DETAILS
Onderhoudsinstructies
Foxglove prefers moderate temperatures and should be planted in a location that receives bright, direct sunlight for several hours a day. It thrives in environments with moderate humidity. Regular watering is essential, but the soil should be allowed to dry out partially between waterings.Bodem
Foxglove grows best in well-draining loamy soil that retains some moisture but does not become waterlogged. The soil should be slightly acidic to neutral in pH. Good drainage is crucial 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 to support healthy growth. Fertilize sparingly, as over-fertilization can lead to excessive foliage at the expense of flowers.Verpotten
Foxglove can be repotted if necessary, usually in the spring. 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 with fresh soil.Voortplanting
Foxglove can be propagated by seeds or by dividing clumps. Seeds should be sown in late spring or early summer. For division, carefully separate the clumps in early spring or late fall and replant them immediately.Snoeien
Pruning is necessary to remove spent flower spikes and encourage new growth. Cut back the flower spikes after they have finished blooming. This can also help prevent the plant from self-seeding excessively.Toxiciteit
All parts of the foxglove plant are highly toxic if ingested, containing compounds that can affect the heart. It is toxic to both pets and humans. Symptoms of poisoning include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and heart irregularities.Aanvullend
Foxglove is not only valued for its ornamental beauty but also for its historical use in medicine. However, due to its toxicity, it should be handled with care, and gloves are recommended when working with the plant.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
