Horseshoe lotus should be planted in earthenware basin or purple sand basin with a diameter of < span > 30 < /span > ～ < span > 40 < /span > cm. The soil should be deep, fertile and loose slightly acid sandy loam, which can be formed by mixing rotten leaf soil, vegetable garden soil and fine sand in the proportion of < span > 6 < /span >: < span > 3 < /span >: < span > 1 < /span >.
The growth of Zantedeschia needs a lot of nutrient fertilizer, and thin fertilizer should be applied before flowering, and the compound solution of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium should be applied every < span > 10 < /span > days.
The water chestnut likes humid environment, so it should be watered more, keep the basin soil moist but not ponding, and pay attention not to sprinkle water on the flowers when sprinkling water, which is easy to cause leaf soft rot. After 5 < /span > month, try not to water. After entering the dormancy period, the leaves of Calla will turn yellow, and then put Calla in a cool and ventilated place for maintenance.
When the temperature is lower than < span > 10, < span > 0, < span > 0, < span > 0, < span > 0 ℃, it may cause death. Keep the temperature at < span > 15 < /span > ～ < span > 25 < /span > ℃.
Horseshoe lotus likes sunshine. When it blooms, it should see more light. Especially in winter, when the light is insufficient, the flowering period will be postponed.
After flowering period or dormancy period, dig up the tuber of robust mother plant, divide it into 2-3 clusters according to the size of original tuber, each cluster should take 2-3 buds, plant in another basin, and bloom in 3 months.
In dormancy period, the tubers were dug up, and then some smaller tubers were cut off after splitting. Put it in the basin soil, but at least 1-2 years to achieve the effect you want, time-consuming and laborious, not recommended!
In the bottom of the basin, a layer of broken plastic foam blocks is added, and some nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizers are added to the culture soil.
Select the tubers with buds < span > 4 < /span > ～ < span > 5 < /span > and trim them slightly.
Put < span > 3 < /span > ～ < span > 5 < /span > plants in each pot, put buds upward and cover with a layer of thick soil. Then water it, put it in the shade, grow new leaves and move it to the sun.

In a week or so, your plants will be small and exquisite!
