Senetti Care

[@omietopi]

Living in a cooler climate has also its good side. Where I live it's get way too hot. Your plant looks gorgeous ! Thanks for these great information !

[@julieinglis8933]

I bought one of these last weekend at the garden centre, it was so vibrant it immediately grabbed my attention. After learning a bit more about them here I’m tempted to get some more in other colours.

[@Gardeningat58N]

I know, the colour is just amazing, some of them are so colourful they actually seem to hurt my eyes they are so intense. When I used to manage a garden centre I used to buy in about ten different varieties, so there is plenty of different colours to choose from.

À mon avis, l''une des meilleures couleurs est sans doute le bleu roi vibrant qui est rarement observé chez d'autres plantes.

[@TracMcNguyen]

wow, very high impact blooms. thanks for a very informative video.

[@R1chardH]

Very helpful thanks a lot, thought mine was dying, its just getting hot and into summer

[@mypurpleflower1020]

Will the flowers produce seeds that will grow too?

[@ryansmith328]

Quick question, when deadheading Senetti, and you’re cutting down to the base of the stem where the other stem with a bloom comes off, do you want to cut above or below the new little leaves coming out of stem you’re cutting? Is that new growth going to turn into new stems with blooms, or just foilage that takes energy away from other blooming? Thanks! Sorry, just thought of one more question; I live in San Francisco, so our climate is mild, but I’ve noticed it’s blooming a lot less than when I bought it...I have it in a south facing walkway that only gets some afternoon sun, does it need more to bloom better? Thanks again!

My leafs have started to curl whats this down to

[@caseymarie6828]

My leaves are doing the same. Turned brown too. I think they were left outside during a hard freeze last week though.

[@greenedyfrio338]

Hi very nice explain. Did you ever try to take cuttings as insurance for winter season?

[@CapysGardenShop]

Thank you! Just got 2 here in 8b Seattle. Labeled as Pericallis.

[@trenaeldridge6762]

Great video

[@Gardeningat58N]

Thanks!

[@myrtleandthistle]

great video! I cannot seem to keep these plants alive and I've no clue what I'm doing wrong.... (live in Scotland too). Bought one from the local garden centre two days ago and put it into a larger pot and already some of the flowers are dying off. This is exactly what happened last year and I couldn't recover it again. I've given it some food and made sure to keep it watered but it looks like the stems near the flowers seem to be snapping. I've had it at my front door but perhaps it's too exposed, could this be the issue?

[@Brichanise.Nicole]

Myrtle & Thistle try to keep the environment the same until the plant gets use to its new environment God bless keep searching for amswrrsv

[@Legend-sl9bn]

I got some about 4 years ago they did really well, chopped them down in the summer and they rebloomed , every year since then I've bought them and had no luck at all, I think it's down to the supplier as mine came with leaf miner and spider mites on them, this year I got 2 from a different garden centre and there looking really healthy with no issues atm

[@timedwards6651]

Hi I am a gardening dunce but bought a couple of these plants recently. I am keeping them on my garden table which also has an umbrella. Can I keep them this way ad infinitum or should I transfer to flower bed?

[@sandrabranca2353]

How beautiful, it looks like a landscape, how can i get the seed. I have never seen this plant in Brazil.

[@Gardeningat58N]

I've never seen the seeds for sale, I think its normally propagated by cuttings. Here in the UK its protected by plant breeders rights so technically your supposed to pay to propagate it. It only grows in cool countries so it may be hard to find in Brazil, unless you are in the mountains.

[@sandrabranca2353]

Eu love plants, this plant is beautiful, but i think after the dried flowers, they turn into seeds.

[@psychologycontact9921]

I really hope you can help me. I bought two of these and put them into new ceramic pots and watered them. First day, they changed appearance from happy, which is how they looked in-store, to sad. I figured this was just owing to the re-potting process and presumed they would spring up. But they didn't. They just look sad and forlorn. So, I stopped watering them and put them in a full sun position (I'm in London and it's April, so not major Sun/heat). But they continue to look sadder and sadder. I am normally green-fingered and do not understand what I have done to these beauties to make them upset. What should I do? Having watched your video, I'm thinking to trim them down and feed them with Tomatorite, and hope for the best. Do you have any other advice? Best Wishes, Jane X x

[@05tsamra]

Overwater maybe

[@Shroedinger73]

excellent tutorial...thank you

[@nus5376]

Hello there , just wanted advice on these plants pls All my leaves and flowers have dried up , what shall I do ? Cut them all and leave the stem ? Thank you

[@sheilamore3261]

Oh my goodness that flower is gorgeous I had one but it didn’t last long

[@Gardeningat58N]

Yes they are stunning when in flower, but they don't handle the hot weather well in summer. If you can keep them cool over summer they will bloom well again in autumn.

[@claudiacanales2662]

Oh wow they rebloom in the fall….I didn’t know.

[@05tsamra]

​@@Gardeningat58N would the uk summer affect these.

[@Gardeningat58N]

@@05tsamra they grow well for me over summer here in north Scotland, and then have a second flowering in autumn. However you will need to avoid the midday sun in the rest of the UK over summer, especially if its as hot as last year.

[@pamelafrancis7362]

HI I BUY THIS PLANT LAST WEEK AT ASDA IT STILL LOOKING GOOD BUT WILL COME BACK NEXT YEAR HELP PAMELA IN LONDON

[@Gardeningat58N]

If you can keep it safe from frost then yes it will come back, cut it down low, leaving about 10cm after its finished flowering. I managed to keep mine for two winters in Scotland, with moving it inside every time there was a hard frost, but as you are in London it should be easy to find a sheltered spot where it won't get frost.

[@thunderlord2200]

mine just stoped flowing and in tehn started to die off. i had to thow it out as painfull as it was. (i try to keep mine all year long if i can, i love in the southwest in USA so we really dont get freezing weather... just hot )

[@Brichanise.Nicole]

thunderlord2200 sorry try again God bless

[@ornellawarren4039]

Great. Very helpful

[@eileendight5098]

Good explanation. Thank you.

[@megatherium99]

Excellent video! My Senetti also did well in the sunroom with LED growlights.

[@olwenbarker4000]

Mine seems be a little droopy i dont know why? Rsvp

[@Gardeningat58N]

Its either too hot for it in your climate, i.e. over 25C (77F) or its over watered or under watered. Make sure the compost doesn't dry out, however make sure any excess water can drain out of the pot so it doesn't become waterlogged. If its just the flowers that are droopy then its a lack of light.

[@shuyanjin5936]

How it life?

[@felicityflanflinger6137]

Thank you really useful video.

[@moshthemonster6962]

i think mine are not getting enough Sunlight, all the flowers are really limp now, i think i should just cut it down, do you agree?

[@Gardeningat58N]

I've only seen the flowers go limp when the are grown inside where its too warm and dark. I would cut off any limp stems, and put it somewhere with more sunshine. It should grow more flowers but they should be stiffer and not go limp. Also make sure its well watered, these plants don't like to dry out.

[@moshthemonster6962]

Thank you so much for your advice. I will do that right now :)

[@Gardeningat58N]

I just saw it in your nasty Zoo video, They do best outside, so if you have a garden or a balcony it would do better there. Your plant looks healthy, so it should produce more flowers soon. Especially if you cut back the top few inches.

[@moshthemonster6962]

Ah lovely thank you. I will put them outside. Thank you

[@12109babygurl]

nice !
