How to keep the golden edges of Daphne koreana (with cultivation tips)

1. Keep the Golden Edge

There is a circle of light yellow edge on the edge of its leaves, and it is green inside, which is the origin of its name. If you want the leaves of the plant to always maintain the color of the edges, you need to ensure good lighting conditions. During the growth process, the light needs to remain mild. If it stays in the dark for a long time without light, the golden edge may disappear and the leaves will no longer be emerald green. If the light is too strong and the plant is exposed to strong light stimulation, the entire leaf will dry and turn yellow, and the golden edge will disappear.

2. Breeding tips

In addition to sunlight, there are a few points to note:

1. Watering: It cannot tolerate moisture, so appropriate additions are needed when watering. When the seeds just start to sprout in spring, water them thoroughly. If you water them again, you need to wait until the soil in the pot is completely dry. Starting from late autumn, reduce the amount of water and keep the soil in the pot semi-dry.

2. Fertilization: It does not like fertilizer very much, and fertilizing it once a month is enough to ensure growth. It also needs to be watered once before and after flowering, but the water should not splash onto the leaves.
