flowery senna · Senna corymbosa
Under glass grow in loam-based compost, in full light with shade from hot sun and moderate humidity. Water freely in summer but keep just moist in winter. During growth apply a balanced liquid fertiliser monthly. Can be grown outdoors in moderately fertile, moist but well-drained soil in full sun in a sheltered frost-free area
Little pruning is needed. Remove diseased, damaged, crowded or crossing shoots and unwanted growth. Timing depends on the plant: generally late winter or early spring; plants prone to bleeding and deciduous magnolias need different timing, and deciduous azaleas and lilacs are pruned after flowering.
