1. Temperature: Happy tree has high temperature requirements and is suitable for cultivation in a greenhouse between 20°C and 30°C. When the temperature is higher than 30°C, shade should be provided and water should be sprayed to cool down. If the temperature is lower than 10℃, move it indoors, and try not to lower it below 8℃. Although it has a certain degree of cold resistance in the short term, it is still best not to place it in a low-temperature environment.

2. Lighting: The Happy Tree can be illuminated by full sunlight. It can also be placed in a semi-shady environment. However, being out of light for a long time will cause the plant to grow only thicker. It is recommended to place it in a sunny place with no less than 5 hours of light every day.

3. Soil: Generally choose to plant in soft, fertile acidic soil. Therefore, a little river sand can be added to the pot soil preparation, and peat wood can also be used to increase the acidity, but the proportion of peat wood should not be too much, because it will hinder drainage.

4. Watering: Happy tree likes moisture. So water frequently. Generally, water should be watered every two days. It is best to water every day in summer, but water should be properly controlled in spring to prevent the plants from growing too tall. Watering should also be reduced in winter to avoid frost damage to plant roots.

5. Fertilization: The amount of fertilizer for the happy tree should be adjusted according to the season. During the vigorous growth period, liquid fertilizer should be applied once a month. After dilution, spray it on the surface of the pot soil. Be careful not to spray it on the leaves, otherwise it will cause rot. In addition, you can also apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizer once in mid-autumn to help the plants survive the winter safely.
