The important thing is that it allows excess water to drain, not causing water stagnation.<br \/>The <u>soil pH<\/u> it should be neutral or subacid.

It can take up to 2-3 months for the sprouts to appear.<br \/>They can be sown directly in small pots, perhaps putting 2-3 seeds per pot, using a <u>mix of peat and perlite (found here)<\/u>.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Trapianto\">Transplant<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The definitive transplant in the garden should be done in the following spring, therefore after a year of growth in pot.  Young boldo seedlings in containers should be cared for by keeping them in a half-shade position, with moist soil in summer, protected indoors in winter.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Irrigazione\">Irrigation<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The boldo loves regular watering in the summer months, especially if there is great drought and high temperatures.
