DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Butcher's Broom prefers moderate temperatures and indirect bright light. It should be watered when the top layer of soil dries out, and it thrives in moderate humidity. The plant is relatively low-maintenance but does require some care to keep it healthy.
Bodem
Ruscus aculeatus prefers well-draining loamy soil. It can tolerate a range of soil types but does best in soil that retains some moisture without becoming waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot.
Kunstmest
A balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10 can be applied during the growing season. Fertilize once a month to provide the necessary nutrients for healthy growth.
Verpotten
Repotting should be done every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its current pot. Choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and ensure it has good drainage. Repot in the spring before the growing season begins.
Voortplanting
Propagation can be done through division of the rhizomes in the spring. Carefully separate the rhizomes and plant them in individual pots with well-draining soil. Keep the soil moist until new growth appears.
Snoeien
Pruning is not strictly necessary but can help maintain the plant's shape and remove any dead or damaged stems. Prune in the spring before new growth starts.
Toxiciteit
Ruscus aculeatus is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The berries and leaves contain compounds that can cause gastrointestinal distress. Keep the plant out of reach of children and pets.
