The cultivation methods and precautions of Butterfly Dance

1. Maintenance methods

1. Substrate: The soil selection requirements should be fertile, well-drained and loose. Such soil is more conducive to the growth of Butterfly Dance.

2. Light: It likes sufficient diffuse light. In summer, it is best to place it in sparse sunlight. It does not like a shady environment.

3. Temperature: Butterfly Dance prefers a warm and cool climate and is afraid of the scorching sun in summer. It can bloom normally for people to appreciate when the temperature is above 12 degrees Celsius. In winter, it can temporarily adapt to an environment of 0℃. The temperature in winter cannot be lower than 5℃. It is afraid of cold and frost.

4. Water: In the rainy season of summer, watering should be controlled. The soil should not be too wet or exposed to rain, otherwise it will cause root rot. Controlling watering can protect the flowers and stems of the plants. Watering should be done thoroughly, and water only after the soil is dry.
