DETAILS
Onderhoudsinstructies
Acokanthera oppositifolia requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It thrives in moderate temperatures and prefers a seasonally dry environment. Regular watering is necessary, but the soil should be allowed to dry out almost completely between waterings. Moderate humidity levels are ideal for this plant.Bodem
This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil. It is important to ensure that the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can be detrimental to the plant's health. A mix of loam with some sand can be beneficial.Kunstmest
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 is suitable for Acokanthera oppositifolia. Fertilize the plant during the growing season, typically every 4-6 weeks, to support its growth and development.Verpotten
Repotting should be done every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its current container. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Carefully remove the plant from its old pot, trim any dead roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.Voortplanting
Propagation can be done through seeds or cuttings. For cuttings, take a healthy stem cutting and plant it in a well-draining soil mix. Keep the soil moist and place the cutting in a warm, bright location until it establishes roots.Snoeien
Pruning is necessary to maintain the shape and health of the plant. Prune during the dormant period, removing any dead or diseased branches. This will encourage new growth and help the plant maintain a desirable shape.Toxiciteit
Acokanthera oppositifolia is highly toxic, particularly its sap, which contains potent cardiac glycosides. All parts of the plant are toxic if ingested, and it can be harmful to both pets and humans. Handle with care and keep out of reach of children and animals.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
