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 surrounding this special plant has remained intact to this day. In Europe, growing a Jericho rose at home is believed to bring happiness to the household. In short, this plant has always been associated with serenity, peace, and resurrection, and is a symbol of longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmong some peoples, even today, Jericho rose branches and flowers are placed in bowls filled with water at Christmas or Easter to commemorate the martyrdom of Jesus Christ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration:underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJericho rose cultivation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Jericho rose, or Jericho rose, 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 Jericho rose but larger and with different botanical characteristics. For this reason, most of the plants available commercially are actually false Jericho roses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt first glance, the Jericho rose looks like a bulb. It is the irrigation water, specifically its temperature and quantity, that determines the plant’s color. Learning to respect its natural cycles is therefore essential for growing it properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe irrigation water should 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 fully open, it demonstrates a remarkable ability to absorb unpleasant odors from the surrounding environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Jericho rose will then dry out completely until it looks very similar to how it did when you first bought it. 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, as a desert plant, the Jericho rose is well suited to arid and scorching 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 cycle of opening and closing with the right amount of water, you can preserve your Jericho rose 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\u003eJericho rose: how to make it bloom?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGiven these premises, to make your Jericho rose bloom, you must immerse it in a bowl or pot with half a centimeter of warm water. The outside temperature must be at least 15 degrees Celsius, and the ideal environment is fairly humid, bright, and well-ventilated. As the driest season approaches, the plant will begin to thin out, and the branches will recede until they form a compact spherical mass. In this way, the Jericho rose closes around its seeds, protecting them inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere, the seeds will remain dormant but will become perfectly viable and ready to reproduce with 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":"S","offer_id":54839981769045,"sku":null,"price":8.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"M","offer_id":54839981801813,"sku":null,"price":10.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"L","offer_id":54839981834581,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"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_0d98e2ab-b9fa-446f-9478-e6ea3539fbf5.jpg?v=1788458698","url":"https:\/\/tempodelsogno.it\/en\/products\/rosa-di-jericho-la-pianta-della-rinascita","provider":"Tempo del Sogno","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
