Temperature: different varieties have different requirements for maintenance temperature. Except for very few varieties, most of them can be maintained in the environment of about 20 ℃; watering: basin soaking method is used to water them, generally once or twice a month; fertilization: topdressing once or twice a month; lighting: it is not resistant to strong light, it needs to receive about five hours of scattered light every day, and summer needs to Shading.

1. Temperature: it is widely distributed, and the demand for temperature is not high. Generally, it can grow between 10 ℃ and 32 ℃, but when the temperature is maintained at about 20 ℃, the growth state is the best. There are some varieties that can bear the low temperature of zero degree and the high temperature above 37 degree.

2. Watering: water with low mineral concentration shall be used to water it, and the land-based population needs to use high water level basin leaching method to replenish water once a half month in the growing period. During Dormancy and growth period, water should be controlled, just keep the bottom slightly wet.

3. Fertilization: during the growth period, the terrestrial and epiphytic populations need to supplement nutrients through top dressing.

2. Cultivation techniques

1. Reproduction: it can be propagated by sowing. The terrestrial population can directly sprinkle seeds on the clean substrate surface, maintain the high temperature and humidity conservation conditions, and give a certain amount of light. If it is an aquatic population, it can be directly sprinkled on the water surface, under the right temperature, it can germinate in one to two months.

2. Pruning: in the growth process, there will be some rotten branches and leaves, which need to be pruned in time. If it is a normal pruned branch, do not discard it. You can insert the paper into the soil, and soon you can breed new plants.
