DETAILS
Onderhoudsinstructies
English lavender requires full sun and well-drained soil. It prefers moderate temperatures and low to moderate humidity. Water the plant sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings. Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases.Bodem
Lavandula angustifolia prefers well-drained, sandy or loamy soil with a slightly alkaline pH. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot. A soil mix designed for cacti or succulents can be beneficial.Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-5. Fertilize sparingly, as too much nitrogen can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers. Apply fertilizer in early spring and again in mid-summer.Verpotten
Repot lavender every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its container. Choose a pot with good drainage and use a well-draining soil mix. Repot in early spring before new growth begins.Voortplanting
Lavender can be propagated through cuttings or seeds. Take softwood cuttings in late spring or early summer and root them in a well-draining soil mix. Seeds can be sown in early spring indoors and transplanted outside after the last frost.Snoeien
Prune lavender annually to maintain its shape and encourage new growth. Prune in late summer after flowering, cutting back about one-third of the plant. Avoid cutting into old wood, as it may not regrow.Toxiciteit
Lavandula angustifolia is generally non-toxic to pets and humans. However, ingestion of large quantities may cause mild gastrointestinal upset. The essential oils should be used with caution, as they can be irritating to the skin and mucous membranes.Aanvullend
Lavender is known for its calming fragrance and is often used in aromatherapy and herbal remedies. It can also be used as a natural insect repellent. Regularly check for pests such as aphids and spider mites, and treat them promptly if found.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
