Sutherlandia Frutescens, also known as Cancer Bush, is a remarkable plant known for its health-boosting properties and vibrant orange-red flowers. Growing to a mature height of 3 to 4 feet, this hardy plant is perfect for medicinal gardens, ornamental use, and attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies.
Planting Instructions:
Seed Preparation:
Soak the seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting to soften the hard seed coat and enhance germination.
Sowing:
Sow seeds in well-drained, sandy to loamy soil in a sunny location.
Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep and cover lightly with soil.
Germination:
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the germination period, which typically takes 2-3 weeks.
For better results, start seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date and maintain a temperature of 70-75°F.
Transplanting:
Once seedlings have developed several sets of true leaves and the danger of frost has passed, transplant them into their permanent location with 1-2 feet spacing between plants.
Care and Maintenance:
Water the plants regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between watering to prevent root rot.
Prune the plant after flowering to maintain its shape and encourage new growth.
Mulch around the base of the plant to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
