Temperature: Red-fruited holly likes warmth and has poor cold tolerance. The temperature needs to be kept between 15-28℃ during maintenance. Pay attention to cold protection in winter. Light: It likes light but tolerates shade. You can provide it with scattered sunlight during maintenance, which is more beneficial to its flowering and fruiting. Watering: It likes moisture. Water it in time during maintenance. Water it thoroughly every time, but do not allow water to accumulate in the soil. Fertilization: Apply flower fertilizer every 15-20 days during the growing season.

1. Maintenance methods

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: Red holly likes warmth, and its cold tolerance is not good. Therefore, it can be maintained between fifteen and twenty-eight degrees. If you plant in a very cold place in winter, you need to take certain cold protection measures.

2. Light: Red-fruited holly is a light-loving plant. However, its shade tolerance is also good. During normal maintenance, it is better to provide sufficient light. Especially when growing quickly, blooming and bearing fruit, it should not be too dark. In winter, good light is also beneficial for overwintering.

3. Watering: Red-fruited holly likes moisture. But it is not tolerant of waterlogging. When watering, just water it thoroughly. Keep it moist during the growth stage, but don't let water accumulate. In some areas, there will be a lot of rain in summer, so it is best to take some measures to drain away too much rainwater.

4. Fertilization: Red holly has good adaptability. Generally speaking, it does not need too much top dressing. It is better to fertilize once every half a month or once a month. Another thing to note is the base fertilizer, which needs to be sufficient.

2. Breeding skills

1 , Propagation: Sowing and propagation can be used. The fruits can be collected in autumn, and the seeds can be taken out after removing the peel. Then store it in moist sandy soil. The best sowing time is in March of the following spring. Because its growth is relatively slow, it takes a long time to grow up.

2. Pruning: Red-fruited holly has a very strong germination ability and is relatively resistant to pruning, so this step is more important. The first is topping in spring, which will promote more blooms after branching. In addition, pruning of some aging and dry leaves can be done during the dormant period.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1 , Diseases: The diseases of red holly mainly harm the leaves, especially "leaf spot". It can be treated with carbendazim and the diseased leaves should be cut off in time.

2. Insect pests: The main pest is called "ash scale", which is harmful in itself and can also spread diseases. They are concentrated among the branches and leaves and need to be sprayed and controlled in time.

4. Other questions

1 , Toxicity: It is non-toxic and has strong resistance to many toxic gases.

2. Whether it can be grown at home: Because of its very large size, it is generally not grown at home, but the fruit branches can be placed in bottles for viewing.
