- 1). Select a planting location with full sun exposure; Neptunia dimorphantha performs best in sites that receive direct sunlight for more than six hours each day. Plant neptunia dimorphantha near a tree, fence, trellis, arbor or pergola to take advantage of its attractive, trailing habit.
- 2). Till 4 inches peat moss, 3 inches aged compost and 1 inch perlite into the soil in your garden bed before planting the neptunia dimorphantha seed. Incorporate the organic materials to a depth of 6 inches.
- 3). Plant the neptunia dimorphantha seed under 2 inches of soil in the center of the prepared garden bed.
- 4). Irrigate the garden bed with up to 1/2 gallon of water to moisten the soil after planting. Continue to provide the plant with regular supplemental irrigation while it is actively growing and flowering. Give neptunia dimorphantha up to 1 gallon of water each time you irrigate. Maintain soil that's moist, but never waterlogged.
- 5). Fertilize neptunia dimorphantha once it reaches 8 to 10 inches in height. Feed the plant with a balanced, water-soluble garden fertilizer, applied according to label directions.
