It is a perennial plant that grows mainly in spring and autumn. It can bloom, but when raised at home, it usually doesn't. Its flowers usually open from September to October. When the flowers are gone, they will bear fruit. The fruit will ripen completely from winter to the next spring, turning purple and black.
It likes to be cold, and the environment higher than 20 ℃ is not suitable for its growth. During maintenance, pay more attention to ventilation and heat dissipation. It is also afraid of cold. If the temperature is lower than 5 ℃, keep warm. In addition, because it doesn't like strong light, it needs to be kept in a darker place and provided with some scattered light. Don't let it receive sunlight directly, lest it grow badly.
