Light: it should be placed in the half shade for maintenance, and should not be directly exposed to the sun. Soil: loam with good permeability and drainage shall be used. Watering: master the principle of not drying, not pouring, and pouring thoroughly to avoid water accumulation. Fertilization: thin liquid fertilizer is applied once every 10-15 days in the growth period. Temperature: give it a growth environment of 15-35 ℃, at least 5 ℃. In addition, the basin should be changed once or twice a year to keep enough humidity.

I. light

Breeding needs to be placed in the half shade, afraid of direct sunlight, Phnom Penh, silver edge, gold heart and other varieties of plants in strong light will appear the phenomenon of flower and leaf degradation, so indoor maintenance should put it in a bright light, no direct sunlight environment.

2. Soil

The root of Chlorophytum is fleshy, so its drought resistance is quite strong. The selected soil needs the loam with good air permeability and drainage.

3. Water

When watering, we should master the principle of not drying, not pouring and pouring, too frequent watering will cause basin soil water, make the leaves appear dry point, scorched edge, even yellow leaves and so on.

IV. fertilization

In the maintenance of Chlorophytum during the fertilizer requirements are not too strong, in the growth period every 10 to 15 days to apply a thin liquid fertilizer can meet its needs.

Temperature

Chlorophytum growth temperature is between 15 and 35 degrees, 5 degrees above can normally overwinter, low temperature will cause plant damage, such as 5 degrees below the leaves may be injured, zero degrees below the root will be injured.

Six, change basin

In the process of maintenance, the basin should be changed once to two years, otherwise the root system will grow too large, resulting in the reduction of the amount of basin soil in the flowerpot, and the nutrients can not meet the needs of its growth. When changing pots, it's more suitable in early spring. Remove the garden soil, and remove some dead and rotten old roots. Put new soil in the shade and wait for it to recover.

Repotting

7. Precautions

We should pay attention to the direct sunlight on the surface, and have enough air humidity. If the humidity is not enough, the phenomenon of dry point will appear. At this time, if we water more, the problem will be further aggravated.
