Instructions d'entretien

Nymphaea nouchali requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It thrives in warm, humid conditions and prefers temperatures that are consistently moderate. The plant should be kept in waterlogged soil or shallow water, and it benefits from regular fertilization during the growing season.

Sol

This water lily prefers loamy soil that is consistently wet or even submerged. Good drainage is not a concern as the plant thrives in waterlogged conditions. A rich, nutrient-dense soil mix will support its growth.

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 vigorous growth and flowering. Slow-release fertilizer tablets can be placed in the soil near the roots.

Rempotage

Repot Nymphaea nouchali every 1-2 years or when the plant outgrows its container. Repotting is best done in the spring. Carefully remove the plant from its current container, trim any dead or decaying roots, and place it in a larger container with fresh soil.

Propagation

Propagate Nymphaea nouchali by dividing the tubers. This is best done in the spring when the plant is emerging from dormancy. Carefully separate the tubers, ensuring each division has at least one growing point, and plant them in individual containers.

Taille

Prune Nymphaea nouchali regularly to remove dead or yellowing leaves and spent flowers. This helps maintain the plant's health and encourages new growth. Pruning is best done during the growing season.

Toxicité

Nymphaea nouchali is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always advisable to handle all plants with care and avoid ingestion.

Supplémentaire

Ensure the plant has ample space to spread its leaves and flowers. Regularly check for pests such as aphids and treat them promptly to prevent infestations. The plant can be sensitive to sudden changes in water quality, so maintain a stable aquatic environment.
