ON THIS PLANT
A note from PlantMom

Leucanthemum burnatii possède une bonne résistance aux maladies et n'est généralement pas sujette aux infections. Toutefois, elle peut être vulnérable aux ravageurs et aux maladies présents dans son environnement. Ces atteintes sont habituellement peu sévères. En matière d'entretien, cette plante requiert un entretien moyen. Elle doit être taillée régulièrement pour conserver une belle allure et une croissance saine. L'apport d'engrais peut également favoriser la floraison. Leucanthemum burnatii convient à toute personne disposant d'un espace extérieur, comme un jardin ou un patio, et ne demande pas beaucoup d'expérience en matière de soins. Elle peut nécessiter plus d'attention lorsqu'elle est cultivée en intérieur.

CARE GUIDE

How to keep Leucanthemum Burnatii.

Light

Leucanthemum burnatii is a sun-loving perennial herbaceous plant native to open habitats, where it commonly grows in meadows and grasslands. It prefers full sun but can also tolerate partial sun conditions.

Water

To ensure the best care for Leucanthemum burnatii, water the soil only when it is dry. In spring, this typically means watering every 7 to 12 days with 25 ml of water. In summer, increase the frequency to once a week, using 30 ml of water. If your plant is in a pot, water it every three days. Be careful to avoid wetting the leaves when you water, and try to do so either before 9 a.m. or after 8 p.m. to help prevent diseases.

Fertilizer

The best time to fertilize Leucanthemum burnatii is in early spring, as it comes out of dormancy and begins active growth. Fertilization supplies essential nutrients needed for healthy development. Although Leucanthemum burnatii has relatively low fertilizer requirements, applying fertilizer once a year can improve its survival and promote better, longer-lasting flowers.

Pruning

To maintain Leucanthemum burnatii, follow these pruning guidelines: - In spring, lightly prune the plant by pinching back the apical buds when they reach 15 cm (6 inches). This encourages more flowering. - Regularly remove any withered flower stalks to support further blooming. - Once the flowering period ends, trim the stems down to 8-10 cm (3-4 inches). - To control overgrowth and prevent the plant from sagging, shorten the branches as needed. Additionally, remove flowers to stop seed dispersal.
