Onderhoudsinstructies
Hummingbird Sage requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and can tolerate some drought once established. Maintain moderate humidity levels and ensure the plant is not exposed to extreme cold. Regular watering is essential, but allow the soil to dry out between waterings.Bodem
Salvia spathacea prefers well-draining loamy soil. It can tolerate a range of soil types but thrives best in soil that is not too rich in nutrients. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.Kunstmest
Use a balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10. Fertilize sparingly, as over-fertilization can harm the plant. Apply fertilizer during the growing season to support healthy growth and flowering.Verpotten
Repot Hummingbird Sage every 2-3 years or when the plant outgrows its container. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Gently remove the plant from its current pot, loosen the roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.Voortplanting
Propagate Salvia spathacea through stem cuttings or division. Take cuttings in the spring or early summer and root them in a well-draining soil mix. Division can be done during the plant's dormancy period by separating the root clumps and replanting them.Snoeien
Prune Hummingbird Sage after the flowering season to maintain its shape and encourage new growth. Remove any dead or damaged stems and trim back leggy growth. Pruning helps to keep the plant healthy and vigorous.Toxiciteit
Salvia spathacea is not toxic to pets or humans. It is safe to grow in gardens where pets and children are present.Aanvullend
Hummingbird Sage is a great addition to gardens for attracting pollinators like hummingbirds and bees. It is also deer-resistant and can be used in xeriscaping due to its drought tolerance once established.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
