Instructions d'entretien
Horsetail prefers bright, indirect light and can tolerate some shade. It thrives in moderate temperatures and high humidity. Keep the soil consistently wet, as this plant naturally grows in waterlogged conditions. Regularly check the moisture level to ensure it does not dry out.Sol
Horsetail prefers loamy soil that retains moisture well. It can tolerate a range of soil types but thrives best in nutrient-rich, well-draining soil. Ensure the soil remains consistently wet to mimic its natural habitat.Engrais
Horsetail does not require regular fertilization. If desired, a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer can be applied sparingly during the growing season to support its growth.Rempotage
Repot horsetail every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its container. Choose a pot with good drainage and use a loamy soil mix. Carefully divide the rhizomes if the plant has become too dense.Propagation
Horsetail can be propagated by division. The best time to propagate is during the spring or early summer. Carefully separate the rhizomes and replant them in moist soil. Ensure each division has a few stems and roots attached.Taille
Pruning is necessary to maintain the plant's appearance and control its spread. Trim back any dead or damaged stems at the base. Regular pruning can also help manage its invasive tendencies.Toxicité
Horsetail is not toxic to pets or humans. However, it contains thiaminase, which can break down thiamine (vitamin B1) if consumed in large quantities. It is generally safe but should not be ingested in large amounts.Supplémentaire
Horsetail has been used historically for its medicinal properties and as a natural abrasive for cleaning due to its high silica content. It is also known for its ability to stabilize soil and prevent erosion in wetland areas.RÉVOLUTIONNEZ LE SOIN DE VOS PLANTES
