Bergamot Care

As a guide, you might expect to water thoroughly once every 7-10 days in winter, but be watering almost every day in the summer months. The best way to decide whether your plant is ready for a drink, is if the top of the soil is dry and the pot is beginning to feel light.

By removing overgrown foliage, you will improve airflow to the plant, and light will be better able to penetrate all portions of the plant. This actually leads to a fuller and healthier looking houseplant.

Liquid fertilizers are applied more frequently, bi-weekly or monthly, for example. Granular products are used less frequently, perhaps once every month or two. Slow-release houseplant fertilizers break down slowly and release their nutrients in small amounts, over a longer period of time. A single application of most of these products lasts for three to four months.

Needs 12-18 hours of indirect sunlight.

Prefer fertile soil, preferably loose and loamy with adequate drainage.

The Didyma plant is also not highly winter hardy and may die in extremely cold weather. However, in most cases, it regrows in the spring season.

Container should provide ample drainage and room for growth.
