Environment

Wrightia antidysenterica is quite a low maintenance plant.Prefers bright light or full sun; Can tolerate partial shade but will result in less flowers. It needs a well-drained loamy soil.Regular watering and occasional fertilizing, it will reward with profuse blooming and luscious green foliage.

Requires minimal pruning and it is least bothered by pests and diseases!

Landscape Use

It is a perfect specimen for limited space garden or patio. Hardy plant suited to rockeries, borders and pots.

Flowering plants need access to bright sunlight to remain healthy and blooming. An easy facing balcony is the best place for the plants in Indian conditions. Try keeping them in bright sunlight but also where they get a little cover from the harsh afternoon sun. Some plants which are a little tender tend to burn due to the same.

Plants with thin leaves need daily watering and ones with thick leaves need watering 3-4 times a week. This will also depend on the season. Generally during the blooming period, plants love a lot of water. Try keeping the soil moist. During winters it is better to cut back on watering.

Keep the plants in a well drained soil with a drainage hole at the bottom. This will help to avoid over watering. Take care as to not leave stagnant water on top of the soil. Fertilise the plant once in 2-3 weeks during its blooming period. Do not fertilise it in winters.
