DETAILS

Onderhoudsinstructies
Meadow Salsify is relatively easy to care for. It prefers full sun and moderate temperatures. Watering should be done sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out almost completely between waterings. The plant does well in average humidity levels and does not require special temperature conditions beyond what is typical for temperate climates.
Bodem
Tragopogon pratensis prefers well-draining loamy soil. It can tolerate a range of soil types but thrives best in moderately fertile soil. Ensure the soil is not waterlogged, as the plant prefers drier conditions.
Kunstmest
This plant does not have high fertilizer requirements. If desired, a light application of a balanced fertilizer can be used during the growing season, but it is generally not necessary.
Verpotten
Meadow Salsify is not typically grown in pots, so repotting is not a common practice. If grown in a container, ensure it has adequate drainage and repot only if the plant becomes root-bound.
Voortplanting
Tragopogon pratensis can be propagated by seeds. Sow the seeds directly in the ground in early spring or late fall. The seeds require light to germinate, so do not cover them with soil. Keep the soil moist until germination occurs.
Snoeien
Pruning is not required for Meadow Salsify. However, deadheading spent flowers can help prevent self-seeding and maintain a tidy appearance.
Toxiciteit
Tragopogon pratensis is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. It is generally considered safe to handle and grow in gardens.
Aanvullend
Meadow Salsify is known for its edible roots, which can be consumed like parsnips. The plant also attracts pollinators such as bees and butterflies, making it a beneficial addition to a garden focused on supporting local wildlife.
