It can take root by cutting. After transplanting, it can use fertile tangmud or black mountain mud.
It grows rapidly and needs to be replaced once a year to provide sufficient space for plant growth. The basin change shall be carried out from March to April every year. When changing basin, remove part of the old soil and dry roots, and change into a large basin. Put some hooves and broken bones at the bottom of the pot as the base fertilizer, and fill in 1 /3 mixed culture soil of saprophytic soil, vegetable soil and sandy soil.
Bamboo on the back should not be exposed to the sun. In summer, the plants should be placed indoors or under the shade, not on the balcony where the sun is too strong, otherwise, it is easy to cause dead leaves and affect the ornamental value.
In winter, when the temperature drops to 6 ℃, it should be moved into the room to keep warm. The indoor temperature should be controlled between 15 ~ 20 ℃, and the plants can live through the winter safely.
It likes humid environment. It needs enough water and certain air humidity during its growth.
Daily watering can be done once a day, once in the morning and once in the evening in summer. When the weather is dry, it is necessary to spray water on the leaf surface and the surrounding environment to ensure fresh and moist air and bright leaves. In winter, water once in 3-4 days and once in 7-10 days, mainly to clean the leaves, keep the plants evergreen and fresh, and improve the ornamental value.
The Swiss cheese plant is a kind of fertilizer loving flower. It is fertilized once every 15 days from April to September. The diluted cake fertilizer water or the retting animal and plant excrement are used. Only when the nutrients are sufficient, the leaves will be green.
(1) be warm and avoid cold. It is native to the tropical rainforest of Mexico. It likes warm environment and avoids freezing and freezing weather. The temperature above 5 ℃ will not be damaged by freezing, and the growth is good above 12 ℃.
(2) prefer shade and avoid strong light. In the semi shade environment, it grows rapidly, grows vigorously, has developed air rooting, has large leaves and bright dark green leaves.
(3) prefer to wet and avoid waterlogging. It likes to grow in humid environment. There is much rain in the south. If the waterlogging time is too long, rotten roots, stems and leaves will occur.
(4) the fertile soil should not be thin. It likes fertile soil, especially fertile sandy loam. Although it can grow on thin red and yellow soil, its growth trend becomes weak, its tree posture is deformed, its leaves become smaller and its color becomes lighter, which affects the viewing effect.
(5) prefer soil, fertilizer and chemical fertilizer. Organic fertilizer, such as cake fertilizer, artificial organic fertilizer, livestock and poultry manure residue, and soil fertilizer, is often applied to the Swiss cheese plant. The tree has strong momentum, large leaves, thick leaves, dark green and luminous leaves, especially the turtle shell pattern is more clear.
(6) trim in time. For newly planted plants, support shall be set up in time to make them grow according to the specified shape, and pruning shall be carried out in time to ensure the beautiful plant type.
(7) prevention and control of diseases and insect pests. We should closely monitor and actively prevent diseases and insect pests. Once they happen, they should be eliminated in time.
