HOW DO YOU PLANT CLIVIA?
1996770
Use any good potting soil. In zones 8 and below plants can go outside, but where there is hard frost plant in pot. Repot when bulbs and roots fill the pot, as they like to be tightly potted. I in zone 7b like to bring mine into an unheated garage window area with good light and let the soil dry a little. Water in winter only enough to keep the leaves green and the bulb from shriveling. Bring outside into dappled sun- shade area in early spring when hard frost is done. Keep soil moist but. ot soggy during growing season. Buds usually form in January and February. and will be in feudal glory several weeks later. (Water every three weeks or so in winter.). Mine always have three or four huge orange clusters. I just got two yellow ones this year, babies, so have them outside to GROW UP.

Hi Diane, I have found the best way to plant the clivia is in pots. Although I live in the south, they are very sensitive to the mild winters we have. When planting, go up one size only of the pot. They prefer to be root bound. As the roots begin to form on top of the soil, then it's time to repot. I've had wonderful blooms for many years now doing it this way. Also, I think the only way to get full blooms from them is to let them rest during the winter. No water for the month of November, water once in December and you will be rewarded in late January-early February with blooms. Hope this helps you!

you have enough seed to do both. use about a fourth of the seed each time. this gives you the opportunity to plant several times

They actually don't need food! They don't grow very fast without food! Just provide a sunny location! Go by instructions that come with the plant, if you buy it from Joel's Carnivous Plants on Amazon! You can also ask Joel anything about these plants. Hope this has been helpful!!!

Assuming you have already grown the herbs to a decent size in the small provided pots, I recommend the following: 1. Use a knife along the inner edge of the pot to loosen the soil. 2. Gently pull from the upper edge of the soil, and lightly on the herb itself to pull the plant with roots and soil out of the small pot. 3. From here, place the plant in a larger pot and fill with more potting soil around the roots. 4. Water with 2xs water since you have added it to a larger planting of soil.

You're supposed to plant them a 1/4th of an inch down but I usually just put them on top and put a little dirt over them and it works but remember they need about a week and a half in the cold to simulate a cold period. As for how you plant them just spread like grass and thin or start them inside in a seed starter but lavender likes poor soil properties with great drainage. I just get dirt from outside and add rocks. Happy planting.

You don't plant them. They're air plants and they don't need soil. You just put them in clear bowl or terrarium.

I watched a you tube video on planting plumerias. So I don't know what you are planting so maybe you can go on youtube and see if there is a video to help you with the particular plant you are trying to root. The information I was given was 70 degrees.

great growing vine...great producer....i plant mine in sandy soil the corner of the garden to run the fence....once it's a true vine, you should start to see flowers. flowers die back, and mini's form....takes about a week or two for them to get "plump" enough to pick....

I'm in New Mexico and have an atrium indoors. In AZ we had 2 standard pomegranate trees that did very well on simple drip irrigation-the birds ate most of the fruit though. I planted this dwarf in a pot, this way I can move it around indoors or outdoors. Pomegranates take well to pruning once established-you can keep it within a size that is comfortable for you.

The directions on the back, as I remember, said simply mow down the brown plants in the fall and spread the seeds for spring. My inference from this is that some varieties at least are perennial by virtue of a sort of automatic reseeding. I'm waiting to see what happens. I purchased the butterfly and bee mix this year.

Hi Cindy: Put the starfish and red decor inside the glass ball. Then I would spray the plant with fresh water using a sprayer; available at any store. Then place the plant inside the glass ball and position it any way you would like it. There should be a rope, that can be used to thread it through the top hole and you could have then: The option to hang it. But I prefer to have my beautiful Hinterland Trading Starfish sit beautifully on a counter. I've had mine for a few months and the plant is now blooming purple flowers. They are so easy to maintain, I simply water mine twice a week with the sprayer. A few spritz and VOILA a happy plant and an even HAPPIER plant owner. Best to you!

First, soak the seeds for 2-3 hrs. Start them indoors in 2" pots. Use a "seed starting mix." Make a dimple in the well-watered soil. Lay the seed on its side in the dimple. Cover the pots with clear plastic to create humidity. Place in a well-lit, bright, but not direct sunlight. Mist daily depending on whether the seed casing looks damp or not. They will pop up in about 3 to 5 days! I planted 11 seeds, but only 5 made it. I have been growing mine under fluorescent lights. These instructions came with my seeds ordered from Amazon.com. For further instructions, search the Internet.

I repotted my Pomegrante plant into a quart flower pot using some stones in the bottem of the pot,(you can use foam packaging peanuts)used regular potting soil, with a couple hands full of clay soil from my back yard, mixed in well with the potting soil , do not use potting soil that has fertilizer,that will kill it. after planting in pot,water it well, tap pot on work bench,floor, ground, what ever, than you may have to put in mall amount of soil, because of settlement, i cut small amount of straw around the plant,( which i cut with a sissor) to keep soil from dehydrating, which it will do fast indoors.i use a 100watt grow bulb in my lamp in my den during the cold winter, but it is now in my sun room, with two small Pomegrante, do not water it too often, that will kill it too, wait till the top of the soil dries out , which will cause the roots to grow down, seeking water. hope this helps ,

When you set your garden up, you put in the water to the fill line and add the food to the water based on the size of your unit. For a 3 pod, you use 4ml every two weeks. For a 6/7 pod garden you start with 8 ml. For plants grown over 12", you are supposed to increase feeding to 12ml. Don't forget to shake the bottle of food to distribute the solids that settle on the bottom. have a reset button I press on my Aerogarden, whenever I add food, that starts flashing two weeks after I reset it, as a reminder to feed the garden. I have a 6 pod Aerogarden. I am not sure what options different sizes offer so that reset button might not be on all Aerogardens. I hope this helps.
