In summer, it is best to place it in a place with scattered light, otherwise the leaves will easily wither. If the plants are in the seedling stage in winter, they must receive sufficient sunlight. 4. Fertilization: Gloxinia likes fertilizer. Apply a thin organic liquid fertilizer once a week before flowering, and add phosphorus fertilizer after flower buds are formed. After fertilizing, you can spray some clean water to keep the leaves clean. 2. Breeding Methods1.

It will germinate in 10-15 days, and the best germination temperature is generally 20-22℃. 2. Propagation by cuttings: Generally, you have to wait until the buds grow to 4 cm, then choose new buds for cuttings. The suitable time for cuttings is between May and June or August and September. 3.
