Use these instructions to care for an Torenia. This guide will tell you how to water an Torenia; its light, temperature, humidity preferences and any additional care it might need to help it grow.
Torenia Moon Indigo will grow best in partial to full shade, as it won’t thrive in full sun. Starting out the day with light from the early morning sun and later on resting in the afternoon shade provide the best conditions for your plant.
Provide your Torenias with plenty of water as they do not like to dry out completely. Water just before the soil is dry. During hot and dry times, more watering may be required, and during rainy and cool times, less watering may be needed. Be sure to avoid splashing water on the foliage and blooms when watering, as this can cause diseases.
Fertilize 1–2 times a month using a liquid fertilizer or add a slow-release fertilizer to the soil according to instructions. The best time to fertilize is during the growing season from spring until autumn.
Torenia Moon Indigo typically don’t require deadheading, also known as the removal of spent blooms. However, if you notice your plants starting to get leggy or stretched out, feel free to trim the flowers and foliage back, and they will branch out and rebloom. Be sure to fertilize regularly.
