DETAILS
Onderhoudsinstructies
Allium siculum thrives in temperate climates and prefers bright, direct sunlight. It should be watered moderately, allowing the soil to dry out partially between waterings. The plant enjoys moderate temperatures and average humidity levels. It is best suited for outdoor growth.Bodem
Allium siculum prefers well-draining loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can cause bulb rot. A mix of garden soil with some sand or perlite can improve drainage.Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize the plant in early spring as new growth begins and again in mid-summer. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.Verpotten
Repot Allium siculum bulbs every 2-3 years in the fall after the foliage has died back. Carefully dig up the bulbs, separate any offsets, and replant them in fresh soil. Ensure the bulbs are planted at a depth of about 2-3 times their height.Voortplanting
Propagate Allium siculum by dividing the bulbs in the fall. Gently separate the offsets from the main bulb and plant them in well-draining soil. Water the newly planted bulbs lightly until they establish roots.Snoeien
Pruning is not typically required for Allium siculum. However, you can remove spent flower stalks and dead foliage to keep the plant looking tidy. This also helps direct the plant's energy back into the bulbs for the next growing season.Toxiciteit
Allium siculum is not considered toxic to pets or humans. However, as with many Allium species, it is best to avoid ingestion of large quantities of any part of the plant.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
