Does the lucky tree prefer shade or sunlight? Is it okay for the lucky tree not to see sunlight?

1. Do you prefer shade or sunshine?

The lucky tree is a light-loving plant, but it can also be slightly shade-tolerant and can grow normally in both full-sun or semi-shade environments. Normally, you should place it in a sunny place. You can place it on the balcony indoors, but be careful not to expose it to strong light. You need proper shade in the summer, otherwise the leaves will easily lose water and dry up, affecting the growth of the plant.

2. Is it OK not to see the sun?

It is okay for the lucky tree to not see sunlight, as long as the environment is bright. However, due to insufficient light, the plant can easily grow too tall and look loose. And if there is no light for a long time, the leaves will easily turn yellow and fall off.

3. Benefits of Lighting

1. Promote flowering: Although the lucky tree is regarded as a foliage plant, it actually blooms. Its flowers are white or light yellow and usually bloom from May to September. Adequate light is very helpful for the differentiation of flower buds of plants and can promote flowering. If the environment is dark, it will be difficult for it to bloom.

2. Accumulate nutrients: The lucky tree, like all green plants, can carry out photosynthesis. The more abundant the light, the higher the efficiency of photosynthesis, so the plant can accumulate more nutrients. These nutrients are of great help to the plants, both in terms of growth and flowering.

3. Help with wintering: The lucky tree has poor cold resistance and is easily frozen in winter. Placing it in a sunny place to receive light can help it survive the winter better. In addition, this can also raise the temperature slightly to prevent the plants from being frostbitten.
