A note from PlantMom

Variegated broomrape is highly resistant to disease and is generally not susceptible to illnesses. In terms of care, this plant is fairly low-maintenance. When grown outdoors it needs only minimal watering, and larger specimens typically do not require pruning. Smaller plants, however, should be trimmed after they have finished blooming. Variegated broomrape is appropriate for anyone with outdoor space, such as a garden or a deck, and does not demand extensive care experience.
