DETAILS
Onderhoudsinstructies
Chinese holly prefers full sun to partial shade and thrives in temperate climates. It requires moderate watering, allowing the soil to dry out partially between waterings. The plant does well in moderate temperatures and average humidity levels. Regular pruning is recommended to maintain its shape and encourage healthy growth.Bodem
Ilex cornuta prefers well-draining loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. It can tolerate a range of soil types but performs best in fertile, well-drained soil. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging.Kunstmest
Fertilize Chinese holly with a balanced fertilizer, such as 10-10-10, in early spring and again in late summer. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive growth and reduced berry production.Verpotten
Repotting is generally not necessary for outdoor plants, but if grown in containers, repot every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its pot. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage and use a well-draining potting mix.Voortplanting
Chinese holly can be propagated through semi-hardwood cuttings taken in late summer or early autumn. Dip the cuttings in rooting hormone and plant them in a well-draining potting mix. Keep the cuttings in a humid environment until roots develop.Snoeien
Prune Ilex cornuta in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead or damaged branches and shape the plant as desired. Regular pruning helps maintain the plant's shape and encourages dense growth.Toxiciteit
Ilex cornuta is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The berries contain saponins, which can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and other gastrointestinal issues. Keep the plant out of reach of children and pets.Aanvullend
Chinese holly is relatively low-maintenance and can tolerate a range of conditions, making it a popular choice for hedges and ornamental plantings. It is also resistant to many pests and diseases, adding to its appeal as a garden plant.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
