How to grow round-leaf mallow

1. Soil

The soil requirements of round-leaf mallow are not high, and it can be planted in general sandy loam or garden soil. If conditions permit, you can choose slightly acidic nutrient soil for planting.

2. Temperature

It likes a mild environment and does not require a very high living temperature, so it is relatively cold-resistant. The most suitable growth temperature is around 18-25℃. Do not keep it in an environment below 0℃ in winter to avoid frostbite.

3. Watering

It does not like an environment that is too humid, so be careful not to water it too frequently and keep the soil dry. Because the roots will easily rot once water accumulates, you should carefully observe the soil to avoid waterlogging.

4. Lighting

It needs to be given plenty of sunlight, preferably more than 6 hours a day. Giving it a longer period of light every day can ensure its growth and development, and also promote its flowering.

5. Notes

1. Fertilization: It needs to be given certain fertilizers during breeding, and nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers should be used during its growth period to promote growth and development. Apply a little phosphorus fertilizer during the flowering period to promote its flowering.

2. Pruning: Regular pruning is required at various stages of its growth. Cutting off dead branches, diseased branches and unnecessary branches in dense areas will facilitate ventilation under the leaves and reduce the occurrence of diseases and pests.
