Planting distance

Winter Ballet® varieties require a planting distance of approximately 40-50 cm in bedding.

STEP 1

Have the following tools handy: a bucket of water, a watering can full of water, a spade (as well as perhaps compost, horn shavings and eggshells to fertilise and improve the soil as needed). Dig a hole that is at least double the size of the root ball and loosen the soil at the bottom of the hole to a good depth.

STEP 2

Remove the plant from its pot, immerse the root ball in a bucket of water until it is thoroughly moist, and the air bubbles stop rising to the surface.

STEP 3

Plant the Winter Ballet® variety so deeply that the top of the root ball is lightly covered with soil and use your hands to form a small circular ridge around the plant for improved water retention.

Step 4

Water the Winter Ballet® variety in after planting and ensure water supply is adequate in the subsequent weeks, because the roots take several weeks after planting to spread out in the soil.

Winter Ballet® varieties are very low-care and grow more beautiful every year!
