The night temperature during the growing season must not be lower than 12℃, the minimum temperature in winter must not be lower than 5℃, and the maximum temperature in summer must not be higher than 30℃.

4. Watering

It likes a warm growing environment, but too much water will damage its roots and cause disease. Too little water will reduce the growth rate of the plant and cause irregular flowering, etc. Therefore, watering should be appropriate. You can water it a lot at one time.

5. Fertilization

It prefers fertilizer. It is recommended to apply thin fertilizer every 5-7 days. Flower fertilizer is mainly phosphorus fertilizer. Apply thin fertilizer before flowering. No fertilizer is needed during flowering. Apply thick fertilizer after flowering.
