How does the Buddha's palm bloom?

1. Habits of Buddha's Palm

Buddha's palm originally grew in southern Africa, where the climate is relatively pleasant, the winters are not too cold and the summers are very cool. The Buddha's hand palm grown under similar conditions is a little fragile and has relatively high requirements for the surrounding temperature. It can generally only survive the winter safely if the temperature is above ten degrees Celsius.

You also need to pay attention to the soil when cultivating Buddha's palm. It is best to use relatively dry sandy soil to prevent problems with the roots of Buddha's palm due to an overly moist environment.

2. Key points for blooming pots

1. Water and fertilizer

As we mentioned above, Buddha's Palm is a succulent that does not like too much water, so during the cultivation process, it is necessary to ensure good soil drainage. If there is too much water in the pot, the Buddha's Palm will even enter semi-dormancy and its growth will become very slow. This is not conducive to the growth of the Buddha's Palm, let alone overflowing the pot.

In addition, the Buddha's palm grows vigorously in autumn. Do not add too much nitrogen fertilizer at this time, otherwise it will grow bad leaves, and the leaves that have grown before may also rot.

2. Picking leaves

For Buddha's Palm, we can remove the leaves at the lower part and re-root them to promote the growth of the pot. The particularity of succulents determines this. After picking the leaves, there is a high possibility that side buds will grow in the original place, which will also help the pot to bloom.

You can also use the beheading method to make the Buddha's hand palm grow lush side shoots, but the shape of the plant obtained in this way is not as beautiful as that obtained by picking the leaves.

3. Leaf care

Because the Buddha's Palm is more susceptible to being bitten by insects, we should pay more attention to it during the cultivation process. Once such a situation occurs, it will be more likely to cause rot and other conditions. Flower lovers should try to reduce the wounds of the Buddha's Palm.
