Aspidistra is a perennial evergreen epiphytic bulbous flower with beautiful, upright and neat leaves, dark green and shiny color. It grows vigorously and has strong adaptability to the environment, making it very suitable for indoor potted viewing. So how do you grow Aspidistra so that it will bloom rapidly? Let’s learn more about it below. All"> 1. Soil selection Aspidistra is not very demanding on the soil, but if you want it to bloom out of the pot, you can choose loose, fertile, slightly acidic soil. When planting potted plants at home, you can choose to mix leaf mold, peat soil, and garden soil. 2. Light and temperature management Aspidistra likes warmth and is not cold-resistant. The suitable temperature for its growth is between 15-25℃. Semi-shade is the best lighting option. You can place it in a bright or scattered light place indoors, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent burning the leaves. 3. Watering tips Aspidistra has a high demand for water, especially during the spring growing season, and needs to be watered about once every 1 to 3 days. When the temperature is high in summer, the soil is dry and needs to be watered once in the morning and evening every day, and water should be sprayed on the leaves to increase the humidity. In autumn, water the plants every 3 to 5 days. In winter, when the temperature is lower, water the plants about every 8 days to maintain soil moisture. 4. Reasonable fertilization If you want the Aspidistra to grow well, you need to supplement it with sufficient nutrients. You can apply some nitrogen and potassium fertilizers every half a month during its peak growth period, and then apply some phosphorus fertilizers as an aid. However, when applying fertilizer, be careful not to use too high a concentration, otherwise it will easily cause burns. 5. Pruning and repotting After the Aspidistra blooms, the pedicels will gradually wither. The withered pedicels should be cut off in time so that the plant can use more energy to grow new flower buds. In addition, since Aspidistra grows quickly, it is recommended to change the pot every 1-2 years. After repotting, water thoroughly and place in a cool area. 6. Pest control For indoor potted plants, red spider mite disease often occurs, causing yellow leaves. The treatment method is: you should pay attention to the condition of the leaves on a daily basis. If you encounter red spider mite damage, you can solve it by spraying nicotinic acid, trichloronate and other measures. In general, Aspidistra is hardy, easy to grow and beautiful. The above-mentioned maintenance methods can effectively promote the growth of Aspidistra and make it bloom out of the pot.
