Instructions d'entretien

Crotalaria laburnifolia thrives in bright, direct sunlight and prefers moderate temperatures. It should be watered sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. The plant benefits from moderate humidity and should be kept in a well-ventilated area.

Sol

This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. A mix of garden soil with sand and organic matter works well.

Engrais

Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize the plant during the growing season, typically every 4-6 weeks, to promote healthy growth and flowering.

Rempotage

Repot Crotalaria laburnifolia 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. Repotting is best done in the early spring before the growing season begins.

Propagation

Propagate Crotalaria laburnifolia through seeds or cuttings. Seeds can be sown in a well-draining soil mix in the spring. Cuttings should be taken from healthy, non-flowering stems and rooted in a moist, well-draining medium.

Taille

Prune the plant regularly to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead or diseased branches and trim back leggy growth. Pruning is best done in the early spring before new growth starts.

Toxicité

Crotalaria laburnifolia is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. All parts of the plant contain toxic alkaloids that can cause liver damage and other health issues. Handle the plant with care and keep it out of reach of children and pets.
