What are the water needs for Pixie Eyes
Pixie Eyes should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.
What is the right soil for Pixie Eyes
If you're planting Pixie Eyes, you need to make sure you use a potting soil that can retain moisture. While the soil should still be able to drain well, it should contain plenty of organic matter like coco coir or sphagnum moss to help it stay moist and nourish the roots of your plants. This is especially important since Wedge Leaved Primrose is especially sensitive to dry soil. You can also add other amendments, such as compost, to help retain moisture and provide extra nutrients to your plants. Be sure to keep the soil evenly moist, but not soggy, throughout the growing season. With the right soil and proper care, your Pixie Eyes will thrive!
What is the sunlight requirement for Pixie Eyes
To ensure optimal growth, the Pixie Eyes prefers bright indirect light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.
