How to grow Elaeocarpus edulis well

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: Elaeocarpus prefers a warm environment. Specifically, a temperature between 15 and 30 degrees is more suitable. It does not like extreme environments, so whether the temperature is too low or too high, it needs to be adjusted slightly. Especially in winter, it is not cold-resistant, which is why it is mainly distributed in the south.

2. Light: Elaeocarpus has certain requirements for sunlight, but it is afraid of strong light. Therefore, astigmatism is most suitable for it, and don't let it be exposed to strong sunlight. In addition, providing good sunlight in winter can also help it survive the winter safely.

3. Watering: Elaeocarpus prefers a humid environment, and wild Elaeocarpus is basically distributed in humid places. Therefore, replenishing water in time is a very important step, and it is not advisable to keep dry for a long time. However, try not to overwater it.

4. Fertilization: Elaeocarpus does not require much fertilizer. Generally speaking, some natural fertilizers can be used in the early stages of growth, and then some urea can be used in appropriate amounts.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Reproduction: It can be propagated by cuttings. Using this method, the success rate is relatively high, and the breeding process is also quite simple. Choose strong and healthy branches for cuttings. After that, prepare sandy soil, leaf mold, etc. as the substrate. The insertion depth can be controlled at about one-half of the overall length. After that, you can put it in a cool place to let it adapt to the environment.

2. Pruning and weeding: The pruning step is very important. Pinching can promote more flowering, while pruning after the occurrence of diseases and insect pests is an important auxiliary measure. In addition, you need to pay attention to weeding on a regular basis, otherwise these weeds will consume too much nutrients and water.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Diseases: Elaeocarpus does not get sick very often because it has strong resistance. If the environment is not suitable, the plant may get diseases such as "anthracnose". You can spray it in time with chlorothalonil and clean up the debris and fallen leaves.

2. Pests: In fact, there are not too many. Just spray insecticide in time when they appear.

IV. Other issues

1. Toxicity: It is non-toxic and there is no need to worry about breeding it.

2. Can it be kept at home: Yes. In addition to being ornamental, it can also reduce subsequent noise. But it is mainly distributed in the south.
