To raise winter beauties, you need to use loose soil with good drainage, and water in time after the soil becomes dry. After growing for a period of time, the head can be cut off, and the cut leaves can be used for reproduction. In summer, it is necessary to reduce the amount and frequency of watering, open windows for ventilation, ensure the soil is dry below 5°C, and apply fertilizer once a month during the growth period.

Cultivation methods

Propagation: Generally, winter beauty has two propagation methods: cuttings and leaf cuttings. Today we will talk about a relatively simple method of leaf cutting. First take out its leaves and put them in a cool place for a few days, then transplant them into a flower pot.

Soil: Winter Beauty prefers loose soil with good drainage. It is recommended to use a soil mixed with perlite, peat and cinder in a ratio of 1:1:1. An appropriate amount of river sand and small pumice can be placed above the soil.

Moisture: Winter beauties prefer dryness, so when watering It is best to water after the soil surface is dry. Moderate water shortage will not affect its growth.

Pruning: After the winter beauty grows for a period of time, its trunk will grow excessively, affecting its appearance. At this time, it can be beheaded. The clipped leaves can be used for propagation and will also promote the growth of lateral buds, making them more beautiful.

Notes

Summer is hot and humid , be sure to do ventilation work, reduce the amount and frequency of watering, reduce watering when the temperature is below 5 degrees in winter, and ensure that the soil is dry when the temperature is below zero. Fertilize once a month during the growing season.
