🌿 Brahma Kamal (White) Plant Care Guide
☀️ 1. Light Requirements
Ideal: Bright indirect sunlight or partial shade.
Avoid: Harsh, direct afternoon sunlight in low-altitude areas—it may burn the leaves.
In native habitats (Himalayas), it naturally grows under cool, diffused light.
🌡️ 2. Temperature
Prefers cool temperatures between 10°C – 20°C.
Not tolerant of extreme heat; best grown in cooler regions or in a controlled indoor setting.
In warmer climates, keep in a shaded balcony, greenhouse, or airy indoor space.
🪴 3. Soil
Use well-draining, loamy or sandy soil rich in organic matter.
A mix of garden soil + cocopeat + compost + sand works well.
Avoid clay-heavy soil or poor drainage—this causes root rot.
💧 4. Watering
Water moderately — the soil should be kept slightly moist but never soggy.
Allow topsoil to dry between waterings.
Reduce watering during colder months.
✅ Tip: Overwatering is one of the most common mistakes with this plant.
🌱 5. Fertilization
Use a balanced, organic fertilizer (like compost or vermicompost) once a month during the growing season (spring to early autumn).
Avoid overfeeding. This is a slow-growing alpine plant.
✂️ 6. Pruning & Maintenance
Remove dead leaves and spent flowers to maintain plant health and appearance.
Keep the plant clean and free from pests (inspect regularly).
Trim gently — the plant is delicate.
