DÉTAILS

Instructions d'entretien
Acorus calamus thrives in bright, indirect light and prefers moderate temperatures. It requires high humidity and should be kept in consistently wet soil. Regular watering is essential to maintain the moisture levels. The plant can be grown both indoors and outdoors, provided it is given the right conditions.
Sol
Acorus calamus prefers loamy soil that retains moisture well. The soil should be rich in nutrients and have good drainage to prevent waterlogging. A mix of garden soil, compost, and peat moss works well for this plant.
Engrais
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant every month during the growing season to ensure it gets the necessary nutrients for optimal growth.
Rempotage
Repot Acorus calamus every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its container. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Carefully remove the plant from its current pot, trim any dead roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil mix.
Propagation
Acorus calamus can be propagated by division. The best time to propagate is during the spring. Carefully divide the rhizomes, ensuring each section has roots and shoots. Plant the divisions in separate pots or directly in the ground.
Taille
Pruning is necessary to remove dead or damaged leaves and to maintain the plant's shape. Prune during the growing season by cutting back the leaves to the base. This encourages new growth and keeps the plant healthy.
Toxicité
Acorus calamus is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The rhizomes contain compounds that can cause nausea, vomiting, and other symptoms. Handle the plant with care and keep it out of reach of children and pets.
Supplémentaire
Acorus calamus has been used in traditional medicine for its purported benefits, including digestive aid and anti-inflammatory properties. However, due to its toxicity, it should be used with caution and under professional guidance.
