Onderhoudsinstructies
Duranta erecta requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and can tolerate some drought once established. Regular watering is necessary during the growing season, but the soil should be allowed to dry out between waterings. It thrives in moderate humidity levels.Bodem
This plant prefers well-draining loamy soil. It can tolerate a range of soil types but performs best in soil that is rich in organic matter. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.Kunstmest
Duranta erecta benefits from a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant every 4-6 weeks during the growing season to promote healthy growth and flowering.Verpotten
Repotting is necessary when the plant outgrows its container. The best time to repot is in the spring. Choose a pot that is one size larger than the current one and ensure it has good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, loosen the roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.Voortplanting
Duranta erecta can be propagated through seeds or cuttings. The best time to take cuttings is in the spring or early summer. Use a sharp, clean tool to take a 4-6 inch cutting from a healthy plant. Remove the lower leaves and plant the cutting in a pot with moist soil. Keep the soil moist and place the pot in a warm, bright location.Snoeien
Pruning is essential to maintain the shape and size of Duranta erecta. Prune the plant in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead or damaged branches and trim back overgrown areas to encourage bushier growth.Toxiciteit
