Water the plant sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. Maintain moderate humidity levels to mimic its natural habitat.Suelo
Cussonia spicata prefers well-draining loam soil. Ensure the soil mix has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. A mix of sand and organic matter can help improve soil structure and drainage.Fertilizante
Fertilize Cussonia spicata with a balanced 10-10-10 fertilizer during the growing season. Apply the fertilizer sparingly, as the plant does not require high nutrient concentrations. Over-fertilization can harm the plant.Trasplante
