Today we introduce a very cute succulent. Its name comes from Japan. It blooms after two o'clock at noon every day, and then closes again at night. It is very strange. The yellow flowers are very eye-catching and are the darling of the succulent world. It is also a type of Feng Shui plant, so it is rarely placed at the entrance and exit. At this point, I’m afraid everyone knows, yes, this is Huang Hua Zhaobo. Zhaobo is relatively easy to maintain, but there are some things that need to be paid attention to. Let’s briefly introduce them below.

1. Temperature requirements

Huahua Zhaobo does not have high temperature requirements and can be kept outdoors for cultivation. Even in the cold winter, it can survive at minus five degrees Celsius and grow at around zero degrees Celsius. Although the temperature requirements are not high, in order for the plant to grow healthily, it is recommended not to leave it in an environment that is too cold or too hot. The most suitable temperature for its growth is 15 degrees to 22 degrees. In the winter when the temperature is lower, attention should be paid to keeping warm and cold.

2. Light requirements

Huanghua Zhaobo also does not have very high lighting requirements, but it prefers light. If there is sufficient sunlight, the flowers will be more prosperous and the flower shape will be more beautiful. During the dormant period in summer and winter, pay attention to appropriate shade. The scorching sun is shining brightly in summer. Do not expose yourself to the sun and use shade.

3. Watering requirements

Like other succulent plants, Huanghua Zhaobo does not have a particularly large demand for water. In its native South Africa and the Mediterranean area, it can often survive without rain for several months. When watering, wait until the potting soil is completely dry, and then water enough at one time. In winter, water must be strictly controlled to keep the soil dry.

4. Fertilization requirements

In spring and autumn, the temperature and moisture are relatively suitable. It is the growth period of Huanghua Zhaobo. The plants need more nutrients and can be fertilized once a month. Fertilizer can be rotted leaves or compound fertilizer. During the dormant period in winter, the plants stop growing and do not need much nutrients at this time, so fertilization should be stopped.

5. Propagation methods

The propagation of Huanghua Qiubo is mainly based on the division method. Propagation by division is best done in spring and autumn. Take out the yellow flower Zhaobo from the pot, and then divide the plant into two or three parts by hand according to the direction of the roots. It should not be too small, but try to divide it evenly. After dividing them, remove the rotten rhizomes that are not growing well. You can disinfect the wounds and plant them in different pots. It won't take long for new roots to grow.
