Its origin is in South Africa, like dry environment, do not like water. Therefore, during the maintenance of watering do not need to be too frequent, see dry irrigation on the line. The frequency depends on the season. In spring and summer, the growth rate is fast and the temperature is high, generally watering once every four days. When the temperature drops in autumn, once a week is enough. In winter, water evaporates more slowly, so it is better not to water if it is not dry. In addition, the soil should be well drained, loose and slightly acidic when it is maintained.

3. Temperature

It has a certain degree of cold resistance. It can grow normally for a short time when the temperature is 0 . In normal times, the temperature suitable for its normal growth is 25-30 . If the temperature is well controlled during the growth period, the plant will grow faster.

4. Illumination

It likes to grow in a semi-shade, mild environment, does not like strong direct light, suitable for long-term astigmatism.Especially in summer, when the temperature is relatively high and the light is relatively strong, it should be properly shaded and illuminated.
