DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Prunus domestica 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. The tree benefits from a dormancy period during the winter.
Oogst
Prunus domestica, commonly known as the European plum, is typically harvested in late summer to early autumn when the fruits are fully ripe. The plums should be picked when they are firm but yield slightly to gentle pressure and have developed their full color. Harvesting is usually done by hand to avoid bruising the delicate fruit. It is important to handle the plums carefully and place them in shallow containers to prevent damage. For best quality, the fruit should be harvested in the morning when temperatures are cooler, and it should be stored in a cool, dry place if not consumed immediately.
Bodem
The European plum prefers well-draining loamy soil that is rich in organic matter. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot. The soil should be kept moderately moist but not waterlogged.
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 mature trees planted outdoors. However, young trees or those grown in containers should be repotted every 2-3 years to refresh the soil and provide more space for root growth.
Voortplanting
Prunus domestica can be propagated through grafting, budding, or from seed. Grafting and budding are preferred methods for maintaining the characteristics of the parent tree. Propagation is best done in late winter or early spring.
Snoeien
Pruning is essential for maintaining the shape and health of the tree. Prune in late winter or early spring before new growth begins. Remove dead or diseased branches and thin out crowded areas to improve air circulation.
Toxiciteit
Prunus domestica is not toxic to pets or humans. However, the seeds contain amygdalin, which can release cyanide when ingested in large quantities. It is advisable to avoid consuming the seeds.
