Plants are easy to care for, they do best in the sun, they are commercially available in shrub or stalk form.
Strączyniec blooms most profusely in sunny, warm and sheltered positions.Plants are planted in good quality soil for potted plants.
The legume must be watered abundantly; the root ball must never dry out, otherwise the plants will lose their leaves.
Plants bloom profusely if they are fed twice a week with liquid fertilizer for potted plants from April to August.
In order for the plants to flourish, trim the tops of the shoots already in young specimens. Before placing the bushes in the winter quarters or, even better - before the beginning of the growing season in spring, the shoots are shortened by 1/3 of their length. Uncut shrubs quickly grow to a height of up to 2 m.
