Care for white belon at home
Location : for normal development, the flower should stand in a place with good light, but without direct sunlight, even a light shadow will do.
Temperature regime : in summer the optimum temperature for the plant is + 22-28 ° C, and in winter - + 10-16 ° C. Even a short stay in the room at + 7 ° C can be detrimental to the flower.
Soil : a ready-made biogrure perfectly fits the white perone, but you can make a substrate for the flower yourself. It is necessary to take 2 pieces of leaf land and sand, and sod land and peat for 1 part. Due to this composition, the soil will have optimum acidity.
Watering : use only water at room temperature. In summer it is necessary to water it so often that the top layer of the soil is slightly moist, but you can not allow waterlogging, excess water should be cleaned immediately. In winter, watering should be reduced.
Top dressing : fertilizer is applied twice a month. To do this, you can use any complex mineral preparations, diluting 2 grams per 1 liter of water.
Transplantation : Belaperone is transplanted in March or April, with young bushes it is necessary to do this every year (up to 3 years), and then - in 1-2 years, if necessary (that is, if the roots have occupied all the space in the pot). To the plant after this procedure did not die, a little humus or bone meal should be added to the soil.
Reproduction : this can be done both by cuttings and by growing seedlings from seeds. The planting material is cut from a one- or two-year-old plant and takes root within two to three weeks. After that, they are first planted in 9-centimeter pots, and after 5-6 months - in 11-centimeter. To improve growth after breeding, it is recommended that the apex of the bush be blended with a white tip.
If you were given a pot of white flowers in the summer, it will please you with flowering before the beginning of winter, then you can stimulate it by pruning the shoots, and it will be covered with flowers again.
