watering
Incarvillea delavayi is an easy to care for flowering plant. It requires full sun to partial shade and can tolerate a wide variety of soil types as long as the soil is well-draining. Water your plant with about 1-2 inches of water each week during the growing season so that the soil is moist but not soggy. During the winter, when the plant is dormant, water it once a month with a light sprinkling.
sunlight
Incarvillea delavayi, also known as Delavay's Incarvillea, is a plant species that grows best in sunny locations that receive bright, full sun for most of the day. In the United States, it is recommended that Incarvillea delavayi should receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day, although some shade during the hottest part of the day may be beneficial. In particularly sunny climates, protection from afternoon sun may be important. When grown outdoors, Incarvillea delavayi can tolerate temperatures that range from -10 to 40 degrees Celsius (14 to 104 degrees Fahrenheit).
pruning
Pruning your Incarvillea delavayi is an important part of caring for this plant. Pruning should be done in late winter or early spring, when the plant is dormant and new growth has not yet begun. It is best to remove dead or damaged branches as soon as possible to prevent the spread of disease and encourage healthy growth. To keep the plant looking full and encourage better flowering, you should also remove any branches that are growing beyond a desired length. Try to prune the branches back to an outward-facing bud. This will help achieve a pleasing shape and fuller growth. Avoid cutting back to immature buds near the base of the plant, as this can limit new growth.
