Instructions d'entretien

Gypsophila repens thrives in temperate climates with moderate temperatures. It prefers full sun exposure and should be watered sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. The plant does well in average humidity levels and can tolerate a range of temperatures, though it prefers cooler conditions.

Sol

This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil with a neutral pH. It can tolerate poor soil conditions but performs best in moderately fertile soil. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.

Engrais

Gypsophila repens benefits from a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize once in the early spring to promote healthy growth and flowering.

Rempotage

Repotting is generally not necessary for Gypsophila repens as it is typically grown outdoors. However, if grown in containers, repot every 2-3 years in the early spring, ensuring the new pot has good drainage.

Propagation

Propagation can be done through seed or cuttings. Sow seeds in the early spring or take softwood cuttings in late spring to early summer. Ensure the cuttings are kept in a humid environment until they root.

Taille

Pruning is recommended to maintain the plant's shape and encourage new growth. Trim back after flowering to remove spent blooms and any leggy growth.

Toxicité

Gypsophila repens is not toxic to pets or humans. It is safe to grow in gardens where children and pets are present.

Supplémentaire

Gypsophila repens is a low-maintenance plant that is ideal for rock gardens, borders, and as ground cover. It is drought-tolerant once established and can handle poor soil conditions, making it a versatile addition to many garden settings.
