The Phoenix is also called the Fallen Root Plant. It is a succulent plant that is relatively easy to grow. Its leaves are like feathers, so people call it the Phoenix. Let’s learn about the breeding methods and precautions of the phoenix. 1. Soil The phoenix only needs to have air permeability in its soil. Generally, the soil for the phoenix can be made by mixing coal slag with a small amount of peat. In addition, granular river sand can be laid on the surface of the soil, focusing on water permeability and air permeability. 2. Lighting When growing potted Phoenix, it must have as much sunlight as possible. Do not keep it in an overly shaded place. It must have at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight every day. Except for a little shade when it is too hot in the summer, it is best to plant it outdoors in other seasons. The plant will grow more compactly with sufficient light. 3. Watering Phoenix succulents are drought-tolerant plants and are sensitive to overwatering. Before watering, make sure the soil surface is dry. Then water evenly with an appropriate amount of water, but do not let water accumulate at the bottom of the container. In winter, you have to wait until the soil is completely dry, or even wait for the soil to be dry for several days, before adding water to it. 4. Fertilization Phoenix succulents have low fertilizer requirements. During the growing season, you can apply special fertilizer for succulents every 2-3 months, but the amount should be moderate to avoid over-fertilization. When it is too hot in the summer, such as when the temperature is above 33 degrees, or when the temperature is below 15 degrees in the winter, you should stop fertilizing. 5. Pruning Prune your Phoenix plant regularly to remove old or diseased leaves and encourage new growth. Keeping your plants clean and tidy will help reduce the incidence of pests and diseases. 6. Notes In seasons with heavy rain, potted phoenixes can be properly sheltered from the rain. When the weather is bad, water them less and regularly sprinkle some fungicides and insecticides on the soil to prevent the breeding of pests such as aphids and scale insects. That’s it |
