DETAILS
Onderhoudsinstructies
Streptocarpus albus requires moderate temperatures and high humidity to thrive. It should be watered regularly to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. The plant prefers indirect bright light and should be protected from direct sunlight to prevent leaf burn. Regular pruning helps maintain its shape and encourages new growth.Bodem
Streptocarpus albus prefers a well-draining loam soil that retains moisture without becoming waterlogged. A mix of peat, perlite, and vermiculite can provide the ideal growing medium. Ensure the soil is rich in organic matter to support healthy growth.Kunstmest
Fertilize Streptocarpus albus with a balanced 10-10-10 fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to nutrient burn.Verpotten
Repot Streptocarpus albus every 1-2 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. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, shake off excess soil, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil mix.Voortplanting
Streptocarpus albus can be propagated through leaf cuttings or division. For leaf cuttings, cut a healthy leaf and place it in a moist soil mix. Keep the cutting in a warm, humid environment until new growth appears. For division, carefully separate the plant into smaller sections and replant them in individual pots.Snoeien
Prune Streptocarpus albus regularly to remove dead or yellowing leaves and spent flowers. This helps maintain the plant's appearance and encourages new growth. Use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to make clean cuts.Toxiciteit
Streptocarpus albus is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always a good practice to keep plants out of reach of pets and children to prevent any accidental ingestion.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
