How to keep Hedysarum Boveanum.
Light
Hedysarum boveanum is a sun-loving perennial herbaceous plant native to open habitats, frequently occurring in meadows and grasslands. It prefers full sun but can also tolerate partial sun.
Temperature
Hedysarum boveanum can tolerate a wide range of temperatures, though its distribution may still be restricted by certain combinations of moisture and heat. It performs best in warm summer climates with sufficient rainfall or watering. Extended spells of cloudy, rainy weather, as well as prolonged high temperatures, can raise the chance of Hedysarum boveanum dying. In winter, adequate protection from cold can increase the plant's survival rate.
Fertilizer
Usually one spring application of fertilizer is enough for Hedysarum boveanum, though repeated feedings can boost growth. Apply fertilizer every month to six weeks.
