Instrucciones de cuidado
Peregrina requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth and should be placed in a location where it can receive at least six hours of sunlight daily. It prefers moderate temperatures and moderate humidity levels. Water the plant when the soil is almost completely dry, but avoid waterlogging.Suelo
Jatropha integerrima prefers well-draining loamy soil. Ensure the soil mix allows for good drainage to prevent root rot. A mix of garden soil with sand or perlite can be used to improve drainage.Fertilizante
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and flowering.Trasplante
Repot Peregrina every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current pot. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and ensure it has good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, shake off excess soil, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil mix.Propagación
Jatropha integerrima can be propagated through cuttings. Take semi-hardwood cuttings during the growing season, dip the cut end in rooting hormone, and plant it in a well-draining soil mix. Keep the soil moist and place the cutting in a bright, indirect light until roots develop.Poda
Prune Peregrina to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Pruning can be done after the flowering period. Remove any dead or damaged branches and trim back any overgrown areas to promote new growth.Toxicidad
Jatropha integerrima is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. All parts of the plant contain toxic compounds that can cause gastrointestinal distress, vomiting, and diarrhea. Handle the plant with care and keep it out of reach of children and pets.REVOLUCIONE EL CUIDADO DE SUS PLANTAS
