I. maintenance method

1. Temperature: the maintenance temperature should be between 20 ℃ and 25 ℃. At this temperature, it has the best growth. It is not resistant to freezing. The overwintering temperature should be above 5 ℃, otherwise the plant will be frostbitten. The plant that North conserves, when entering autumn, want to enter a room to conserve..

2. Watering: the growth period consumes a lot of nutrients. It needs to be watered once every two days. When it is not in the growth period, it needs to be watered twice or three times a month. Water in winter should pay attention to the water temperature, to avoid water temperature too low on the plant damage.

3. Fertilization: before planting, you need to mix the base fertilizer in the soil. In addition, you need to make up for it once a month. You need to use light fertilizer for fertilizer. When applying fertilizer, you can't let the fertilizer directly contact the plant. You need to apply it about 5cm away from the plant to avoid fertilizer damage.

4. Light: it likes to grow in a semi overcast environment, which is more shade resistant, but that doesn't mean it doesn't need sunshine. When giving sunshine, it should avoid strong light, mainly by astigmatism, and four or five hours a day is enough.

2. Cultivation techniques

1. Reproduction: it can be propagated by dividing plants. The time of dividing plants is in April and may. Because the temperature is relatively stable at this time, it is OK to separate the dense plants and put them in a cool environment for maintenance. If we use cuttage to propagate, we can directly cut branches from the plant in spring and insert them into the sand bed, keep the sand bed moist, and we can grow roots in about half a month.

2. Pruning: as soon as the flowering period is over, the branches and leaves that have blossomed will fall off. It is necessary to cut off the branches with poor growth in time, so as to promote the growth of new branches, and the flowers will bloom more vigorously in the next year.

3. Problem diagnosis

1. Insect damage: it is easy to infect aphids, which will eat its young leaves and infect germs. After the aphid is found, the infected branches should be cut off and burned, and then sprayed with insecticides.

2. Pathological changes: the plant is more likely to be infected with leaf spot disease. At the beginning of the disease, round black spots appear on the branches and leaves. At the end of the disease, they will gradually expand until the edge becomes dark brown, and the plant will slowly dry up and die. In case of this disease, the infected branches should be destroyed first, and then treated with carbendazim.
