seven-son flower

The Seven-Son Flower should be watered once every 5-7 days, and each watering should provide about 1-2 quarts of water per 1 square foot of soil. It's important not to let your Seven-Son Flower dry out too much between waterings and to ensure the soil remains moist, but not wet. To help with moisture retention, you may want to consider mulching the soil around it.

Seven-son flower plants prefer full or partial sunlight and should be exposed to at least 4-5 hours of direct sunlight each day. They should not be exposed to extreme shade or prolonged periods of direct sunlight, as this may cause sunburn damage to the foliage and limit flowering. During the summer months, the plant should be located in a shadier spot to avoid being exposed to intense midday sunlight. In winter, however, when the sun is less intense, more direct exposure can be tolerated.

For Seven-son Flowers, pruning should take place in late winter or early spring, right before the new growth begins or right after the flower blooms. Depending on the weather, this can be anywhere between late February and early April. Pruning should be kept to a minimum, making sure to leave some of the old wood and branches, as this allows the plant to produce flowers and maintain its natural shape. Prune out no more than 1/3 of the plant's total growth in any 1 season, taking out excess branches and those that are weak or diseased. Seven-son Flowers should never be pruned excessively nor more than once a year.
