🐧 Happy Alien Darwin's Slipper Grow and Care Instructions 🐧

Please use for sowing Jiffy 7 Peat Pellets, soak them in water and put in a plastic pot.
Alternatively, normal seed substrate could be used as well. Sow the seeds on the peat pellets and cover the seeds with a thin layer of peat (about 2 mm).
Then put the plastic pot in a ziplock bag - with a pot size of 6 cm , a ziplock bag of size 12 x 17 cm is recommended . Fill in the ziplock bag as much tap water with a few drops of universal fertilizer, so that after the absorption of the substrate a few mm of water remain on the bottom. Then close the ziplock bag.
More watering is not required because no moisture evaporates through the ziplock bag .
Location: on the windowsill or in a small greenhouse in partial shade, daytime temperatures at about 75-83 F, somewhat lower at night at 68-75 F. The resulting micro-climate provides ideal conditions for germination.

 Darwin's Slipper grows well in a small pot in rich, well-draining soil, such as half potting soil and half sand.  The plants have a shallow root system and should be kept from drying out. They prefer mostly sunny conditions, but protect them from strong afternoon sun.

 Water

It's all about getting the balance right when it comes to watering your Calceolaria. Overwatering can play havoc with the plant's roots, but it'll suffer from serious wilting and petal drop if it's left to get too dry. Generously water the plant when the top layer of potting mix is dry to the touch. Make sure you water directly into the medium.

 Sunlight

Full sun to part shade.

 Fertilizer

To maximize the length of the bloom period with Calceolaria, feeding with a weak solution of a balanced fertilizer once a week could be beneficial. With a short-lived species like this, it isn't a necessity, though.

 Thank you so very much for supporting my small business!!! 🌱 Happy Planting 🌱
