Instrucciones de cuidado
Ficus maclellandii prefers bright, indirect light and should be kept in a location where it can receive several hours of light each day. It thrives in moderate temperatures and high humidity. Water the plant regularly to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Avoid placing it in drafty areas or near heating vents.Suelo
This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil that retains moisture without becoming waterlogged. A mix of potting soil with perlite or sand can help improve drainage. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent water from accumulating at the bottom.Fertilizante
Fertilize Ficus maclellandii with a balanced 10-10-10 fertilizer every month during the growing season. Reduce the frequency of fertilization during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.Trasplante
Repot the plant every 2-3 years or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is one size larger than the current one and ensure it has good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, loosen the roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.Propagación
Ficus maclellandii can be propagated through stem cuttings. Take a cutting with at least one leaf node, dip the cut end in rooting hormone, and plant it in a pot with moist soil. Keep the cutting in a warm, humid environment until it establishes roots.Poda
Prune the plant to maintain its shape and remove any dead or damaged leaves. Pruning can be done throughout the year, but it is best to do it during the growing season. Use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to make clean cuts.Toxicidad
Ficus maclellandii is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The sap can cause skin irritation, so it is advisable to wear gloves when handling the plant. Keep it out of reach of children and pets.REVOLUCIONE EL CUIDADO DE SUS PLANTAS
