How to make the Jade Butterfly wrap its leaves and how to raise it

1. Adequate sunlight

It prefers sunlight and can bask in the sun all day. During the breeding period, it should be placed in a well-lit place to receive more light. Especially during the peak growing season, more sunlight will help the plant grow better and more vigorously, and its appearance will be more beautiful. If there is a lack of light, the plant will tend to grow too tall, which will reduce its appearance. The leaves will also appear loose.

2. Watering in moderation

Succulent plants have a certain degree of drought resistance, so they do not need to be watered too frequently. It is best to water them when the soil is dry, and water them thoroughly when they are completely dry. Strictly control water during the dormant period and it is best to keep the soil slightly dry. The soil must not be waterlogged at any time, otherwise the roots will easily rot. Also be careful not to let the leaves get wet.

3. Suitable temperature

The temperature requirements of the jade butterfly are relatively wide. It has a certain degree of cold resistance and can tolerate high temperature environments. However, it is best to maintain the temperature between 15-25 degrees. This temperature is more suitable for it and is conducive to its growth. It will be better to maintain the overall condition in the long term, and the leaves may wrap up.

4. Suitable soil

It is actually not picky about the soil and can maintain normal growth when cultivated with garden soil. However, if you want the plant to grow vigorously and look beautiful, it is recommended to use loose, breathable soil. You can mix it yourself with perlite, coarse sand and peat soil. It is best to add more granular soil to improve air permeability so that the plant can breathe better and absorb water and nutrients better, which is beneficial to growth.
