How does calamus survive the winter?

1. Move indoors

Acorus is quite adaptable to cold weather, but it cannot survive the winter in every place. In the north, even if it has good cold resistance, the environment is too cold, so it must be kept indoors. This way the calamus won’t get frostbite. Only then can you safely get through the entire cold winter.

2. Pay attention to trimming dead leaves

The old leaves of calamus will easily begin to turn yellow in winter. If they are not pruned in time, the leaves will easily rot. Don't be anxious at this time and don't pull out the leaves with your hands. Instead, cut off the leaves so as not to damage the roots of the calamus. It will not affect the growth of surrounding leaves.

3. Pay attention to lighting

This is something you need to know: even cool-loving plants cannot be without light for a long time. When the weather is slightly warmer, you can also place the calamus outdoors to absorb sunlight. Even if the weather is not suitable, it should be placed in a brighter place in time.

4. Pay attention to watering

Acorus does not like a dry environment. If you find the soil a little dry, you should water it appropriately. At this time, water cannot remain in the pot, otherwise the roots will not be able to breathe well.

Tips

Relatively speaking, calamus has good cold resistance. Not only does it have a fragrance, but this fragrance can also drive away evil spirits. It is no exaggeration to say that it is a magical herb. It likes a humid environment and the environment cannot be too dry. Keeping a pot of calamus next to it will improve your spirit and energy.
