Onderhoudsinstructies
Centaurea cineraria thrives in bright, direct sunlight and prefers moderate temperatures. It can tolerate dry conditions and does not require frequent watering. The plant does well in average humidity levels and can be grown both indoors and outdoors.Bodem
Dusty Miller prefers well-draining loamy soil. It can tolerate poor soil conditions but thrives best in soil that is not overly rich in nutrients. Ensure the soil dries out almost completely between waterings 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 sparingly, as the plant does not require heavy feeding.Verpotten
Repotting is generally not necessary for Dusty Miller, but if the plant outgrows its container, it can be repotted in the spring. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage and use a well-draining soil mix.Voortplanting
Centaurea cineraria can be propagated through seeds or cuttings. The best time to propagate is in the spring. For cuttings, take a healthy stem, remove the lower leaves, and plant it in a well-draining soil mix.Snoeien
Pruning is beneficial for maintaining the plant's shape and encouraging bushier growth. Trim back any leggy or overgrown stems, preferably in the spring or early summer.Toxiciteit
Dusty Miller is not toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always advisable to keep plants out of reach of pets and children to avoid any accidental ingestion.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
