Light

Cyphel is a perennial herbaceous plant that favors sunny conditions and comes from open habitats, commonly flourishing in meadows and grasslands. It prefers full sun but can also tolerate partial sun.

Fertilizer

A single application of fertilizer in spring is usually sufficient for Cyphel, although multiple feedings can maximize growth. Feed once every month to a month and a half. Fertilization improves leaf appearance and function, promoting consistent color and a healthy texture. It also stimulates root growth and nutrient absorption for long-term plant health.
