Argyrantema - cut
If argyrantema loses leaves, shoots can be shortened 1/3 of their length at the end of July (after first flowering). They should rebound strongly again.Before hibernating, do not prune the plants, because then they become susceptible to drying out. In spring, the shoots are shortened by about 1/3 of their length.
argyrantemy wintering
Argyrantema is placed in the bright quarters before the onset of frosts and hibernated at 8 to 12 ° C.We water the plants sparingly, but regularly, so as not to let the substrate dry out.In April / May, after the last frosts, we can put the containers on the terrace again. Move the plant with a dry root ball to a dark room.
Tip
By removing the faded argyrant flowers on an ongoing basis, new buds continue to appear in their place.
