Instructions d'entretien
Thaumatococcus daniellii requires bright, indirect light and thrives in warm, humid conditions. It prefers consistently moist soil and should be watered regularly to maintain high soil moisture. The plant does well in moderate temperatures and high humidity, making it suitable for tropical environments.Récolte
Thaumatococcus daniellii, commonly known as the miracle berry plant, is typically harvested for its fruits and leaves. The fruits are ready for harvest approximately one year after planting. Harvesting should be done when the fruits are fully ripe, which is indicated by a change in color to a deep red. The fruits should be carefully picked by hand to avoid damaging the plant. The leaves, which are also valuable, can be harvested periodically throughout the year. It is important to ensure that the plant is grown in a wet tropical climate and receives adequate water to thrive.Sol
Thaumatococcus daniellii prefers loamy soil that is rich in organic matter. The soil should be well-draining yet capable of retaining moisture to keep the roots consistently wet. Adding compost or other organic material can help improve soil quality.Engrais
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant every few weeks during the growing season to support its nutrient needs. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can harm the plant.Rempotage
Repot Thaumatococcus daniellii when it outgrows its current container, typically every 1-2 years. 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, place it in the new one, and fill in with fresh soil.Propagation
Thaumatococcus daniellii can be propagated through division. The best time to propagate is during the growing season. Carefully divide the plant at the root ball, ensuring each division has a healthy root system. Plant the divisions in separate pots with fresh soil.Taille
Pruning is necessary to remove dead or damaged leaves and to maintain the plant's shape. Prune as needed throughout the year, using clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears. Regular pruning can help promote healthy growth.Toxicité
Thaumatococcus daniellii is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, as with any plant, it is best to keep it out of reach of small children and pets to prevent accidental ingestion.Supplémentaire
Thaumatococcus daniellii is valued not only for its ornamental qualities but also for its fruit, which contains thaumatin, a natural sweetener. The plant can be grown both indoors and outdoors, making it versatile for different growing conditions.RÉVOLUTIONNEZ LE SOIN DE VOS PLANTES
