Instructions d'entretien

Ficus altissima prefers bright, indirect light and should be kept in a location that receives several hours of light each day. It thrives in warm, humid conditions and should be kept in moderate temperatures. Regular watering is essential to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid waterlogging.

Sol

This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil that retains moisture without becoming waterlogged. A mix of potting soil with some perlite or sand can help improve drainage. Ensure the soil remains consistently moist but not soggy.

Engrais

Ficus altissima benefits from regular feeding during the growing season. Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 every 4-6 weeks to support healthy growth. Reduce feeding during the dormant season.

Rempotage

Repot Ficus altissima every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current pot. Choose a pot that is one size larger and ensure it has good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, loosen the roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.

Propagation

Ficus altissima can be propagated through stem cuttings. Take cuttings in the spring or early summer, dip the cut end in rooting hormone, and plant it in a well-draining soil mix. Keep the soil moist and provide bright, indirect light until roots develop.

Taille

Pruning is necessary to maintain the shape and size of Ficus altissima. Prune in the spring or early summer by cutting back any overgrown or leggy branches. Use clean, sharp tools to make clean cuts and encourage new growth.

Toxicité

Ficus altissima is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The sap can cause skin irritation, and ingestion can lead to gastrointestinal issues. Keep this plant out of reach of children and pets.

Supplémentaire

Ficus altissima can be grown both indoors and outdoors, making it a versatile plant. Ensure it has enough space to grow if planted outdoors, as it can become quite large. Regular misting can help maintain humidity levels, especially in drier indoor environments.
