1. Temperature: the taro grows well under high temperature, which can be seen from the original area. Generally speaking, it will grow better if it is kept between 25 and 30 degrees. In addition, its cold resistance is very poor, try to be above 15 degrees, it is more safe. Below 13 degrees, it may be frozen.
2. Light: the Yellow bract bamboo taro likes the half shade environment, it is afraid of exposure to the sun. Strong light will lead to its leaves curl, dry and other phenomena, so it needs to be properly covered at the time of light intensity. But it should not be completely dark, because it needs a certain amount of sunshine.
3. Watering: the taro likes to be wet, but is afraid of waterlogging. Therefore, the growth period needs to provide sufficient water, but not water. Then is the air humidity, in the summer, try to spray some water, can make the leaves look more moist.
4. Fertilization: phosphorus and potassium are relatively the most important. Can be used once a half month, liquid fertilizer can be used, the concentration needs to be strictly controlled.
1. Propagation: it can be conducted by means of individual propagation. Generally speaking, it is carried out when the weather is warm, for example, around May, or the wound will be difficult to recover after splitting. When dividing plants, it should be noted that each part should not be too small, and there must be sufficient robust roots and leaves on it. Planting depth must be strictly controlled, not too deep, or it will affect the growth.
2. Change basin: try every other year or two years. It can be carried out together with ramets and replaced in spring. Specifically, the soil used can be peat soil, rotten leaf soil, and a proper amount of coarse sand mixture. Note that alkaline soil is not available
1. Disease: after watering too much, it will lead to "root rot", so it is necessary to remove the basin and trim the root system. Another is "white silk disease", which is caused by too much watering. It is easy to appear in July and August. Fungicides are available.
2. Insect pests: mainly "scale insects" and "spider", the propagation speed is relatively fast, in addition to the normal spray control, but also spray water to inhibit their propagation.
1. Toxicity: it is non-toxic.
2. Can you keep it at home? Yes, it's a good ornamental plant.
