DÉTAILS

Instructions d'entretien
The rubber tree requires bright, direct sunlight and high humidity. It thrives in warm temperatures and needs consistently moist soil. Regular watering and maintaining a humid environment are crucial for its growth.
Récolte
Hevea brasiliensis, commonly known as the rubber tree, is typically harvested for its latex. The harvesting process, known as tapping, involves making a series of incisions on the bark of the tree to collect the latex sap. Tapping is usually done early in the morning when the internal pressure of the tree is highest. The latex is collected in cups attached to the tree and is then processed to produce natural rubber. It is important to rotate the tapping areas to avoid damaging the tree and to allow for recovery. The first harvest can generally be expected around 6-7 years after planting, and the tree can be tapped for latex for up to 30 years.
Sol
Hevea brasiliensis prefers loamy soil that is well-draining yet retains moisture. The soil should be rich in organic matter to support its nutrient needs.
Engrais
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant regularly during the growing season to support its rapid growth.
Rempotage
Repot the rubber tree when it outgrows its current container. Choose a larger pot with good drainage and fresh, nutrient-rich soil. Handle the roots carefully to avoid damage.
Propagation
Propagate Hevea brasiliensis through seeds or cuttings. The best time to propagate is during the growing season. Ensure the cuttings or seeds are kept in a warm, humid environment to encourage rooting.
Taille
Prune the rubber tree to maintain its shape and remove any dead or diseased branches. Pruning should be done during the dormant season to minimize stress on the plant.
Toxicité
Hevea brasiliensis is toxic to pets and humans. The latex sap can cause skin irritation and allergic reactions. Ingestion of any part of the plant can lead to gastrointestinal distress.
Supplémentaire
Regularly check for pests and diseases, as the rubber tree can be susceptible to infestations. Ensure the plant has adequate space to grow, as it can become quite large.
