Hippeastrum incachacanum 5 Pieces Seeds

Hippeastrum incachacanum 5 Pieces Seeds

Package : 5 seeds

• Substrate (Crucial): Requires an ultra-porous, sharply draining, well-aerated medium. An ideal collector mix consists of 2/3 parts pumice (or perlite) and 1/3 part peat moss. Never use standard, heavy garden soil.
• Potting Depth: Plant the bulb into a small, sturdy container, leaving a significant portion of the bulb neck exposed above the soil line. This structural exposure keeps the crown dry and actively prevents bulb rot.
• Light: Demands abundant bright, indirect light. Protect the delicate foliage from intense, scorching afternoon sun, which can bleach the leaves.
• Watering Strategy: Water thoroughly, but always allow the potting medium to approach dryness before watering again. During its winter resting phase, scale back watering significantly to mimic its native dry season.
• Temperature: Must be kept strictly above freezing. Bring the plant indoors long before overnight temperatures drop near 41°F (5°C).
