Vaccinium nummularia Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Cultivation Notes: Requires a moist but freely-draining lime free soil, preferring one that is rich in peat or a light loamy soil with added leaf-mould[11, 200]. Prefers a very acid soil with a pH in the range of 4.5 to 6, plants soon become chlorotic when lime is present. Succeeds in full sun or light shade though it fruits better in a sunny position[200]. Requires semi-shade[188]. Requires shelter from strong winds[200]. Plants are not very frost-resistant and are particularly susceptible to late spring frosts, they succeed outdoors only in the milder areas of Britain[11]. They grow well in a woodland garden in the southwest of the country[166]. Dislikes root disturbance, plants are best grown in pots until being planted out in their permanent positions[200]. Plants in this genus are notably resistant to honey fungus[200]. For further Vaccinium nummularia gardening information |
