DÉTAILS

Instructions d'entretien
Afzelia quanzensis requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It thrives in warm temperatures and moderate humidity. Watering should be done sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. The tree is well-suited for outdoor growth in tropical climates.
Sol
The tree prefers well-draining loam soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. It can tolerate nutrient-poor soils but benefits from moderate nutrient concentration. Good drainage is essential to prevent waterlogging.
Engrais
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 can be applied during the growing season to support healthy growth. Fertilization should be done sparingly, as the tree does not require high nutrient levels.
Rempotage
Afzelia quanzensis is not typically grown in pots, so repotting is not applicable. However, if grown in a container during the early stages, it should be transplanted to the ground once it outgrows the pot.
Propagation
Propagation is typically done through seeds. Seeds should be sown in well-draining soil and kept in a warm, sunny location. Germination can take several weeks. Seedlings should be transplanted to their permanent location once they are strong enough.
Taille
Pruning is necessary to maintain the shape and health of the tree. It should be done during the dormant season to remove dead or diseased branches and to shape the tree. Regular pruning helps in promoting healthy growth.
Toxicité
Afzelia quanzensis is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, as with any plant, it is advisable to prevent pets and children from ingesting any part of the tree.
Supplémentaire
Afzelia quanzensis is highly valued for its durable and attractive wood, which is used in furniture, flooring, and construction. The tree also plays a role in traditional medicine in some African cultures.
