Lingxiao flower is slightly drought-tolerant and needs frequent watering during the growth period and less water during the dormant period in winter. Add sufficient base fertilizer when potting, and apply secondary fertilizer every 10 to 15 days during normal growth. Growth is vigorous in spring and requires regular pruning to promote the germination of new branches.

1. Light

Lingxiao flower cannot grow without the support of sunlight. It is more conducive to growth in a sunny environment. If it is a potted plant at home, it can be placed on the balcony. Maintenance, such sufficient light can facilitate growth, and the entire plant can accumulate nutrients to maintain the needs for growth and flowering. It can accept direct light and cannot be grown on the north balcony. If it grows in semi-shade astigmatism, the growth of the plant will be weak and poor growth will occur easily.

2. Moisture

Lingxiao flower is slightly drought-tolerant, but it is more conducive to growth in a humid growing environment. It needs frequent watering during the growth period. Keep the pot soil slightly moist. After winter, it enters the dormant stage. At this time, the water demand is reduced and the pot soil is kept dry.

3. Fertilization

Fertilizer is needed for daily growth and flowering. When potting, a sufficient amount of base fertilizer needs to be added to the soil to maintain the needs of later growth. Fertilizer is applied regularly every 10 to 15 days during normal growth, and fertilizers are added starting from June. Foliar fertilizer needs to be sprayed on the leaves. After winter, the plant will enter a dormant period, so do not fertilize at this time.

4. Pruning

Strong growth in spring requires regular pruning to remove thin, leggy, dead and diseased branches to promote the germination of new branches.
