Care for Heliconia Psittacorum Golden Torch
- The plant requires a high humidity area. It can be grown well next to a water body.
- Add topsoil or organic peat humus to the hole when you plant. You might also add in composted cow manure to enrich the soil around the plant’s rootball.
- Dead leaves and old stems that have finished flowering should be removed to encourage more flowering.
- In spring cut back to the ground any cold damaged stalks.
- This plant loves to be fed. Fertilize 3 times a year with a top-quality granular fertilizer. Supplement feedings with regular applications of liquid fertilizer during warm months for heavier bloom. Regular irrigation is a must.
- This plant needs water and it needs it often (2 to 3 times a week in summer), though it doesn’t do well in a boggy area.
