Instructions d'entretien
Streptocarpus ionanthus prefers bright, indirect light and moderate temperatures. It thrives in environments with moderate humidity. Water the plant when the top layer of soil feels dry, but avoid waterlogging. Regularly remove dead leaves and spent flowers to encourage new growth.Sol
This plant prefers a well-draining, loamy soil mix. A mix designed for African violets works well. Ensure the soil is kept slightly moist but not waterlogged to prevent root rot.Engrais
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize every two weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.Rempotage
Repot Streptocarpus ionanthus every year or when it outgrows its pot. 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, shake off excess soil, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.Propagation
Propagate Streptocarpus ionanthus through leaf cuttings or division. The best time to propagate is during the spring or early summer. For leaf cuttings, cut a healthy leaf and place it in a moist soil mix. For division, carefully separate the plant into smaller sections and replant them.Taille
Prune the plant regularly to remove dead or yellowing leaves and spent flowers. This encourages new growth and helps maintain the plant's shape. Pruning can be done throughout the year as needed.Toxicité
Streptocarpus ionanthus is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always a good practice to keep plants out of reach of pets and children to avoid any accidental ingestion.RÉVOLUTIONNEZ LE SOIN DE VOS PLANTES
