Инструкции по уходу
Leucaena leucocephala requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It prefers moderate temperatures and can tolerate some drought once established. The plant thrives in environments with moderate humidity and should be watered when the soil dries out almost completely. Regular pruning is necessary to maintain its shape and encourage healthy growth.Земля
Leucaena leucocephala prefers well-draining loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. The soil should be kept relatively dry between waterings to prevent root rot. Good drainage is essential for the plant's health.Удобрения
A balanced fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 5-10-10 is recommended for Leucaena leucocephala. Fertilize the plant during the growing season to support its rapid growth and nitrogen-fixing capabilities.Пересадка
Repot Leucaena leucocephala when it outgrows its current container or when the soil becomes compacted. Choose a larger pot with good drainage and fresh loamy soil. Repotting is best done during the growing season.Распространение
Leucaena leucocephala can be propagated from seeds or cuttings. Seeds should be soaked in warm water for 24 hours before planting to improve germination rates. Cuttings can be taken from healthy, mature plants and rooted in a well-draining soil mix.Обрезка
Regular pruning is essential for Leucaena leucocephala to maintain its shape and encourage healthy growth. Prune the plant during the growing season, removing any dead or damaged branches and shaping the plant as desired.Токсичность
