Melaleuca alternifolia, commonly known as Tea Tree, is a shrub native to Australia. It belongs to the Myrtaceae family and is well-known for its essential oil, which has antiseptic properties. The plant thrives in subtropical climates and is typically found in swampy areas. It is an evergreen shrub that can grow up to 7 meters tall.
Tea Tree plants prefer bright, direct sunlight and moderate temperatures. They thrive in humid environments and should be watered when the soil partially dries out. Regular pruning helps maintain their shape and encourages new growth.
تربة
Tea Tree plants prefer well-draining loamy soil. The soil should be kept moderately moist but not waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.
سماد
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant during the growing season, typically in spring and summer, to promote healthy growth.
إعادة السمعة
Repot Tea Tree plants every 2-3 years or when they outgrow their current container. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage and use fresh, well-draining soil.
الانتشار
Tea Tree plants can be propagated through seeds or cuttings. The best time to propagate is in spring or early summer. For cuttings, use semi-hardwood cuttings and root them in a well-draining soil mix.
تشذيب
Prune Tea Tree plants regularly to maintain their shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead or diseased branches and trim back overgrown areas.
تسمم
Tea Tree plants are not toxic to pets or humans. However, the essential oil extracted from the plant should not be ingested and should be used with caution.
