I would really appreciate any advice on how to make this plant more bushy. If anyone has any suggestions, I would love to hear them!
Kendra Campbell
Here are some techniques I often use to make my plant bushy:
When it's still young and actively growing, I gently pinch the tips to encourage bushing. I also remove any dead or slightly wilted flowers to keep it looking its best. I make sure to provide plenty of sunlight to prevent leggy growth and use the right fertilizer, especially during the growing season, with liquid fertilizer. I also make sure to move it to a large, wide pot that has good drainage.

Absolutely! All you need is a little tender loving care and a bit of NPK fertilizer, maybe a ratio of 10-10-10 or 20-20-20.
