Care Tips for Your Heliconias
Proper care is essential for the growth and longevity of your heliconias. These tropical plants thrive in well-draining soil and benefit from a layer of mulch in winter to help retain moisture for the warmer months. Watering is crucial during the hotter season, and regular fertilising will promote healthy new foliage. With these expert tips you can cultivate lush, vibrant heliconias that bloom beautifully from late autumn to spring.
