Galtonia candicans

Fertilization Galtonia candicans : We should enrich the soil of newly planted bulbous plants with organic fertilizer; it’s not necessary to fertilize summer flowering bulbous plants during this period of the year.

continental : plant which needs to be exposed to direct sunrays.
In autumn these plants are grown in the garden; they can tolerate temperatures a few degrees below zero without problems.

alpine : Let's locate the the Galtonia candicans in a very luminous place, preferably sunny.
Autumn temperatures are easily tolerated by the the Galtonia candicans which usually doesn’t get damaged by short freezing; if the temperatures should go below -5°C, let’s protect our plant with a non-woven fabric.

mediterranean : These plants favour sunny exposures, where they can enjoy, even for the whole day, some direct solar rays.
The Galtonia candicans can stand temperatures a few degrees under zero, therefore they can be usually cultivated as garden plants.

continental : Let’s water every 0-1 weeks with 225-226 glasses of water, or even more often if the weather is hot and dry; we should always try to keep the ground slightly damp.

alpine : Water regularly, every 1-2 weeks, wetting the soil thoroughly by using 224-225 glasses of water and keeping it always a bit moist, although avoiding to soak it too much.

mediterranean : For a balanced development these plants need constant and abundant dampness; during this time of year it is good to water frequently, about 226-227 glasses of water at least every 0-0 weeks.
