Purple bamboo plum is also called purple brocade grass. It is a perennial herb belonging to the genus Purple Commelina, and its leaves are dark purple all year round. Although it is a perennial, it is not cold-resistant. It cannot survive the winter naturally in the cold northern regions and is generally grown in potted plants. In the southern regions, keep the soil in the pot dry and avoid prolonged frost. Even if the leaves above the rhizome wither, it can survive the winter as a perennial root. In the Hunan region, its popularity is comparable to that of spider plants. Many farmhouses grow it as a garden plant. Due to its easy management, it is also often used in landscaping. Purple bamboo plum can be hydroponically cultivated, just pay attention to the following:When pruning the branches of the hydroponic purple bamboo plum, try to keep the stem nodes intact, which is conducive to rapid rooting during the hydroponic process. At the same time, the leaves on the branches entering the water should be cleaned to keep the water clean and avoid root rot. In addition to changing the water frequently, when caring for hydroponic purple bamboo plum, you should also add an appropriate amount of nutrient solution and maintain proper scattered sunlight, otherwise the branches will become increasingly thinner, the leaf color will become lighter and lighter, and it will no longer bloom. If the purple bamboo plum that has been cultivated for a long time has root rot and stem rot, the rotten roots should be pruned and the branches shortened in time to promote new roots and resume growth. If you have carbendazim at home, you can dilute it with water and soak the pruned branches in it for 30 minutes to fully sterilize them before re-hydroponically cultivating them. Although there are various ways to care for Purple Bamboo Plum, it has a stronger ability to grow in clusters and overflow the pot when planted in the ground or in pots. Although hydroponics is fresh and fresh, the aquatic environment lacks stable and balanced nutrients. In addition, hydroponic plants can only be maintained in a diffuse light environment and cannot be exposed to direct sunlight, so it is difficult for Purple Bamboo Plum to grow vigorously. When it shows a tendency to grow thin and leggy, it needs to be replaced in time to avoid giving people a feeling of decline. |
