DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Ilex mitis requires bright, indirect light and thrives in warm, humid conditions. It prefers consistently moist soil and should be watered regularly to maintain soil moisture. The plant does well in moderate temperatures and high humidity, making it ideal for tropical environments.
Bodem
Ilex mitis prefers loamy soil that is rich in organic matter and retains moisture well. The soil should be well-draining to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. A mix of loam and organic compost is ideal for this plant.
Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant during the growing season, typically every 4-6 weeks, to support healthy growth and berry production.
Verpotten
Repot Ilex mitis when it outgrows its current container, typically every 2-3 years. 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, loosen the roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.
Voortplanting
Ilex mitis can be propagated through seeds or cuttings. For cuttings, take semi-hardwood cuttings in late summer or early autumn. Dip the cuttings in rooting hormone and plant them in a well-draining soil mix. Keep the cuttings in a warm, humid environment until they root.
Snoeien
Prune Ilex mitis to maintain its shape and remove any dead or diseased branches. Pruning is best done in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Use clean, sharp pruning shears to make clean cuts.
Toxiciteit
Ilex mitis is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, as with all plants, it is best to keep it out of reach of small children and pets to prevent accidental ingestion.
