Light: When growing Madagascar periwinkle in summer, be careful to avoid direct strong sunlight at midday, and let it receive plenty of light in the morning and evening when the light is relatively weaker. Watering: In summer, transpiration is high and its demand for water is also greater, so it should be watered once every one to two days, and the leaves should be misted frequently, but remember that the potting soil must not become waterlogged.

I. Light

Madagascar periwinkle is a relatively easy-to-grow flower that tends to fill out abundantly. When growing it in summer, be careful to avoid direct strong sunlight at midday; provide shade at noon or move it elsewhere, and in the morning and evening, when the light is relatively weaker, let it receive plenty of light, so that the flowers will be large and brightly colored.

II. Watering

In summer the temperature is too high and transpiration is high, so Madagascar periwinkle has a relatively high demand for water. Therefore, you must frequently mist the leaves to keep the potting soil moist and also increase the humidity of the surrounding air. The number of waterings should be increased to once every one to two days, but by no means should the amount of water be too large, and the water temperature had best be close to the air temperature. In addition, be careful that the potting soil must not become waterlogged.
