🪴 How to grow and care for bacopa flowers in Thailand

Although bacopa is a plant originating from South Africa, it can grow in the Thai climate well if it understands its nature, with the following principles of care:

1.Sun and location

* Prefer half day sun in the morning: Bacopa likes sun to produce flowers, but should avoid extreme sun in the afternoon in Thailand because too high heat can cause the chao tree, yellow leaves and stop flowering. It is recommended to place in the sun or morning sun for 4-6 hours.

*

2. Soil and potting

* Excellent drainage: Use loam mixed with chopped coconut bracts, pincer leaves and perlite to make the soil transparent.

* Choose pots with drainage holes: [If planted in hanging pots or terracotta pots, ensure that water is not trapped in the bottom of the pots, because it will cause root rot easily.

*

3. Watering (Iron Rule: Do not let the soil dry completely!)

* Keep moisture stable: Bacopa is a thirsty plant. If the soil is completely dry even for a short period of time, the tree will leave the flowering salad and flower buds immediately. Although watering can recover, it takes another 1-2 weeks to return to flowering.

* Watering regularly: Watering once a day in the morning, but if it is a sunny summer, it may be necessary to check the humidity and add water in the afternoon.

4. Fertilizing and trimming

* [Nourish Fertilizer Uniformly]: Because Bacopa is flowering and growing fast, the formula fertilizer should always be administered (i.e. 10-10-10) dissolved dilute water every 1-2 weeks to promote continuous flowering.

* Trim at the start of the spine: When raised for a long time, the branches may be long and thin. [A scissors can be used to trim the ends of the branches slightly to encourage new shoots to break tighter and thicker bushes.
