It is native to western North America and is known for its holly-like leaves and yellow flowers. The plant is a subshrub or shrub and prefers temperate climates. It has a dormancy period during the winter months.
Oregon grape thrives in moderate temperatures and prefers bright, indirect light. It should be watered when the soil partially dries out, and it benefits from moderate humidity levels. The plant can tolerate a range of temperatures but prefers a temperate climate.
Bodem
Berberis aquifolium prefers well-draining loam soil. The soil should be kept moderately moist but not waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.
Kunstmest
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 can be applied during the growing season. Fertilize once a month to support healthy growth.
Verpotten
Repotting should be done every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its container. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage and use a well-draining soil mix.
Voortplanting
Propagation can be done through semi-hardwood cuttings taken in late summer or early autumn. Ensure the cuttings have at least two nodes and plant them in a well-draining soil mix.
Snoeien
Pruning is required to maintain the shape and health of the plant. Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead or damaged branches.
Toxiciteit
Berberis aquifolium is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The berries and leaves contain berberine, which can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and other symptoms if consumed.
