🌞 Plant Care Guide

☀️ Sunlight: Requires at least 6 hours of full sunlight daily. Can tolerate partial shade, but full sun gives denser blooms and better foliage.

🌡️ Temperature: Ideal range 20°C–32°C. Hardy to mild cold (down to 5°C) and can tolerate heat up to 40°C with care.

🌱 Soil: Prefers loamy, well-drained soil enriched with compost. Slightly acidic to neutral pH (5.5–6.5) works best. Avoid waterlogged soil.

💧 Watering: Water when topsoil feels dry. Increase frequency in summer; reduce in winter. Avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.

🪴 Potting & Repotting: Start with a 12-inch pot, shift to 18-inch as it matures. Repot every 1–2 years for best growth.

🧪 Fertiliser: Feed monthly with organic options like vermicompost, cow dung, seaweed extract, or bone meal. Use Panchagavya spray for natural boost.

✂️ Pruning: Prune after flowering or during rainy season to encourage bushy growth. Remove dried or diseased branches regularly.

🐛 Pest Care: Keep an eye on mites, aphids, and mealybugs. Use neem oil or organic sprays for safe protection.
