Erigeron canadensis, commonly known as Canadian horseweed or mare's tail, is an annual plant in the Asteraceae family. It is native to North America and is often found in temperate climates. The plant is known for its tall, slender stems and small, white to pale purple flowers. It is commonly found in disturbed areas such as roadsides and fields.
Erigeron canadensis is relatively easy to care for. It prefers full sun and can tolerate a range of temperatures, though it thrives in moderate conditions. The plant does not require high humidity and can grow well in average household conditions. Watering should be done sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.
Bodem
This plant prefers well-draining soil, ideally a loam mix. It can tolerate poor soil conditions but thrives best in moderately fertile soil. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.
Kunstmest
Erigeron canadensis does not require regular fertilization. If desired, a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer can be applied sparingly during the growing season.
Verpotten
As an annual plant, Erigeron canadensis does not require repotting. It completes its life cycle within one growing season and will not need to be moved to a new pot.
Voortplanting
Propagation is typically done through seeds. Sow the seeds directly in the soil in early spring after the last frost. The seeds require light to germinate, so do not cover them with soil.
Snoeien
Pruning is not necessary for Erigeron canadensis. However, deadheading spent flowers can encourage more blooms and prevent the plant from self-seeding excessively.
Toxiciteit
Erigeron canadensis is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. It is generally considered safe to handle and grow in gardens.
