Instructions d'entretien
To care for Epiphyllum oxypetalum, provide it with bright, indirect light and maintain moderate temperatures. Water the plant when the soil partially dries out, and ensure it has good humidity levels. This plant can be grown both indoors and outdoors, but it should be protected from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Sol
Epiphyllum oxypetalum prefers well-draining loamy soil. A mix designed for cacti and succulents, with added organic matter, works well. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.
Engrais
Fertilize Epiphyllum oxypetalum with a balanced 10-10-10 fertilizer during the growing season. Apply the fertilizer every 4-6 weeks to support healthy growth and flowering. Reduce feeding during the plant's dormancy period.
Rempotage
Repot Epiphyllum oxypetalum every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its pot. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Repotting is best done in the spring before the growing season begins. Handle the plant carefully to avoid damaging its roots.
Propagation
Propagate Epiphyllum oxypetalum through stem cuttings. Take cuttings in the spring or early summer, allow them to callous over for a few days, and then plant them in a well-draining soil mix. Keep the cuttings in a warm, humid environment until they root.
Taille
Prune Epiphyllum oxypetalum to maintain its shape and encourage new growth. Pruning is best done after the flowering period. Remove any dead or damaged stems, and trim back overgrown areas to promote a bushier appearance.
Toxicité
Epiphyllum oxypetalum is not toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always a good idea to keep plants out of reach of pets and children to prevent any accidental ingestion.
Supplémentaire
Epiphyllum oxypetalum is known for its spectacular night-blooming flowers, which can be a highlight in any garden or indoor space. To encourage blooming, provide the plant with a period of cooler temperatures and reduced watering during its dormancy period.
