Key traits and growing stats from plant data
Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water Donella fenerivensis thoroughly when the top 2-3 cm of soil feels dry to the touch. Avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot.
Reduce watering frequency during the dormant winter months, allowing the soil to dry out a bit more between waterings.
Prune Donella fenerivensis to maintain its desired shape and size, and to remove any dead or damaged branches. Light pruning can be done anytime, but heavier pruning is best performed in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.
Propagate Donella fenerivensis from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in mid-summer. Dip the cut end in rooting hormone and plant in a well-draining potting mix.
Keep the cuttings moist and provide bottom heat for optimal rooting.
Repot Donella fenerivensis every 2-3 years, or when it becomes root-bound. Use a well-draining potting mix. Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current one to avoid overwatering issues.
Repotting is best done in spring.
