How to grow Foxtail Asparagus, maintenance knowledge

1. Adequate sunlight

Foxtail Asparagus likes an environment with sufficient light, especially during the growing season, when the plant can grow more vigorously with sufficient light. It is recommended to place it on a balcony or south-facing windowsill. In such an environment, the branches and leaves will better absorb and accumulate nutrients and promote growth. Be careful to avoid strong sunlight in summer.

2. Suitable temperature

It likes a relatively warm environment, and the temperature is best maintained between 15 and 25 degrees. Judging from the temperature, the plant will grow more vigorously in spring and autumn. The temperature is too high in summer, so you need to ventilate more and place it in a cool place to cool down and avoid high temperature burning the leaves. The temperature in winter is too low, so you must take measures to keep warm to avoid frost damage.

3. Watering and moisturizing

Its root system is fleshy, drought-resistant but not water-resistant. Therefore, you don’t need to water too frequently, just water when the plant is dry. When watering, you must control the amount and avoid water accumulation. It is recommended to ventilate the plant in time after each watering to allow the water to evaporate.

4. Apply thin fertilizer frequently

It is a fertilizer-loving plant and consumes more nutrients during its growth period, so it needs to be fertilized frequently. It is recommended to apply it once every week, and use decomposed liquid fertilizer. Note that the plants almost stop growing in winter, so stop applying fertilizer to avoid fertilizer damage.
