Sizita likes sunshine. Because it is not cold resistant, avoid high temperature and sultry, so it is suitable to grow in a dry and warm environment.
The growth period of xizhita is spring and autumn and early summer, during which sufficient light should be guaranteed.
In summer, when the temperature is high, the growth rate will slow down. Because it avoids high temperature and sultry heat, it is necessary to put the xizhita in a place with cool ventilation and no direct sunlight for maintenance.
In winter, the temperature is low and the sunshine time is short. The tower can endure 5 degrees of low temperature in winter, but it is easy to be frostbitten when the temperature is too low. Therefore, it can be moved indoors and maintained in a sunny place.
The watering principle of xizhita is "dry through watering" of common succulent plants.
During the spring and autumn growth period, keep the basin soil moist, wait until the soil dries, and then water it thoroughly, at least once a week. It's hot in summer, so you don't need to pour too much water. You can do it twice a month. Water sparingly in winter to avoid frostbite.
Xizhita can apply fertilizer every half month during its growth period.
The fertilizer can be the thin liquid fertilizer or the compound fertilizer with low nitrogen, high phosphorus and potassium. But the amount of fertilizer should not be too much, nor too frequent fertilization.
When planting xizhita, sandy soil should be selected. The soil should be loose and have good drainage. Garden soil, coarse sand or vermiculite can be used as medium.
The propagation mode of xizhita includes branch propagation, cutting and sowing propagation.
Keep the light on. Lack of light can affect leaf color and gloss.
The amount of fertilizer should not be too much, nor should it be applied frequently, which will affect the growth of plants.
With the growth of the plant, the nutrients in the basin are reduced, so it is necessary to change the basin.
The maintenance method shall be changed according to the change of seasons.
