Tigridia pavonia, commonly known as the Peacock Flower or Tiger Flower, is a bulbous geophyte native to Mexico and Central America. It belongs to the Iridaceae family and is known for its striking, colorful flowers that resemble a tiger's eye. The plant thrives in subtropical climates and has a dormancy period during the cooler months.
Tigridia pavonia requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and high humidity. Water the plant regularly, allowing the soil to dry out partially between waterings. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases.
تربة
The plant prefers well-draining loam soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Good drainage is essential to prevent bulb rot. A mix of garden soil, sand, and organic matter works well.
سماد
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and flowering.
إعادة السمعة
Repot Tigridia pavonia bulbs every 2-3 years or when they outgrow their container. Repot during the dormancy period, ensuring the new pot has good drainage. Handle the bulbs carefully to avoid damage.
الانتشار
Propagate Tigridia pavonia by dividing the bulbs during the dormancy period. Separate the offsets from the parent bulb and plant them in well-draining soil. Water sparingly until new growth appears.
تشذيب
Pruning is not typically required for Tigridia pavonia. Remove spent flowers and dead foliage to maintain the plant's appearance and health.
تسمم
Tigridia pavonia is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always advisable to keep plants out of reach of pets and children to prevent accidental ingestion.
إضافي
Tigridia pavonia flowers are short-lived, typically lasting only a day, but the plant produces multiple blooms over the flowering season. Plant the bulbs in groups for a more dramatic display. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.
