What kind of plants are cheeky plants? Do you know? It must be difficult for experienced flower lovers, but novices will not know. It turns out that cheeky is the name of a plant. It's an evergreen flower native to South Africa. Although it's a shrub, its shape is very small and it's very suitable to be a domestic potted plant. Let's take a look at how to raise cheekiness today.

How to change pots in spring

As a kind of potted landscape with rapid growth process, the thick skin needs to change the soil every spring. Take the thick skin out of the old flowerpot carefully, use a small amount of original soil to mix most of the new soil, and put it in the flowerpot again.

Cheeky plant

Cheeky leaves need careful pruning by their owners if they want to grow more vigorously. The novice without maintenance experience should not randomly cut the original tree shape, simply cut some branches and leaves that are too dense according to the prototype. There are also some old leaves that lose their freshness and leaves that are sick and yellow need to be reduced. Secondly, we should follow the principle of a small number of times, not one-time large-scale pruning, or it will affect the whole plant.

Water and fertilizer management throughout the year

Although the name of cheeky skin sounds solid, it still requires a high level of water management. Generally, in the hot summer season, you need more water. You can water a little in the morning and evening every day. In the growing period, you only need to keep it about three or two times a week. In addition, when watering, you should pay attention not to pour a lot of water into the soil, otherwise the root will be rotted due to the invasion of blisters, so spraying leaves in a watering pot is the best way to water. Fertilization words summer more winter less, spring and autumn right amount.
