I -Ailanthus altissima iyisihlahla esikhula ngokushesha kakhulu esinamandla amakhulu okuzivumelanisa nezimo uma sinamanzi ahlala njalo eduze futhi inhlabathi lapho sikhula khona inothile ngokwanele ngezakhamzimba ukuqinisekisa ukuthi siphila.
Ngokufanayo, isitshalo esihle kakhulu, esinikeza umthunzi omnandi endabeni yeminyaka embalwa. Nokho, ukubaluleka kwayo kokuhlobisa kuncipha kakhulu lapho ikhula ngokungalawuleki endaweni okungeyona eyayo.
Uyini umsuka nezimpawu ze- U-Ailanthus altissima?
Lesi isihlahla esikhula amahlamvu esidabuka eShayina, ogama laso lesayensi lingu- Ailanthus altissima , futhi saziwa ngamagama avamile athi tree of heaven, ailanthus, noma false sumac. Sikhula sifinyelele ukuphakama okuphezulu kwamamitha angu-27 , sinesiqu esingaba amasentimitha angu-40 ubukhulu. Igxolo limpunga futhi livame ukuqhekeka njengoba likhula.
Amaqabunga akhiwe ngamapheya ayisishiyagalombili amapheshana noma ama-pinnae, ane-petiole ende. Izimbali zawo zakha amaqembu abizwa ngokuthi ama-inflorescences, futhi aqhakaza entwasahlobo. Isithelo siyi-samara equkethe imbewu eminingi enombala omnyama.
Izinga lokukhula kwayo lishesha kakhulu, lifinyelela kumasentimitha angu-50-70 ngonyaka . Lokhu kusho nokuthi iqhakaza kusenesikhathi, cishe eminyakeni emibili ngemva kokuhluma. Ngakho-ke, njengakwezinye izinhlobo ezikhula ngokushesha, isikhathi sayo sokuphila sifushane, cishe iminyaka engu-40-50.
Ingaphila ezindaweni ezihlukene zesimo sezulu, njengoba ikwazi ukumelana nesithwathwa esifinyelela ku -18ºC kanye nobukhulu obufika ku-40ºC inqobo nje uma inamanzi lapho ifinyelela khona. Okudingayo nje ukuthi izinga lokushisa lehle libe ngaphansi kuka-0º ngesikhathi esithile.
Yikuphi ukusetshenziswa okunikezwayo?

Umuthi wezulu (i-Ailanthus ailanthus) wethulwa eSpain maphakathi nekhulu le-18 ngoba ukhula ngokushesha kakhulu futhi ukutshalwa kabusha kwezintaba kwase kudingeka. Kodwa-ke, izinto azihambanga kahle, njengoba kwasheshe kwaqashelwa ukuthi unamandla amakhulu okuhlasela; okungukuthi, umila kalula kakhulu futhi, ngenxa yalokho, uthatha umhlaba ezitshalweni zomdabu.
Inkinga ayigcini lapho. Ayigcini nje ngokuvimbela izinhlobo zemvelo ukuthi zichume, kodwa futhi inciphisa ukuhlukahluka kwezinto eziphilayo, futhi ngenxa yalokho, iphuce imvelo. Ngenxa yazo zonke lezi zizathu, lolu hlobo lufakiwe ku- Spanish Catalogue of Invasive Alien Species kusukela mhla zi-2 kuNcwaba 2013, futhi ukuba nalo, ukuthutha, ukuhweba, ukushushumbisa, kanye nokungeniswa kwalo endle akuvunyelwe.
