DETAILS
Onderhoudsinstructies
Vicia tenuifolia requires moderate care. It prefers medium light conditions and should be placed where it can receive around 6 hours of light daily. The plant thrives in moderate temperatures and humidity levels. Regular watering is necessary, but the soil should be allowed to dry out partially between waterings. Pruning is recommended to maintain its shape and encourage healthy growth.Bodem
Vicia tenuifolia prefers well-draining loam soil. The soil should be kept moderately moist but not waterlogged. Good drainage is essential to prevent root rot. A slightly acidic to neutral pH is ideal for this plant.Kunstmest
A balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10 is suitable for Vicia tenuifolia. Fertilize the plant during the growing season, typically in spring and summer, to support its growth and flowering. Avoid over-fertilizing, as this can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.Verpotten
Repot Vicia tenuifolia every 2-3 years or when it outgrows its current container. 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, loosen the roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil. Water thoroughly after repotting.Voortplanting
Vicia tenuifolia can be propagated through seeds or cuttings. For seed propagation, sow the seeds in a well-draining soil mix in early spring. Keep the soil moist until germination. For cuttings, take healthy stem cuttings in late spring or early summer, dip them in rooting hormone, and plant them in a moist, well-draining soil mix.Snoeien
Pruning is beneficial for Vicia tenuifolia to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Prune the plant in early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead or damaged stems and trim back any overgrown areas. Regular pruning will help keep the plant healthy and promote more vigorous flowering.Toxiciteit
Vicia tenuifolia is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, as with all plants, it is advisable to keep it out of reach of pets and children to prevent any accidental ingestion.Aanvullend
Vicia tenuifolia is a nitrogen-fixing plant, which means it can improve soil fertility by converting atmospheric nitrogen into a form that plants can use. This makes it a beneficial addition to gardens and agricultural systems. Additionally, its flowers attract pollinators, making it a valuable plant for supporting local ecosystems.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
