What are the water needs for Dwarf Trillium

What is the right soil for Dwarf Trillium

What is the sunlight requirement for Dwarf Trillium
To ensure optimal growth, the Dwarf Trillium prefers bright diffused 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.
How to fertilize Dwarf Trillium
The growth of Dwarf Trillium is gradual and it doesn't necessitate any additional fertilizers. Replacing the soil in its pot once a year should suffice to provide the plant with sufficient nutrition.
