DETALLES

Instrucciones de cuidado
Acanthophoenix rubra requires bright, direct sunlight and thrives in warm, humid conditions. It prefers consistently wet soil and should be watered regularly to maintain moisture. The plant does well in moderate to high temperatures and high humidity levels.
Suelo
This palm prefers loamy soil that is well-draining yet retains moisture. A soil mix that includes organic matter will help maintain the necessary nutrients and moisture levels. Ensure the soil is kept consistently wet but not waterlogged.
Fertilizante
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant every 2-3 months during the growing season to support its growth and maintain its vibrant appearance.
Trasplante
Repotting should be done every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its current container. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and ensure it has good drainage. Carefully transfer the plant to the new pot, adding fresh soil mix to support its growth.
Propagación
Propagation is typically done through seeds. Collect seeds from mature fruits and plant them in a well-draining soil mix. Keep the soil consistently moist and provide bright, indirect light. Germination can take several weeks to months.
Poda
Pruning is necessary to remove dead or damaged fronds and to maintain the plant's shape. Use clean, sharp tools to cut off the fronds at the base. Prune during the growing season for best results.
Toxicidad
Acanthophoenix rubra is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, the spiny trunk can cause physical injury if not handled carefully.
Adicional
This palm is relatively low-maintenance once established but requires attention to its water and light needs. It is best suited for outdoor growth in tropical climates and can be a striking addition to any landscape.
