This is a plant originated from Brazil, which is relatively common in Europe and the United States. It can be seen everywhere in shopping malls, stations and other public places. Because it was introduced to China late, this kind of plant is not very common, and it is more distributed in the south of China. Today we mainly talk about its fertilization.

The need for fertilizer

First of all, soil. It likes to grow in fertile soil. In other words, it needs a lot of nutrition. So, it needs more fertilizer. If the soil is better, if the soil is not rich in nutrients, then fertilization is of great significance to plants.

Different periods of processing

The first is the vigorous period of plant growth, namely spring, summer and autumn. This period of treatment is almost every half a month or so to apply compound fertilizer or liquid fertilizer, in the form of spraying on the leaves is better

In addition to the above fertilization, if the plant blooms during this period, it is necessary to apply P-based fertilizer once. We all know that this element helps to make the flowers more colorful and beautiful. However, pay attention to stop the application after flowering.

Winter treatment we are generally more clear, because low temperature plants do not grow very much, there is not much demand for nutrition, so it can not be imposed.

Precautions

If we apply fertilizer on the leaves, we must pay attention to the concentration is not too high. Generally, we will control it at about one third of the root fertilization. This is because, if the fertilizer concentration is too high, it will accumulate in the stem of the plant, even endanger its leaves.

Attention should be paid to different nutrients in different periods. We can't use the same fertilizer in every period.

Because we said above that it likes basin soil rich in nutrients, so we can choose rotten leaf soil or peat soil, which are more suitable
