This is a perennial evergreen herb. It also has many aliases, such as dew grass, ice flower with heart leaves, sun rose, etc. It has emerald green, thick leaves, and rose flowers. It is very suitable for potting in the windowsill or balcony, or garden. Watering is an indispensable factor for its development, so how do we do it?

The water demand of this plant

Generally speaking, it does not require much water. But it doesn't mean that we don't need to water it. It still requires water in some periods. Without water, its normal growth and development will be greatly hindered. However, we need to pay attention to the fact that it is afraid of waterlogging, so we must not accumulate water in the basin, or its root will rot, and even cause the death of the whole plant if it is serious.

Watering method in specific period

In a year, generally March to September, that is, spring and summer, is the vigorous growth period of this plant, so the amount and frequency of watering in this period can be greater

After September, that is, autumn and winter, its growth rate will gradually slow down, so we can slowly reduce the amount and frequency of watering until it stops completely. Note that if pouring in this period, do not pour too much at one time

Precautions

In view of the fact that this kind of plant does not require too much water, we have a principle when watering, that is, wait until the soil is completely dry before watering. If it is not completely dry, it can not be watered temporarily, that is, we often say the principle of "see the dry and see the wet". In addition, because it is particularly afraid of waterlogging, so we must not water when watering, containers should also choose good drainage.

For the choice of watering time, we should also pay attention to that it can be done in the morning and at night. It's better not to do it at noon, especially in summer when the temperature is particularly high.

If the temperature is very high, you can sprinkle some water in the surrounding environment.
