5. Things to note

When breeding, use loose, fertile soil with good drainage and a pH value between 5.5 and 7.2. Usually, just place it indoors in a place with bright light. In summer, pay attention to shade to avoid exposure to sunburn. The most suitable temperature can be maintained between 18-30 degrees. More ventilation is needed when the temperature is high in summer, and the temperature should be controlled above 5 degrees in winter to avoid frostbite. During the peak growing season, water frequently and spray water to moisturize. In addition, pay attention to the prevention and control of pests and diseases.

1. Soil

Judging from its growth habits, it likes loose, fertile soil with good drainage, and preferably slightly acidic soil. When preparing, humus soil, river sand, and an appropriate amount of compost can be mixed together. The pH value can best be controlled between 5.5-7.2, which is more conducive to later growth and management.

2. Light

It likes a semi-shady environment and cannot be exposed to strong sunlight. During maintenance, it can be placed indoors in a place with bright light, but it must be shaded or avoided in time in summer. Exposure to the sun can easily burn the plants and cause yellowing, which affects growth and appreciation.

3. Temperature

It likes a warm environment. The most suitable temperature is between 18-30 degrees. When breeding indoors, keeping this temperature will make it grow better and be more robust. If the temperature is high in summer, the plants should be sprayed with water frequently to cool down. In winter, the temperature must be controlled, and the minimum temperature must be above 5 degrees, so as not to suffer severe freezing damage.

4. Watering

Its leaves are relatively wide and require high water requirements. During the peak growing season, water should be sprayed frequently to ensure that the plants are kept moist. But be careful not to overwater, otherwise the roots will easily rot and affect growth.

5. Precautions

If a suitable growing environment cannot be provided during the maintenance period, such as poor ventilation, too moist soil, etc., it will be susceptible to diseases and insect pests. Common pests include scale insects, red spider mites, etc. Diseases include rust, leaf spot, etc. No matter what kind of insect or disease it is, it must be treated as soon as possible after it is discovered to avoid infection and deterioration.
