Decorative Cabbage
Decorative Cabbage
Decorative Cabbage can be planted in semi-shaded places, but for better growth we place it in a part of our garden with plenty of sun. It is usually planted at distances greater than 50 cm between plants and needs well-draining soil.
Decorative Cabbage does not require much water. It usually needs moderate watering, although during the growing season there is quite a bit of rain. As for fertilization, the addition of complete granular or liquid fertilizer, once a month, is sufficient for its good growth. As the ornamental cabbage grows, we gradually remove its lower leaves when they begin to turn yellow and dry in early spring, until mid-spring when the flower stem develops. We can let ornamental cabbage seed to reseed, otherwise, we pull it up to plant spring flowering plants.

Cactus
CactusCacti need full sun exposure, with very few exceptions, and a long warm season exceeding 6 months to grow. The intense activity of the cacti takes place during the spring and summer period, during which, in addition to growth, they also give their unique flowering. As for winter, a period of dormancy, cacti seek temperatures of 5-15°C, although some of them can withstand sub-zero temperatures for a while. Cacti need coarse, sandy, draining soil to grow. An ordinary general-purpose potting soil is not suitable for cacti, as it retains a lot of moisture. That is why we use specialized potting soil for cacti enriched with nutrients. Cacti definitely need fertilization, especially during the spring and summer when they do most of their growth. Specialized fertilizers for cacti, water-soluble with enough trace elements, are needed to improve growth and give their wonderful flowering. We add water-soluble fertilizer to the cacti twice a month for the spring and summer periods.
