DÉTAILS

Instructions d'entretien
Corsican mint prefers moderate temperatures and indirect bright light. It thrives in environments with high humidity and should be kept evenly moist. Regular watering is essential, but avoid waterlogging the soil. The plant can be grown both indoors and outdoors, making it versatile for various settings.
Sol
Mentha requienii prefers well-draining loamy soil that retains moisture without becoming waterlogged. A soil mix that includes organic matter will help maintain the necessary moisture levels. Ensure the soil pH is slightly acidic to neutral for optimal growth.
Engrais
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-5. Fertilize the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of the plant's overall health.
Rempotage
Repot Corsican mint every 1-2 years or when it outgrows its current container. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, shake off excess soil, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil mix. Water thoroughly after repotting.
Propagation
Propagate Mentha requienii through stem cuttings or division. Take stem cuttings in the spring or early summer and root them in water or a moist soil mix. For division, separate the plant into smaller sections, ensuring each section has roots, and replant them in suitable soil.
Taille
Prune Corsican mint regularly to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Trim back any leggy or overgrown stems, and remove any dead or damaged foliage. Pruning can be done throughout the growing season as needed.
Toxicité
Mentha requienii is non-toxic to pets and humans. It is safe to grow in households with animals and children. However, as with any plant, it is best to prevent excessive ingestion.
Supplémentaire
Corsican mint is often used as a ground cover due to its low-growing habit and pleasant aroma. It can also be used in culinary applications, such as flavoring desserts and beverages. Regular maintenance and care will ensure the plant remains healthy and vibrant.
