How to care for newly bought purple bamboo plum

1. Temperature

Purple bamboo plum likes a warm environment, and low temperatures will seriously affect its growth. Especially for the newly bought purple bamboo plum, the requirements for the environment are more stringent, and the temperature needs to be controlled between 18-30 degrees, which can help it adapt to the new environment faster.

2. Watering

The first watering of the newly purchased purple bamboo plum should be thorough, but be careful not to water too much, so as to avoid water accumulation and damage to the root system. The next watering should be done after the soil is completely dry. You can also sprinkle water on the plants to maintain the surrounding humidity.

3. Lighting

Adequate light is beneficial to the growth of purple bamboo plum, so the newly purchased purple bamboo plum can receive a certain amount of light every day. But the time should not be too long, and do not expose it to strong light, because it has not yet adapted to the new environment, has poor resistance, and is easily burned. After it adapts to the new environment, you can slowly increase the lighting time and intensity.

4. Fertilization

Don't fertilize the purple bamboo plum when you first buy it. One reason is that it does not have a strong demand for fertilizer. The other reason is that it has not yet adapted to the new environment and has poor absorption capacity. If it cannot absorb all the fertilizer, root burn will easily occur.
