DÉTAILS

Instructions d'entretien
Fan Aloe requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth and should be placed in a location where it can receive at least six hours of sunlight daily. It prefers moderate temperatures and low humidity. Water the plant sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal issues.
Sol
Kumara plicatilis thrives in well-draining, sandy soil. A cactus or succulent mix is ideal, as it provides the necessary drainage to prevent root rot. Avoid using heavy or clay soils, as they retain too much moisture.
Engrais
Fertilize the Fan Aloe sparingly, using a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 2-7-7. Apply the fertilizer during the growing season, typically in spring and early summer, and avoid fertilizing during the dormancy period.
Rempotage
Repot the Fan Aloe every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current container. Choose a pot with drainage holes and use a well-draining soil mix. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, shake off excess soil, and place it in the new pot, filling in with fresh soil.
Propagation
Propagate Kumara plicatilis through offsets or seeds. Offsets can be removed from the parent plant and planted in a well-draining soil mix. Allow the offsets to dry for a day before planting to prevent rot. Seeds can be sown in a sandy soil mix and kept in a warm, bright location until they germinate.
Taille
Prune the Fan Aloe to remove dead or damaged leaves and to maintain its shape. Pruning is best done during the growing season. Use clean, sharp tools to make clean cuts and avoid damaging the plant.
Toxicité
Kumara plicatilis is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always best to keep plants out of reach of pets and children to prevent any accidental ingestion.
Supplémentaire
Fan Aloe is a relatively low-maintenance plant that can add a unique architectural element to your garden or indoor space. Ensure it receives plenty of sunlight and avoid overwatering to keep it healthy and thriving.
