Clusia rosea ‘Princess’

Description

Contrary to its name, this wonderfully sculptural Clusia is anything but a princess. It is a hardy plant, able to withstand a range of conditions and not needing too much fussing. It grows quickly and generously, filling the space around it with bright green, paddle-shaped foliage. It does like the spotlight a little bit though, so if you give it some direct morning or afternoon sun, it will take centre stage.

WATERING

LIGHT REQUIREMENTS

Bright, indirect.

FEED

Use a houseplant fertiliser 2-3 times between March – November.

REPOTTING

Repot every spring if the plant is crowding. Use a well draining house plant compost.
