DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Malus floribunda requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It thrives in moderate temperatures and prefers a humid environment. Regular watering is necessary, but the soil should be allowed to dry out partially between waterings. Pruning is essential to maintain its shape and health.
Oogst
Malus floribunda, commonly known as the Japanese flowering crabapple, is typically harvested in late summer to early autumn when the fruits are fully mature and have developed their characteristic color. To harvest, gently twist the fruit to detach it from the tree, ensuring not to damage the branches or remaining fruits. It is important to handle the fruits carefully to avoid bruising. The tree prefers temperate climates and should be monitored for pests and diseases throughout the growing season to ensure a healthy harvest.
Bodem
The Japanese Crabapple prefers well-draining loamy soil that is rich in nutrients. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can harm the roots. A slightly acidic to neutral pH is ideal for this tree.
Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize in early spring before new growth begins and again in mid-summer. Avoid over-fertilizing as it can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers and fruits.
Verpotten
Repotting is generally not necessary for outdoor trees, but if grown in a container, repot every 2-3 years. Choose a larger pot with good drainage and fresh loamy soil. Repot in early spring before new growth starts.
Voortplanting
Propagate Malus floribunda through seeds or grafting. Seeds should be stratified before planting. Grafting is typically done in late winter or early spring. Ensure the grafting tools are sterilized to prevent disease.
Snoeien
Prune the tree in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead, diseased, or crossing branches to improve air circulation and light penetration. Regular pruning helps maintain the tree's shape and encourages healthy growth.
Toxiciteit
Malus floribunda is not toxic to pets or humans. However, the seeds contain small amounts of cyanogenic compounds, which can be harmful if ingested in large quantities. It is generally safe to handle and grow around pets and children.
Aanvullend
To enhance flowering and fruiting, ensure the tree receives adequate sunlight and is not overcrowded by other plants. Mulching around the base can help retain soil moisture and regulate temperature. Regularly check for pests and diseases, and treat promptly to maintain the tree's health.
