How to make Aspidistra grow luxuriantly

1. Daily maintenance

1. Soil

It does not have many requirements for soil and can tolerate poor land. It is best to have sandy soil that is loose enough, fertile enough, and slightly acidic. When making potted plants, you can mix rotten leaves, peat and ordinary garden soil as the base soil.

2. Moisture

It needs sufficient water during its growing season, and the soil in the pot needs to be kept moist at all times. You can often water its leaves to increase the humidity, which is conducive to its buds growing into new leaves. After the arrival of autumn, you can moderately reduce the amount of watering.

3. Lighting

It can thrive in places without sunlight, but it needs enough light. You can use a shade to block the sunlight. In the hot weather in summer and autumn, do not expose it to direct sunlight, otherwise small yellow spots will appear on its leaves, which will not disappear. In this case, its growth rate will slow down and it will become less beautiful.

4. Temperature

It likes warm areas and does not like cold. It is best to place it in an environment of 15-25℃. If it is winter, do not keep it below 5℃.

5. Fertilization

Before planting it, you can use rotten leaves as base fertilizer, use 2 kg of rotten leaves per square meter, spread it evenly in the soil, and then loosen the soil. In seasons other than winter, it grows vigorously. Sprinkle it with diluted fertilizer once a week. If it is a severe winter, stop adding fertilizer.

2. Precautions

1. It needs a lot of water during its growth season. The soil in the pot should always be moist, and you can sprinkle water on its leaves.

2. You can place it in a brighter room. Whether it is planted indoors or outdoors, it should not be exposed to direct sunlight. Even with short exposure, it can get sunburned.

3. Keep the plant ventilated during its growth stage. Because it grows slowly in winter, you don't need to ventilate it in winter.
