People who have raised it all know that its shape is really unforgettable, and its leaves are very green, but it is all based on your good breeding. As we all know, the most ornamental part of it is its leaves. If you don't keep it well, it will make its leaves dull and lose its ornamental value. How can we keep it? Let's study together today.

I. breeding methods

1. Temperature

It's really chilly. In winter, it's best to keep the temperature above 8 degrees, so as to make it live safely in winter, or it will suffer from freezing injury. Especially when the temperature is less than zero, its plants will die directly. Generally, the most suitable temperature for its growth is between 18 and 30 degrees, so we must adjust the temperature.

2. Light

It is also very afraid of direct sunlight, often in the shade of growth, even a short period of sunshine is not OK, because it will make its leaves yellow and dry, so it is not the same as other plants, it does not like the light, it is also because of this point it is suitable for indoor cultivation.

3. Moisture

This is a very important point. If it's summer, we should spray some water on its leaves sooner or later, as well as on the ground around its plants. This can not only reduce the temperature, but also improve the humidity.

In spring and autumn, when watering, we should see the drying of the basin soil. If it is not dry, we will not water it. If it is dry, we can properly water it. After entering winter, we will reduce watering, because if the pot soil is too wet at this time, it will let its roots rot.

4. Fertilization

Generally, at the beginning of planting, we need to apply a little basic fertilizer to it, and then in the growth period, that is, spring and autumn, we can add fertilizer to it every first half month or so to meet the nutrition it needs for growth. Then, in the summer and winter, we don't have to continue to apply fertilizer. Otherwise, it will have the opposite effect.

5. Soil

It likes to grow in the loose and fertile soil with good drainage, and it is not resistant to salt and alkali. Generally, when we choose basin soil, the most we use is the basin soil mixed with rotten leaf soil, garden soil and a small amount of river sand. In this way, it can meet its growth needs and make it grow better later.

2. Precautions

Although it's very beautiful, but pay attention to its juice is toxic, so never touch it with your hand, or it will become very itchy
