How did the leaves of Ruyi Queen turn red?

Conditions for turning red

Don't assume that its leaves are naturally red and green, and ignore the opportunity to make them more colorful. If not properly maintained, the leaves will become dull and the color of the leaves will not be as eye-catching as before. The following basic conditions are required for leaves to turn red:

temperature:

If you want the leaves to look their best and the red color to become more beautiful, the temperature should be kept between 25 and 30 degrees. The temperature must be above 10 degrees in winter, preferably between 15 and 18 degrees. In summer, the daytime temperature should be below 30 degrees, while the nighttime temperature should be below 25 degrees.

Moisture:

In addition to watering, spraying is also necessary. Water the plant every 2 to 3 days in summer. When the temperature reaches 25 degrees, spray the leaves with water from time to time. This will also help the leaves turn red.

Sunlight:

Sunlight is also a major reason for the growth of leaves. Although it likes light, it does not mean that it can be placed in the sun all day. Especially in summer, when the sunlight is too strong, the leaves will be sunburned. Not only will they not turn red, but they will also turn yellow. In severe cases, it will hinder the growth of the plants. However, if there is no sunlight for a long time, the leaves will not turn red. It is best to place it under a lush tree and rely on the scattered light that passes through the gaps between the leaves to bask in the sun. This also increases air circulation, which is perfect.

Special reminder

When watering, be sure to use an appropriate amount and be careful not to cause water accumulation. Otherwise, not only will the leaves not turn red, but it may also harm the plant!
