Bleeding heart vine plant Care:

Here are some tips for caring for a climbing bleeding heart vine, also known as Clerodendrum thomsoniae or glory bower:

  • Sunlight: Plant in a location with bright light.
  • Soil: Use well-drained, humus-rich soil.
  • Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Water more frequently during dry weather.
  • Fertilizing: Feed the plant with a balanced fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. You can use a slow-release fertilizer every two months during the blooming season, or a water-soluble fertilizer every month.
  • Pruning: Prune the plant in late summer or going into fall to remove excess growth.
  • Pests: Use an insecticidal soap spray to keep mealybugs and spider mites in check. Reapply the spray every seven to ten days, or until the insects are eliminated.
  • Dormancy: Allow the plant to go dormant in an out-of-the-way spot.
  • Planting: You can plant the bleeding heart vine in the ground or in a container at the base of something it can cling to.
