Matrix: choose loose and fertile rotten leaf soil or peat soil with coarse-grained perlite, and put bone powder as the base fertilizer before transplantation. Ventilation: place the potted plants in a well ventilated place. Light: it's good to put it in the place with scattered light. When the temperature is higher than 35 ℃, pay attention to shade. Fertilizer and water: after the basin soil is dry, drench it with water, hibernate in winter, and stop the supply of water and fertilizer; fertilizer is mainly applied by machine fertilizer, and thin fertilizer can be added every other week in peak season.

I. matrix:

Because the roots of this kind of plant are very thin, so we'd better choose some loose soil in the selection of cultivation medium, which is very circulating in both row and irrigation. Generally, the soil with fine particles, such as saprophytic soil or peat soil, plus the pearl rock with coarse particles, are generally stirred evenly to form the culture soil of the plant. Before transplanting into the pot, you can put a little bone meal on the substrate as the base fertilizer, and then cut off some old dead branches, which is conducive to the germination of new roots.

II. Ventilation:

The potted plants should be placed outside the room in a well ventilated place, not in a hot, airy place, or in a closed room, or the leaves of the plants will turn yellow and fall until they die.

III. light:

This kind of flower does not need too strong light, scattering light is good, in addition, when the temperature is higher than 35 degrees, pay attention to shade it.

IV. water and fat:

1. Because its roots are thin and weak, and it is afraid of water logging, and it can't adapt to lack of water, so too dry or too wet soil will cause its poor growth. So we should wait until the basin is dry and then drench with water. If not, don't worry about it. Winter enters dormancy, so we need to stop the supply of water and fertilizer. If the temperature is high, we can drench water once every 3 to 5 days. Once a day when flowers bloom. In addition to replenishment of water in summer, spray foliage and ground. Keep the pot soil moist in autumn.

2. When applying fertilizer, machine fertilizer is mainly used. In the peak growing season, thin fertilizer can be added every other week. When gestating flower bud, spray some special solution to make the flower more colorful. In summer and flowering, fertilization should be stopped. After flowering, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer should be added twice.

V. trimming:

It grows slowly and doesn't need to be cut when it's young, but after a few years, when the branches grow more, we need to cut off the weak and too long diseased branches in early spring, cut off the axillary buds around the flower bud, and let the nutrients concentrate. After each year's flower blooms, we should help it prune the remaining flowers to ensure the retention of nutrients, which is conducive to the next year's flowering.
