Sydafrikansk kaudexväxt med vattenlagrande stam och långa rankor
Fockea edulis är en knölbildande växt från Kapprovinsen och KwaZulu-Natal i Sydafrika. Den lagrar vatten i sin tjocka, korta stam och förtjockade rötter för att överleva torrsäsongerna i sin naturliga miljö.
Under torrsäsongen (vinter i vår region) fäller den sina blad och överlever sedan bladlös från ungefär december till april i vårt klimat. I naturen är kaudexen vanligtvis underjordisk och kan nå en diameter på upp till 60 centimeter. Under varje regnsäsong, eller hos oss på våren, växer rankor upp till 4 meter långa från kaudexen som växten använder för att klänga sig fast vid allt den kan hitta. I odling kan den förses med en spaljé eller klätterställning som stöd.
Skötsel
Trivs i ljust läge med viss direkt sol. Vattna måttligt under växtsäsongen och håll knölen nästan torr under viloperioden när bladen fällts. Använd väldränerad, sandig jord.
Om den hålls torr ska den till och med överleva lätt frost på cirka -2 grader Celsius, men vi rekommenderar ändå frostfri övervintring eller att hålla den som krukväxt. Ge klätterstöd för rankorna. Idealtemperatur 18-28 grader Celsius under tillväxt.
