Henna tree Lawsonia inermis
« on: December 27, 2022, 07:29:15 PM »
Does anyone own a Henna tree? I picked one up the other day as I thought it would make a good conversation piece in my plant collection. Any good soil recommendations?

I just sprouted some from seeds, so I do not have any personal insight yet on growing henna, however I did do a little research and found the site below. It has links at the bottom of the page to additional information about henna. As to soil, I only found mention of potting soil if growing indoors. Most importantly seems to be to let it dry out before watering to mimic the monsoon climate it is used to. Good luck!
