Adromischus cristatus 'Indian Clubs'

Adromischus cristatus var. clavifolius 'Indian Clubs'

Indian Clubs is a novel form of cristatus. They are very slow growing and will reach around 7cm across with masses of club-like leaves that can be separated as the cluster develops. They are also easily leaf propagated.

Position - under covered partially-shaded positions outdoors; indoors only in sunny positions otherwise they will lose their nice shape and colour. Will take mild frosts and moderate heat.

Watering - can be watered all year round with short dry periods in winter; they grow fastest in the warmer months. Plants will survive without water for very long periods and remain compact when dry.

Feeding - 25% of recommended dosage monthly in its growing period. The less fertiliser, the better the shape of the plant. Fertilisers high in nitrogen can produce larger plants with less colour.

Repotting - can be left to overgrow their pots or repotted in the warmer months in almost any well drained potting mix.
