Breeding methods and precautions of winter beauty

Breeding methods and precautions

Farming methods

Reproduction: Generally, there are two ways to propagate Winter Beauty: cuttings and leaf cuttings. Today we will talk about the relatively simple method of leaf cuttings. First, take out its leaves and place them in a cool place for a few days, then transplant them into the flowerpot.

Soil: Winter beauty prefers loose soil with good drainage. It is recommended to use a soil mixture of perlite, peat and cinder in a ratio of 1:1:1. An appropriate amount of river sand and small pumice can be placed on top of the soil.

Water: Winter Beauty prefers dryness, so it is best to water it after the soil surface is dry. Moderate water shortage will not affect its growth.

Pruning: After the winter beauty has grown for a period of time, its trunk will grow excessively, affecting its appearance, and it can be beheaded at this time. The cut leaves can be used for reproduction, and will also promote the growth of side buds, making it more beautiful.

Precautions

The summer is relatively humid and hot, so be sure to do a good job of ventilation and reduce the amount and frequency of watering. When the temperature is below 5 degrees in winter, also reduce watering, and when the temperature is below zero, make sure the soil is dry. During the growing season, fertilize once a month.
