How to care for your Lathyrus White Pearl

  • Fertilising: Feed with a balanced fertiliser once a month during the growing season. This will help promote healthy growth and blooming.
  • Pruning: Prune regularly to keep its shape and encourage new growth. Cut back dead or diseased wood, and remove any shoots that are growing from the base of the plant.
  • Support: It is a climbing plant, so it will need a trellis or other support to grow on. Make sure the support is sturdy and securely in place to prevent the plant from falling over.
