How to keep Cladanthus Arabicus.
Light
Palm springs daisy originates in bright, open areas and flourishes in full sun. It can tolerate partial sun but favors direct sunlight for optimal growth. This annual and biennial plant is noted for its sun-loving nature.
Temperature
Palm springs daisy has good temperature adaptability, tolerating high heat and large temperature swings. In hot weather, it’s necessary to watch watering and provide adequate shade to avoid sunburn. Conversely, Palm springs daisy is relatively sensitive to low temperatures. While it can handle some cold, excessively low temperatures can cause frost damage.
Fertilizer
When most of the Palm springs daisy's blooms have opened to full size, resume fertilizing. Around the peak bloom period, fertilize once every three to four weeks, as weather permits. Then, when the Palm springs daisy begins producing fewer new blooms, stop fertilizing; there is no need to fertilize when the plant can no longer produce additional blooms.
