Light
Two-coloured fumitory comes from habitats that have dappled sunlight, such as forest understories or rocky locations that provide natural shade. It does best in partial sun but can also adjust to full-sun conditions.
Temperature
Two-coloured fumitory can tolerate a wide range of temperature conditions, but its distribution may still be restricted by various combinations of water and heat. It performs best in warm summer climates with sufficient rainfall or watering. Extended periods of cloudy, rainy weather or prolonged high temperatures raise the chance of Two-coloured fumitory dying. In winter, shielding it from cold can help improve the plant's survival rate.
Fertilizer
Two-coloured fumitory can benefit from regular, weak doses of fertilizer to encourage healthy leaf growth. You should fertilize Two-coloured fumitory about once a month during the summer months. Nitrogen is essential for foliage, and supplementing with nitrogen-rich sources helps Two-coloured fumitory thrive.
