Product description
Latin Name: Alternanthera dentata
A few words: Perennial plant, low growth with characteristic red foliage. The maximum height of the plant will not exceed fifty centimeters, but in width it grows enough, so we need to control its size with pruning. It blooms in spring and summer and has no special soil requirements.
Light: Prefers sunny planting locations, but grows well in partial shade.
Water: Has moderate water requirements.
Temperature: It is quite sensitive to winter frosts and strong north winds and is resistant to high summer temperatures.
Fertilization: It has low requirements for fertilizer, while its excessive addition can cause damage to the plant. We prefer to add a balanced water-soluble fertilizer once a month from late spring to early autumn.
Last tip-prompt: A good time to prune the alternator is in early spring, after the winter frosts have passed.
