It is possible to group the soil from two parts of the garden earth, one part of the sheet earth and sand. The soil oversaturated by lime is unsuitable for kislitsa. If to replace kislitsa in different periods, then it is possible to achieve that blossoming in different pots will be constant.
2. As the kislitsa has quite small root system, pots have to be small. For change choose ceramic pots only three centimeters bigger than previous.
