The pruning of Epiphyllum is very important, especially after flowering, it must be trimmed as soon as possible, at least once. At this time, pruning is mainly to cut off the old branches, residual branches and branches with weak and too dense growth, which can reduce the nutrient consumption during the dormancy period of the plant, and the new shoots will be healthier and stronger in the next spring, and the flowers will be more gorgeous and various.
One or two times topdressing should be done properly after the flowers of pseudoepiphyllum wither, and the thin fertilizer mainly composed of nitrogen is the best. Every 20 days or so to increase phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, soil nutrients, until the end of late autumn, ready for winter.
After its flowering period, pseudoepiphyllum should be watered less gradually. Usually, it is only necessary to keep the soil not too dry. Because the flower of pseudoepiphyllum is in high temperature after withering, and then the flower will start to sleep. At this time, its physiological activity will be reduced, and the absorption capacity of roots will be sharply reduced. If you do not pay attention to reduce watering, it is easy to cause a large number of branches and leaves of the plant to fall off, and it may also appear rotten roots or even directly lead to plant death.
Pseudoepiphyllum has a short period of semi dormancy after anthesis, which is the most suitable period of basin changing. When changing pots, we need to clean up all the roots of Epiphyllum, remove the rotten old and diseased roots, and only keep the healthy and strong roots, so as to maintain the permeability of the roots. The old soil should be completely removed, and the new soil rich in humus should be replanted.
