Radermachera China Doll

China Doll is a lush plant thats well suited to growing indoors and out. The foliage is very attractive and quite delicate, with glossy, mid-green leaves deeply divided into leaflets, it has a lovely bushy upright growth habit that really gives that 'Jungle' feel. Perfect for pots indoors, by the front door or on the patio, it’s also an excellent addition to shady areas in the garden although it may exceed the growth expectations of those grown indoors. Indoors, a bright indirect spot is ideal, with some morning sun for extra growth. For enhanced growth and flowering we recommend using Troforte M Indoor & Patio Slow Release fertiliser. China Doll can reach up to 30m height outdoors in ideal conditions, but will max out around 1.5-2m indoors and similar width.

Water: With a preference for moisture during the growing season, water well when the top 1-2cm of soil becomes dry. Foliage will become limp and dull green in extreme dehydration, soak the root ball for 1-2 hours before draining well.

Sun: Indoors bright indirect to morning full sun (North, South or East facing windows). Keep out of Westerly facing windows or afternoon sun exposure. Outdoors in most positions, with less sun to keep smaller.

Soil: In the garden a fertile, well-draining soil enriched with organic matter. We recommend using Aussie Organics Premium Soil Conditioner and Charlie Charcoal prior to planting. Indoors a well-draining, fertile indoor mix. We recommend using The Home Plant Co Indoor Potting Mix.
