El I-Pachypodium lamerei, eyaziwa kangcono njengeMadagascar Palm, ingesinye sezitshalo ze-caudiciform ezilinywa kakhulu emhlabeni; mhlawumbe lowo odlula kakhulu i- I-Adenium obesum. Izizathu azilahlekile: iyakwazi ukumelana namazinga okushisa angaphansi kuka-0º ngaphandle kokuthola monakalo, futhi ibuye imelane nesomiso.
Kodwa-ke, sikuthola kalula ukuthengiswa ezindaweni zokugcina izitolo nasezitolo zensimu, kepha sazi okuncane ngakho. Ukuxazulula le nkinga, ngizokutshela zithini izici zalesi sitshalo esihle esinomsoco.
I-protagonist yethu, ogama lakhe lesayensi ngu I-Pachypodium lamerei, isitshalo somndeni wezitshalo i-Apocynaceae odabuka eMadagascar esachazwa ngu-Emmanuel Drake del Castillo futhi sashicilelwa IBulletin du Muséum d'Histoire Naturelle, ngo-1899. Inesiqu esimnandi esingaba ngu-90cm ububanzi esimbozwe ngameva ahlelwe ngonxantathu angaba amasentimitha amathathu ubude. Ifinyelela ekuphakameni okungafika kumamitha ayi-8, kepha ekulimeni kuyaqabukela kweqa u-2m. Umqhele waso unamagatsha amancane kakhulu, kangangoba ngokujwayelekile awunawo amagatsha angaphezu kuka-3-4 athweswe umqhele ngamahlamvu aluhlaza (cishe wonke noma wonke angawela ebusika uma izinga lokushisa lehla ngaphansi kuka-10ºC), umbala kanye no-10-13cm ubude.
Izimbali, ezilinganisa i-8cm, zivela kuphela kuma-specimens amadala, ehlobo. Zihluma esiqongweni sesiqu ngasinye, futhi zimhlophe ngombala. Uma sezithole impova, isithelo, esime njengobhanana omncane, siqala ukuvuthwa.
Yisitshalo esimelana kakhulu nezilokazane nezifo, kepha kakhulu, izwela kakhulu emanzini amaningi. Ukugwema ukubola, kunconywa kakhulu ukuthi utshale ebhodweni elinama-substrates afana ne-pomx, noma i-akadama, bese uyinisela kancane: kanye ngesonto ehlobo, futhi njalo ezinsukwini eziyi-15 unyaka wonke. Uma kwenzeka ufuna ukuba nayo engadini, kuzobaluleke kakhulu ukuqinisekisa ngaphambi kwesikhathi ukuthi inhlabathi inamapayipi amahle kakhulu.
Konke okunye, kuyisitshalo esingasinika ukwaneliseka okuningi kusukela lapho imelana kahle namazinga okushisa aze afike ku-2ºC (inqobo nje uma isikhashana futhi inhlabathi noma i-substrate yomile kakhulu).
Sawubona, ntambama enhle, nginesundu saseMadagascar kodwa ngenxa yamanzi amaningi ngicabanga ukuthi isikhunta sesivele siwile kuso, ngoba izeluleko zamagatsha sezivele zaphenduka zaba nsundu futhi zinamachashazi amancane afana namaqanda nakumaqabunga nazo zigcwele enamachashazi amaqanda amhlophe. Ngicela ungitshele ukuthi ngingamphulukisa kanjani.
Sawubona u-Esther.
Okokuqala, yiphathe nge-fungicide yesifutho. Lokhu kuzosiza ukulwa nefungus. Bese uyikhipha ebhodweni bese ususa inhlabathi eningi ngangokunokwenzeka. Yishiye endaweni evikelekile elangeni cishe izinsuku ezintathu bese uyitshala futhi ebhodweni nge-substrate entsha ekhipha kahle. Ungasebenzisa i-peat emnyama exutshwe ne-perlite ezingxenyeni ezilinganayo.
Nisela emva kwezinsuku ezimbili noma ezintathu.
Futhi ukulinda.
Sanibonani kanye nenhlanhla.
