DETAILS
Onderhoudsinstructies
Phlox subulata requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and can tolerate a range of humidity levels. Water the plant when the soil is almost completely dry, and ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases.Bodem
Phlox subulata prefers well-draining loamy soil. It can tolerate poor soil conditions but thrives best in moderately fertile soil. Ensure the soil has good drainage to prevent root rot.Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize in early spring before the blooming period and again after flowering to promote healthy growth.Verpotten
Repot Phlox subulata every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current container. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage, and use a well-draining soil mix. Repot in early spring before new growth begins.Voortplanting
Phlox subulata can be propagated through division or stem cuttings. The best time to propagate is in early spring or late summer. For division, dig up the plant and separate the root clumps. For stem cuttings, take 4-6 inch cuttings and root them in a well-draining soil mix.Snoeien
Prune Phlox subulata after the flowering period to maintain its shape and encourage new growth. Remove any dead or diseased stems and trim back the plant to promote a dense, compact form.Toxiciteit
Phlox subulata is non-toxic to pets and humans. It is safe to plant in gardens where children and pets are present.Aanvullend
To enhance the blooming period, deadhead spent flowers regularly. Mulching around the plant can help retain soil moisture and suppress weeds. Ensure good air circulation to prevent powdery mildew and other fungal diseases.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
