Spanish bluebell

The Spanish bluebell should be watered regularly and preferably with filtered water. Water the plant every 5-7 days, making sure that the soil stays moist. In warmer climates, it may need to be watered more often. Water the soil until the water runs out the bottom of the pot, and make sure to empty out any drainage tray. During the growing season, fertilize with a liquid fertilizer once every 2 weeks.

Spanish bluebells should be planted in a spot that gets at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. The plant benefits from a temperature range of between 53°F - 68°F and is best planted in the springtime when the soil is warm and moist. It is important to avoid planting in areas with a lot of wind or full afternoon sun, as this can cause the flowers to become discolored or dry out. The plant prefers moist, well-drained soil. A fertilizer that is low in nitrogen is recommended. Once they are established, Spanish bluebells should only need occasional watering.

It is best to prune Spanish bluebells in early spring (March or April). The goal of pruning is to keep the plant looking neat and attractive. Start by removing any dead or damaged foliage. Then, prune any stems that appear to be too long or out of place. Finally, if necessary you can gently trim back any overgrown stems to help control the size and encourage branching. Be sure not to take off too much or you could reduce the number of flowers the plant will produce.
