Sunlight: Russelia equisetiformis thrives in full sun. Make sure to plant it in a location where it receives at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight each day.
Watering: While firecracker plants are drought-tolerant once established, they prefer regular watering, especially during periods of dry weather. Water the plant deeply but infrequently, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot.
Soil: Ensure that the soil is well-draining to prevent waterlogging, which can be detrimental to the plant's health. Sandy or loamy soils are ideal. If planting in containers, use a potting mix formulated for good drainage.
Fertilization: Russelia equisetiformis generally does not require heavy fertilization. A balanced, slow-release fertilizer applied in spring can help promote healthy growth and blooming. Follow the instructions on the fertilizer package for application rates.
