1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: Pansy prefers cooler temperatures. Generally speaking, a temperature range of fifteen to twenty degrees is relatively good. During breeding, this range can also be maintained. Its ability to withstand high temperatures is not very good. At 30 degrees, it will affect the quality of flowering, so try not to exceed 30 degrees. However, its cold tolerance is quite good.

2. Light: It likes light. Especially during its flowering period, if there is insufficient sunlight, flowering will be hindered. Good sunshine will extend its flowering period and the colors will be more vivid. However, too strong light will not work, just block it a little when you encounter it.

3. Watering: It likes moisture, but Try not to get too waterlogged. During the growth period and when they are blooming, they need to be watered every two days or so, and try not to accumulate water. From late autumn to winter, there is no need to water too much.

4. Fertilization: You can choose fertile soil and mix in a little fertilizer. Usually, you don’t need too much top dressing, but it can be done once every two weeks. During the flowering period, attention should be paid to phosphate fertilizer.

2. Breeding skills

1. Reproduction: The most commonly used method is seeding and reproduction. In the south, it is usually sown in autumn. In the north, sowing is mainly done in spring. Generally speaking, sowing can be done when the temperature is between 15 and 20 degrees. Choose plump, high-quality seeds, which will germinate in about a week. After about forty days, the seedlings will grow and can be transplanted.

2. Change the pot: Once a year or two years is acceptable, as long as you don't change it for a long time. When choosing a substrate, the main considerations are breathability and fertility. Loam, sandy soil, etc. can be used, and the overall effect is good. When removing the pot, be careful not to damage its taproot.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Disease: The common one is "anthrax", and "gray mold" also occasionally occurs. Diseases are more likely to occur when there is high temperature and humidity. Before the disease occurs, it is best to use some fungicides regularly to effectively avoid the disease.

2. Pests: There are "scale insects" and "red spiders", which can be removed manually or sprayed.

IV. Other issues

1. Toxicity: There is no record of its toxicity and it is harmless.

2. Whether it can be grown at home: Generally speaking, it is a very good ornamental plant that is also relatively environmentally friendly and can be placed at home.
