General Information: 

Welcome to our informative guide on growing Magenta Moon Torenia! 

Torenia, also known as wishbone flower, is a stunning annual plant that produces vibrant, trumpet-shaped flowers in shades of magenta. Its delicate blooms and lush foliage make it a popular choice for adding color and charm to gardens, borders, and containers.

Moon torenia thrives in partial shade to full sun conditions. Ideally, it should receive around 4-6 hours of direct sunlight per day. However, in hotter regions, providing some afternoon shade can help prevent the plant from wilting.

Well-draining soil is essential for  torenia. It prefers a slightly acidic to neutral pH level (around 6.0-7.0). Regular watering is crucial to keep the soil consistently moist, but be careful not to overwater as it can lead to root rot. Mulching around the base of the plant can help retain moisture and suppress weed growth.

Torenia thrives in moderate temperatures, ideally between 60-80°F (15-27°C).

Providing  torenia with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 2-3 weeks during the growing season will promote healthy growth and abundant flowering. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for application rates.

Torenia is generally resistant to pests and diseases. However, keeping an eye out for common garden pests like aphids, snails, and slugs is recommended. If necessary, use organic pest control methods or consult with us for appropriate solutions.
