How often should I water the evergreen?

In spring and autumn, the evergreen can be watered every 3 days or so, and the watering must be thorough. During the winter, the frequency of watering needs to be reduced, and it can be watered once every 10 days or so.

Generally, watering in spring and autumn is best done before the sun sets in the evening, while in summer you can choose to water in the morning or evening, and try not to water in the hot afternoon.

The correct way to water evergreen

Usually, water the evergreen plant in an appropriate amount, and water it slowly each time. Wait until the water seeps into the soil before watering it, and then water it until water flows out from the bottom of the pot, so that you can ensure that it is watered thoroughly. If the indoor air is dry, spray the branches and leaves of the evergreen plant with water close to room temperature to increase the air humidity.

If the evergreen is cultivated outdoors, it must be watered before winter. This will help its roots absorb nutrients and store water, allowing it to safely overwinter. During the flowering period, be careful not to get exposed to rain and place it in a cool and ventilated place.

Excessive watering of Dieffenbachia

If you water the evergreen too much, water will accumulate in the soil, causing its roots to rot. Since the roots cannot absorb water and nutrients, its leaves will turn yellow and wither.

First, cut off the dead and yellow leaves of the evergreen to prevent it from continuing to consume nutrients and water, thereby reducing the burden on the roots. Then place it in a well-ventilated place with sufficient air circulation and light to accelerate the evaporation of water.
