Onderhoudsinstructies
Browallia speciosa requires bright, indirect light and moderate temperatures to thrive. It prefers a humid environment but can tolerate average household humidity levels. Water the plant when the top layer of soil feels dry, ensuring it does not sit in waterlogged soil. Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and encourages more blooms.Bodem
This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil. A mix that retains some moisture but allows excess water to drain away is ideal. Ensure the soil is rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.Kunstmest
Feed Browallia speciosa with a balanced fertilizer, such as a 10-10-10 formula, every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.Verpotten
Repot Browallia speciosa annually or when it outgrows its current container. 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.Voortplanting
Propagate Browallia speciosa through seeds or cuttings. Sow seeds indoors 6-8 weeks before the last frost date or take cuttings in the spring. Ensure the cuttings have at least one node and place them in a moist, well-draining medium until roots develop.Snoeien
Prune Browallia speciosa regularly to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove spent flowers and any leggy or damaged stems. Pruning can be done throughout the growing season as needed.Toxiciteit
Browallia speciosa is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. All parts of the plant contain toxic compounds that can cause gastrointestinal distress, vomiting, and diarrhea. Keep the plant out of reach of children and pets.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
