Cassia glauca 3.0m Ht, 2.5-3cm dia

🌞 Light: Cassia Glauca thrives in full sun, requiring at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth and flowering. Plant in a location with ample sunlight to ensure vibrant blooms.

💧 Water: Water regularly during the establishment phase, keeping the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Once established, it is drought-tolerant; water moderately, allowing the soil to dry slightly between sessions.

🌱 Soil: Prefers well-draining soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Incorporate organic matter like compost to improve soil fertility and drainage.

🌿 Fertilizer: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10) every 6-8 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) to promote lush foliage and abundant blooms. Avoid over-fertilization to prevent excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.

✂️ Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring to maintain shape, remove dead or damaged branches, and encourage new growth. Light trimming throughout the year can help control size.

🌡️ Temperature: Thrives in warm climates (USDA Zones 9 and above) with temperatures between 65°F and 85°F. Protect from frost, as it is frost-tender, though established plants may tolerate light frosts.

🐞 Pests and Diseases: Generally resilient but may be susceptible to aphids, spider mites, or fungal leaf spots. Monitor regularly and use organic insecticides or fungicides as needed. Ensure good airflow to prevent diseases.

🌱 Propagation: Propagate through scarified seeds (soak in water for 24 hours and nick the seed coat) or cuttings. Sow seeds in well-drained, sandy compost and keep at 20-25°C for germination, which may take 4-6 weeks.

⚠️ Safety Note: While Cassia Glauca has medicinal uses in traditional Ayurvedic medicine (e.g., for digestive issues), its leaves and seeds can be toxic if ingested. Use under professional guidance and keep away from children and pets.

With proper care, Cassia Glauca will reward you with vibrant blooms and lush foliage, making it a captivating centerpiece for your garden or landscape.
