Instructions d'entretien

Guazuma ulmifolia thrives in bright, direct sunlight and prefers moderate temperatures. It can tolerate dry conditions but benefits from occasional watering during prolonged dry spells. The tree does well in environments with moderate humidity.

Sol

This tree prefers well-draining loamy soil. It can tolerate a range of soil types but performs best in soils that are not waterlogged. Ensure the soil dries out almost completely between waterings to mimic its natural habitat.

Engrais

Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the tree during the growing season to support its development. Avoid over-fertilizing as it can lead to nutrient imbalances.

Rempotage

Repot young trees every 2-3 years to provide fresh soil and adequate space for root growth. For mature trees, repotting is less frequent but should be done if the tree becomes root-bound or the soil quality deteriorates.

Propagation

Guazuma ulmifolia can be propagated from seeds or cuttings. Seeds should be soaked in water for 24 hours before planting to improve germination rates. Cuttings should be taken from healthy, mature trees and planted in a well-draining soil mix.

Taille

Pruning is necessary to maintain the tree's shape and remove any dead or diseased branches. Prune during the dormant season or after the flowering period to encourage healthy growth.

Toxicité

Guazuma ulmifolia 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

Guazuma ulmifolia is often used in reforestation projects and as a shade tree in agroforestry systems. Its wood is durable and used for various purposes, including construction and furniture making. The tree also has medicinal properties and is used in traditional medicine.
