And the light should not be too dark.

1. Flowering

(1) proper pruning: many friends think that the more branches, the more flowers. In fact, this view is unscientific. This is because if there are too many branches, they will consume too much nutrients and affect the growth of flower buds. Moreover, too many branches will appear disorderly and affect the viewing. Especially for those branches without leaves, it's better not to leave them. The best remaining branches are robust ones with many buds. After the flowers bloom, they should also be cut off in time, otherwise they will also consume nutrition.

(2) supplement fertilizer: if you want to bloom more, you should have enough nutrients. The nutrient in the soil may not be enough, so it needs to be supplemented with fertilizer. Especially for phosphate fertilizer, it means a lot for flowering.

(3) soil selection: this aspect refers to the initial soil selection. It's better to keep water, fertilizer, air and loose soil. Can use coconut bran, peat soil, perlite, according to 3:1:1 ratio

(4) good light: if you want to bloom more, you need the help of light. Do not need too strong light, scattered light is enough, the growing environment should not be too dark.
