DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Calanthe sylvatica requires bright, indirect light and thrives in moderate temperatures. It prefers high humidity and should be watered regularly to keep the soil evenly moist. Avoid letting the soil dry out completely. This plant can be grown both indoors and outdoors, provided it is protected from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Bodem
This orchid prefers a well-draining loam soil that retains moisture but does not become waterlogged. A mix of bark, perlite, and peat moss can be used to ensure proper drainage and aeration. The soil should be kept evenly moist, especially during the growing season.
Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 20-20-20. Fertilize every two weeks during the growing season and reduce the frequency during the dormancy period. Ensure that the fertilizer is diluted to half strength to avoid root burn.
Verpotten
Repot Calanthe sylvatica every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its pot. Repotting is best done in the spring before the new growth starts. Use a fresh, well-draining orchid mix and ensure the new pot has adequate drainage holes.
Voortplanting
Propagation is typically done through division. Divide the pseudobulbs during repotting, ensuring each division has at least one healthy pseudobulb and some roots. Plant the divisions in fresh orchid mix and water thoroughly.
Snoeien
Pruning is not generally required for Calanthe sylvatica. However, you can remove any dead or yellowing leaves to maintain the plant's appearance. Always use sterilized tools to prevent the spread of disease.
Toxiciteit
Calanthe sylvatica is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always best to keep plants out of reach of pets and children to prevent any accidental ingestion.
Aanvullend
Ensure good air circulation around the plant to prevent fungal infections. During the dormancy period, reduce watering but do not let the pseudobulbs shrivel. Resume regular watering and fertilizing when new growth appears.
