How to grow False Spirea 'Tamarix'

  • Partial Sun

  • High

Try to plant in a location that enjoys partial sun and remember to water often. Keep in mind when planting that Tamarix is thought of as hardy, so it can be safe to leave outdoors for the majority of winter (although if in doubt, using a row cover is often a good idea). Try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 5.6 and 7.5 as Tamarix likes to be in weakly acidic soil - weakly alkaline soil.

Growing Tamarix from seed

Try to ensure a gap of at least 1.46 feet (45.0 cm) when sowing to prevent overcrowding your seedlings.

Transplanting Tamarix

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Tamarix is a hardy plant.
