Description of sour deppé
For the favorable development of this plant, it will be necessary to water the acid deppé in abundant mode throughout the summer period, but it is recommended to maintain the air humidity at an average level. As for the light regime itself, both the content of the plant in the sun and in partial shade conditions are permissible. The life form of acid deppé is a corm plant.
It should be noted that this plant can be found not only in indoor conditions, but also in gardens, balconies and terraces. As for growing a plant in indoor conditions, it is recommended to select the lightest windows. If we talk about the maximum size of this plant in culture, then the height of the acid deppé can reach twenty to twenty-five centimeters.
Description of the features of the care and cultivation of acid deppé
It should be noted that the plant has a need for regular transplantation. It is important to perform such a transplant every year in the spring, while it is recommended to select pots of standard parameters, their diameter can reach twenty centimeters. You should transplant about three to five bulbs to a depth of one to five centimeters: in fact, the value of this depth will directly depend on the size of the bulbs. As for the composition of the soil, it is recommended to mix two parts of leafy soil, as well as one more part of sand and peat soil. The acidity of such a land mixture can be either neutral or slightly acidic.
It is important to note that it is not recommended in any way to prevent a lack of lighting, as well as a drop in temperature below twenty degrees Celsius. Otherwise, the petioles of the leaves of this plant will stretch, and the leaf blades of acid deppé acquire smaller sizes, and the flowering of this plant does not occur at all.
In the case when the temperature regime turns out to be above fifteen degrees, it is recommended to increase the degree of air humidity, however, additional spraying on the leaves of the acid deppa is not required. In winter, the plant will shed either all of its leaves or part of them. Actually, the measure of such leaf fall will be directly dependent on the conditions in which the oxalis depe is kept during the winter.
During the rest period, it is important to maintain a temperature regime of eight to ten degrees Celsius. During this time, the plant should not be watered, and the humidity should be medium. From October to November, the bulbs should be kept in a dry substrate without additional watering.
The reproduction of acid deppé can occur by means of bulbs when transplanting this plant, as well as with the help of seeds. It should be noted that the second breeding method is used much less frequently.
As for the specific conditions of keeping this plant, it should be noted that in the summer period of time, the pot with the plant should be taken out to the balcony or to the garden. When the temperature falls below fifteen degrees Celsius, the plant can tolerate the dry atmosphere quite persistently in indoor conditions.
Not only leaves are endowed with decorative properties, but also deppé flowers. The leaves are on thin petioles, and their length will be about twenty centimeters. The leaves consist of four lobes, and in color they will be light green, and they will also have a reddish-brown center. Depp sour cherry blossoms can be both in spring and summer, and in autumn and winter. The flowering period will depend not only on the type of plant, but also on the conditions of detention.
