| Cultivation:
Godetia prefers to be planted in full sun to
partial shade in well drained, slightly acidic soil. If planted in
overly fertile soil the plant tends to grow more leaves than
flowers. One of the main keys to growing Godetia is
drainage... the plant will be more apt to rot if the soil does not drain
well.
Satin Flower requires very little fertilizing. Their large 1" to 3" flowers will totally cover
the plant in a blend of vivid colors. Godetia is generally available only in a
mix of deep rose, lavender, lilac rose, pink, red, red and white
bi-color, salmon, and white.
Potential pests ~ diseases: Root rot if kept to wet.
