Helichrysum Ribbon
Helichrysum Ribbon will grow best in full to partial sun, but will also thrive in shadewhen grown outdoors. Placing the Helichrysum near a window where it would receive indirect filtered light would also keep your plant happy.
Water thoroughly when the top 25% of the soil feels dry to touch. Helichrysum Ribbons are hardy plants that are drought-tolerant, but grow better with regular watering and evenly moist (not soggy) soil. Also, remember to water your plant at soil level to avoid splashing the leaves. This prevents mildew growth from occurring.
Your Helichrysum is a light eater. So, you need to fertilize just once a month using a diluted liquid fertilizer or add a slow-release fertilizer to the soil according to instructions.
To encourage bushier, thicker Helichrysum plants, feel free to pinch back growth every so often.
