Begin with a healthy, good bulb that is not moldy or smashed. The larger the bulb, the stronger the growth and flowering will be. Plant a great, fresh bulb at all times for the best results.

Plant it in a potting mix that drains well or in the ground itself. Blend a perfect growing medium with compost, sand, and garden soil. Plant the bulb slightly deeper than the soil level to cover it entirely but not plant it. Water it gently to settle the bulb in the ground.

Globba Schomburgkii prefers half-light. Direct sun will scorch its delicate leaves. Choose a location where it can get filtered light or morning sun to flourish.

Water the plant at intervals, and keep the topsoil lightly moist but not soggy. Overwatering causes root rot, so check the topsoil first before watering. Water very sparingly during the resting phase of the bulb.

Liquid-balanced fertilizer must be used to fertilize fortnightly when the plant is in the vegetative growing stage. It will make stems firm and flowers strong. At no stage of time, over-fertilize because it will cause weak growth.

A temperature of 20-30°C is preferred along with proper humidity. At times of dry air, mist leaves. At times of extremely hot sun rays during the day, move the plant slightly away from direct sunlight.

Once the plant is mature, its bent stems at a time will need to be supported. Fasten them using stakes so they won’t snap. The flowers will still be visible.

Once the flowers wilt, remove the flower stems but not the leaves. The leaves are the energy reserves for the next flowering. Take out the yellow or wilted leaves so that the plant looks fresh and healthy.

After blooming, allow the plant to rest. Do not water and allow it to dry naturally. Place the bulb in a cool, dry place for 8-10 weeks to induce next year’s growth cycle. Ifafa yellow grows in the same weather

Check the plant for pests like aphids and mealybugs. Remove them by hand or use an organic pesticide if needed. Avoid fungal infections by providing it with good air circulation and low humidity.

Globba Schomburgkii is simple and rewarding to cultivate in India. Provide it with the right sunlight, water it from time to time, and provide it with fertilizer occasionally. With these easy steps, you can enjoy gorgeous flowers every year.
