Aristolochia TyrrhenaAristolochia tyrrhena

Water Aristolochia tyrrhena moderately during the growing season, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering significantly in winter, keeping the soil barely moist to prevent waterlogging and root rot, which this plant is susceptible to.

Prune Aristolochia tyrrhena in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead, damaged, or crossing branches.

Pruning helps maintain the plant's shape, encourages bushier growth, and can improve air circulation within the plant structure.

Propagate Aristolochia tyrrhena from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in summer or from seed sown in spring. Cuttings should be treated with rooting hormone and placed in a well-draining medium.

Seeds require stratification and may germinate slowly.

Repot Aristolochia tyrrhena every 2-3 years, or when it becomes root-bound, preferably in early spring. Use a well-draining potting mix.

Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one to avoid over-potting and potential root issues.
