Difficulty Growing Shamrock Plant
I have a maroon shamrock that I cannot grow. I keep it in a well lit place. It will do beautiful, and then it goes crazy and dies.
Keep the soil slightly moist to keep this plant happy. Fertilize growing plants with a dilute solution of any flowering houseplant fertilizer. It is normal for these plants to go dormant for a short period. Reduce watering frequency as the leaves start to yellow and dry. Place the plant in a cool dark location until new growth begins. Then bring it back into the sunlight, start watering and enjoy the show.
