Motia blooms profusely in the summer season in Karachi. Needs full sun, good fertilization, pruning in winter, and by the summer time...May, June and July...you get the reward.

In March end, prune your motia to 1/4 size of the plant.. hoe the soil near the plant (if in ground 6" deep and if in pot 2" deep).. mix lots of ojhri ki khaad and water next day.. you will have great blooms for next 2-3 months.. repeat the procedure in July...

these are nocturnal beetles which are causing the damage.. buy any general purpose pesticide from the garden shop and start spraying the recommended concentration every third day in the evening for 15 days.. dont wash your plants..
