How to Care for Leucospermum in Perth
● Sunlight: Plant in a sunny, open position to encourage healthy growth and abundant flowering.
● Soil: Requires very well-drained soil. Perth’s sandy soil can be suitable, provided drainage is excellent.
● Watering: Water regularly while establishing. Once established, water deeply during prolonged dry periods.
● Fertilising: Use only a low-phosphorus fertiliser suitable for Australian native plants. Avoid high-phosphorus products.
● Pruning: Lightly prune after flowering to maintain a compact shape and encourage new growth. Avoid cutting into old, leafless wood.
● Mulching: Use a light mulch around the root zone, keeping it away from the main stem.
● Drainage: Avoid heavy, waterlogged soils, as these can cause root rot.
