Growth CharacteristicsLycopus lucidus grows to a height of approximately 30 to 60 cm. Its leaves are arranged opposite each other and have coarse, serrated margins. It blooms with small white flowers from summer to autumn, which are densely clustered at the top of the stem.

Propagation MethodsEasy propagation methods include seed sowing and root cuttings. Seeds mature in the autumn; they can be harvested and sown immediately or the following spring. Root cuttings can be performed in spring or autumn; simply cut off a portion of the root and replant it.

Cultivation MethodsLycopus lucidus thrives in moist locations or near water, requiring fertile and well-drained soil. While it prefers sunlight, it can grow sufficiently in partial shade. As it likes water, it requires a sufficient water supply during cultivation. Garden Use

Important Pests and Control Methods

Aphids can be controlled using soapy water or insecticides, while for rust, it is recommended to periodically check the plant's condition and apply an appropriate fungicide from the early stages of infestation. It is important to always monitor the plant's health and take prompt action if any abnormalities are found on the leaves or stems.
