2. Sufficient light

Maintenance During this period, the plants should be placed in a place with sunlight. Only with sufficient sunlight can the flower buds differentiate better and the flowers bloom more colorfully. However, attention should be paid to scattered light. Strong light will burn the plants and is detrimental to growth.

3. Suitable temperature

Although it likes a warm environment, it still needs to be cooled down when the temperature is high. In summer, sprinkle more water for ventilation and lower the temperature. It is most suitable to provide a temperature between 18 degrees and 22 degrees, which is beneficial to growth.

Cultivation Fertilizer should be added frequently, especially during the growth period and before flowering. During the growth period, diluted fertilizer should be applied once a month to meet its nutrient needs. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be applied in summer to promote flowering. Be careful to stop fertilizing during the dormant period in winter to avoid root burn.

5. Change pots regularly

It should be repotted every spring and replaced with new soil. The soil should be loose and contain humus. You can mix sandy soil, leaf humus soil and compost. Sufficient nutrients will be more beneficial to later growth. In addition, it is best to combine root pruning at the same time. Cut off rotten and old roots to better absorb nutrients.
