Onderhoudsinstructies
Cherry plum trees require bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. They thrive in moderate temperatures and prefer environments with moderate humidity. Regular watering is necessary, but the soil should be allowed to dry out partially between waterings.Oogst
Prunus cerasifera, commonly known as the cherry plum, is typically harvested in late summer to early autumn when the fruits are fully ripe and have developed their characteristic color, which can range from yellow to deep red or purple. To harvest, gently twist the fruit from the stem or use pruning shears to cut the stem, being careful not to damage the tree or the fruit. It is important to harvest the fruits before they become overripe and start to fall off the tree. Ensure that the fruits are handled with care to avoid bruising, and store them in a cool, dry place if not consumed immediately.Bodem
Prunus cerasifera prefers well-draining loamy soil that is rich in organic matter. The soil should be kept moderately moist but not waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.Kunstmest
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 is recommended. Fertilize the tree in early spring and again in mid-summer to support healthy growth and fruit production.Verpotten
Repotting is generally not necessary for outdoor trees. However, if grown in a container, repot the tree every 2-3 years to refresh the soil and provide more space for root growth. Repot in early spring before new growth begins.Voortplanting
Cherry plum trees can be propagated through seeds, cuttings, or grafting. The best time to take cuttings is in late summer. Seeds should be stratified before planting to improve germination rates.Snoeien
Pruning is essential to maintain the shape and health of the tree. Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth starts. Remove dead or diseased branches and thin out crowded areas to improve air circulation.Toxiciteit
Prunus cerasifera is not toxic to pets or humans. However, the seeds and pits contain small amounts of cyanogenic compounds, which can be harmful if ingested in large quantities.Aanvullend
Cherry plum trees are relatively low-maintenance once established. They are resistant to many common pests and diseases but should be monitored for signs of fungal infections, especially in humid climates.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
