DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Orbea variegata requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and low humidity. Water the plant sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. This succulent is relatively easy to care for but requires attention to its specific light and watering needs.
Bodem
Orbea variegata prefers well-draining soil, such as a sandy or cactus mix. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot. Ensure the soil dries out almost completely between waterings to mimic its natural habitat.
Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 2-7-7 during the growing season. Fertilize sparingly, as too much can harm the plant. Once a month during the growing season is usually sufficient.
Verpotten
Repot Orbea variegata every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current pot. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Repot during the growing season, and handle the plant carefully to avoid damaging its roots.
Voortplanting
Propagate Orbea variegata through stem cuttings. Allow the cuttings to dry and callous for a few days before planting them in well-draining soil. Propagation is best done during the growing season.
Snoeien
Pruning is not typically required for Orbea variegata. However, you can remove any dead or damaged stems to maintain the plant's appearance and health.
Toxiciteit
Orbea variegata is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The sap can cause skin irritation, so handle the plant with care and keep it out of reach of children and pets.
