Swallow's paw, also known as bean petal paw, holly, Sedum and so on, is native to southern Africa; its branches and stems are full and plump, and it is a plant in green state all the year round, with simple maintenance method and easy planting; its leaf edge will turn red, and the flowers will be very elegant, and the whole plant has a very high ornamental effect.

How to raise in summer

Summer for plants, the two biggest problems are high temperature, high heat

The most suitable temperature for growth in summer:

The temperature is between 15 ℃ and 32 ℃, which is the most suitable for the growth of swallow paw. If the temperature is above 33 ℃, swallow paw will be in a dormant state, and swallow paw is very intolerant of high temperature and sultry.

How to get sunshine in summer:

Swallow palm itself likes the sunshine very much, and its green leaf edge will turn red slowly when there is sunshine, which is very beautiful. But we are afraid of the sunshine in summer, so we can't put it directly in the sunshine. We can put it in the diffused or semi shaded place. In other seasons, we can increase the sunshine. Sufficient sunshine will make its leaves more tender and full.

How to water in summer:

In summer, when the temperature reaches 33 ℃, the swallow palm will be in a dormant state. At this time, water should be reduced. If too much water is poured, the root of the swallow palm will rot, and in serious cases, the whole plant will die. In severe drought, the leaves will also turn yellow and fall.

More ventilation in summer:

In summer, ventilation is very important. If the ventilation is poor, it will have a bad effect on the growth of plants and may cause the leaves to wither and fall.

Prevention and control of diseases and insect pests in summer:

Although there are few diseases and insect pests in swallow's paw, leaf spot and anthrax are easy to occur in the hot and sultry environment. When found, it can be sprayed with special bactericide.
