1. Suitable temperatureThe star beauty is suitable for growing in a dry and well-lit environment, so the suitable temperature for growth should be between 13-18℃. The temperature in winter should be above 5℃. Otherwise it will have an adverse effect on the growth of the plants. In the cold winter, the light will definitely not be sufficient, so the maintenance temperature should be maintained at around 10℃, and it should be moved indoors for maintenance, which will help its growth. To avoid damage in winter, if there is sufficient sunlight in winter, you can move it to a windowsill or sunny location so that it can receive plenty of sunlight. 2. Suitable humidityThe star beauty is afraid of water and is drought-resistant, so when watering, you must reduce the frequency of watering. And keep the soil in the pot slightly dry, so that the star beauty can grow well and be compact and pleasing to the eye. If you don't pay attention to the soil in the pot being too wet, its stems and leaves will grow too long, and when encountering low temperatures, they will easily freeze or even rot. 3. Soil RequirementsThe star beauty is suitable for growing in fertile and loose sandy soil with good drainage. You can also mix coal slag and peat to make the soil more breathable and more conducive to its growth. 4. How to reproduceThe reproduction of this plant is mainly based on branch propagation, which can be carried out throughout the year, but it is generally chosen to be carried out in spring and autumn. Spread it flat on the surface of breathable and slightly moist soil and place it in a cool and ventilated place. This way, it will take root quickly. After the roots grow, it can be slowly exposed to sunlight. 5. Disease and Pest ControlThe star beauty sometimes suffers from leaf spot and rust. At this time, we can spray 800 times diluted 50% carbendazim for prevention and control. The insect pests generally include aphids and scale insects. At this time, you can use 1500 times diluted 50% cypermethrin emulsifiable concentrate for spraying. |
