🌿 Cultivating Your 'Red Sox' Radiance: Simple Care for Spectacular Results
You deserve a garden that thrives with minimal fuss, and the Zantedeschia 'Red Sox' delivers. These resilient beauties are surprisingly easy to care for, rewarding you with their spectacular display.
Watering Wisdom:
Keep the soil consistently moist but never waterlogged, especially during the active growing season (our South African spring and summer).
Reduce watering in autumn as the plant prepares for dormancy.
Soil Perfection:
Plant in well-draining soil rich in organic matter. A good quality potting mix for containers or amended garden soil works wonders.
These plants appreciate slightly acidic to neutral pH levels.
Light Love:
For the best blooms and strongest growth, provide full sun to partial shade. In the hottest parts of South Africa, some afternoon shade is beneficial to prevent scorching.
Feeding for Flourish:
Feed every 2-4 weeks during the growing season with a balanced liquid fertiliser to encourage abundant flowering.
Feel the satisfaction of nurturing such exquisite plants, knowing they will reward your efforts with a spectacular display year after year. The 'Red Sox' will give you a sense of accomplishment and a truly vibrant garden space.
