order: fabales
family: fabaceae
genus: tamarindus
species: indica
Sown deep in the winter on 9 january 2013, many tamarind seeds saved from the Christmas meal successfully struck. The soft pinnate leaves are photosensitive. They close upwards when dark and open flat again by light. Stems turned woody in a short period of time. Growth is moderately vigorous. As of mid-october, the tallest plant measures 30cm. Their need for water is moderate. They can withstand some drought, but do not let dry for long. Aphids grow very fat by feeding on their sap. Find a way to get rid of them, if they found their ways onto your plants. Keep the plants above 7°C. Ideal soil pH is 5.5. So whenever possible, use acid fertiliser and limefree water.
