  • Light: Prefers full sun to partial shade, so choose a location that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight per day.
  • Soil: This plant requires well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. If your soil is heavy or clay-like, consider adding compost or perlite to improve drainage.
  • Water: This variety are sensitive to drought, so make sure to keep the soil consistently moist, but not waterlogged. Avoid getting water on the leaves, as this can encourage the growth of fungal diseases.
  • Fertiliser: It will benefit from regular fertilisation, especially during the growing season. Use a balanced fertiliser every two to four weeks to promote healthy growth and blooming.
  • Support: This plant requires support, such as a trellis or fence, to grow and climb. Make sure to provide adequate support, especially when the plant is young, to prevent it from falling over.
  • Pruning: Prune the plant regularly to encourage bushier growth and promote more blooms. Pinch off spent blooms and cut back any straggly shoots to encourage new growth.

By following these simple care instructions, you can help ensure that your Lathyrus Pink Pearl thrives and blooms to its fullest potential.
