DETAILS
Onderhoudsinstructies
Dalbergia melanoxylon requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It thrives in warm temperatures and moderate humidity. Watering should be done sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. This plant prefers a seasonally dry environment and benefits from a dormancy period during the dry season.Bodem
The plant prefers well-draining loam soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot. A mix of loam with some sand can help improve drainage.Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize sparingly, as the plant prefers moderate nutrient concentration. Apply fertilizer during the growing season and reduce feeding during dormancy.Verpotten
Repotting is necessary when the plant outgrows its container. This is typically done every 2-3 years. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage and use a well-draining soil mix. Repot during the growing season for best results.Voortplanting
Propagation can be done through seeds or cuttings. Seeds should be soaked in water for 24 hours before planting. Cuttings should be taken during the growing season and placed in a well-draining soil mix. Keep the soil moist until roots develop.Snoeien
Pruning is required to maintain the shape and health of the plant. Prune during the growing season to remove dead or diseased branches and to shape the plant. Use clean, sharp tools to make clean cuts.Toxiciteit
Dalbergia melanoxylon is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, as with all plants, it is advisable to keep it out of reach of pets and children to prevent any accidental ingestion.Aanvullend
Dalbergia melanoxylon is highly valued for its dense, dark wood, which is used in the manufacture of musical instruments such as clarinets and oboes, as well as fine furniture.
