It likes the hotter temperatures of summer, with a suitable growing temperature of around 15 to 30 degrees. As long as the weather is not extreme, it can bloom without rest.

It likes light. During the flowering period, it is recommended to apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizer once a week, and avoid excessive nitrogen fertilizer causing leggy growth. Also, remember to repot into a larger flowerpot as it grows, otherwise it is prone to the situation of being root-bound and unable to bloom more flowers.</p><p><img src="https://www.nongxun.net/uploadfile/ueditor/image/202507/175248184226354f.jpg" title="fbbfc28afbcb8aaee2042e2db0e11363" alt="fbbfc28afbcb8aaee2042e2db0e11363"></p><p><br></p><p>Brazilian waterweed</p><p>Brazilian waterweed is a perennial herbaceous plant of the genus Aster in the Asteraceae family.
