Key traits and growing stats from plant data
Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water the Brazilian Dwarf Morning-Glory regularly, allowing the top 2-3 cm of soil to dry out between waterings. Avoid waterlogging the roots, as this can lead to root rot.
Reduce watering slightly during cooler months when the plant's growth slows down.
Prune to maintain a compact shape and encourage bushier growth. Trim back leggy stems in early spring before new growth begins. Deadhead spent flowers to promote continuous blooming and prevent seed formation.
Light trimming can be done throughout the season.
Propagate Evolvulus glomeratus from softwood cuttings taken in spring or early summer. Insert cuttings into a well-draining potting mix and keep them moist.
Alternatively, seeds can be sown indoors in early spring, but cuttings generally provide a more reliable method.
Repot the Brazilian Dwarf Morning-Glory every 1-2 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one.
Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a blend of peat moss, perlite, and compost.
