DÉTAILS

Instructions d'entretien
Lycianthes rantonnetii requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and should be protected from frost. The plant thrives in environments with moderate humidity. Regular watering is necessary, but the soil should be allowed to dry out partially between waterings. Pruning is recommended to maintain its shape and encourage blooming.
Sol
This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil. It can tolerate a range of soil types but performs best in soil that retains some moisture without becoming waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.
Engrais
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 is suitable for Lycianthes rantonnetii. Fertilize the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and flowering.
Rempotage
Repotting should be done every 1-2 years or when the plant outgrows its current container. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one 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
Lycianthes rantonnetii can be propagated through cuttings. Take semi-hardwood cuttings in late 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 place the cutting in a bright, indirect light until roots develop.
Taille
Pruning is essential to maintain the shape and encourage blooming. Prune the plant in early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead or damaged branches and trim back any overgrown areas to promote a bushier appearance.
Toxicité
Lycianthes rantonnetii is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. All parts of the plant contain toxic alkaloids that can cause gastrointestinal distress, vomiting, and diarrhea. Keep the plant out of reach of children and pets.
Supplémentaire
Lycianthes rantonnetii can be grown both indoors and outdoors. When grown indoors, ensure it receives ample sunlight and is placed in a well-ventilated area. Regularly check for pests such as aphids and spider mites, and treat them promptly to prevent infestations.
