According to legend, in fact, it seems that the Rose of Jericho bloomed regularly when the Messiah was still alive on the cross, but at the very moment of his death it suddenly withered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMysteriously, the Rose returned to life after the resurrection of Christ and from that moment on became the ultimate symbol of the rebirth of humanity. For this reason, it is also called the resurrection plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndeed, if you observe it, the Rose of Jericho remains curled up when it has no water available and opens up again as soon as it is watered. Even its color changes from shades of brown to deep green, which is also its original color.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerhaps this is why the aura of positivity that surrounds this special plant has remained intact to this day. In Europe, in fact, growing a Rose of Jericho at home means inviting happiness within the home. In short, the presence of this plant has always been associated with serenity, peace, and resurrection, and is a symbol of long life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmong some peoples, even today, branches and flowers of the Rose of Jericho are placed in bowls full of water on Christmas or Easter, in remembrance of the martyrdom of Jesus Christ for Christians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration:underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRose of Jericho cultivation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rose of Jericho or Jericho is a plant native to the Middle East whose botanical name is Anastatica hierochuntica. It belongs to the Brassicaceae family and is often confused with Selaginella lepidophylla, which is very similar to the Rose of Jericho but larger and with different botanical characteristics. For this reason, most of the plants available in stores are actually false Roses of Jericho.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt first glance, the Rose of Jericho appears as a bulb. It is precisely the irrigation water, in relation to temperature and quantity, that determines the color of the plant. Learning to respect its natural cycles is therefore essential to grow it optimally.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe irrigation water must thoroughly wet all the roots, but it must not remain in contact with the bulb for more than 3 consecutive days. After this period, the plant must dry out completely, and little by little you will see it open up and change color. When the plant is completely open, it demonstrates a formidable ability to absorb bad odors from the surrounding environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSubsequently, the Rose of Jericho will dry out completely until it takes on an appearance very similar to the one it had at the time of purchase. At this point, you can decide to keep it dehydrated or put it back in water. In the latter case, wait at least 15 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is because, being a desert plant, the Rose of Jericho is very well suited to aridity and hot climates, so it can live without being watered for a very long time. It dies with the arrival of the dry season and blooms again with the first rain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy following its rhythm of opening and closing cyclically with the right supply of water, you can preserve your Rose of Jericho in all its beauty for a very long time, or even forever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration:underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRose of Jericho: how to make it bloom?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGiven these premises, please note that to make your Rose of Jericho bloom, you will need to immerse it in a bowl or a saucer with half a centimeter of warm water. The outside temperature must be at least 15 degrees Celsius, and the ideal habitat is quite humid, bright, and ventilated. As the drier season approaches, the plant will begin to thin out, and the branches will retract until they form a compact spherical mass. In this way, the Rose of Jericho closes around its seeds, protecting them inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere, the seeds will remain dormant but will return to being perfectly vital and ready for reproduction at each new bloom. Alternatively, the plant can also be propagated by separating the bulbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSource: https:\/\/www.tuttogreen.it\/rosa-di-gerico-coltivazione\/\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tempo del Sogno","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54839981867349,"sku":"CC-RosaJerichoRegalo","price":18.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1071\/0849\/9797\/files\/rosa-di-jericho-la-pianta-della-rinascita-confezione-regalo_8bc824f8-a5db-49e8-9ad8-c2f1f6bd52fb.jpg?v=1788458697","url":"https:\/\/tempodelsogno.it\/en\/products\/rosa-di-jericho-la-pianta-della-rinascita-confezione-regalo","provider":"Tempo del Sogno","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
