How to fertilize Indian Campion
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Indian Campion after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Is this a new stem blooming? After neglecting my white champion for like a week I finally refilled his water and brought him inside. And after him getting water and being inside for one day he’s already sprouting a bunch! But I was wondering what this white stuff was on the side? 🤔 (sorry my camera does NOT want to focus) #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PropagationStation #WhatTheSuccWednesday #NewGrowth
