1. Prepare the soil

It likes to grow in loose, well-drained and acidic soil environment. You can prepare suitable soil yourself during cultivation. Mix peat soil, sandy soil, and garden soil, then add an appropriate amount of organic fertilizer to increase nutrients. Alternatively, you can mix garden soil, river sand and leaf mold to meet growth needs.

2. Prepare the flower pot

When cultivating, you also need to prepare suitable flower pots, and choose ones with good transparency. The optional materials include clay pots, purple sand pots or ceramic pots. In addition, the size of the flower pot is also important. The diameter must be more than 15-20 cm and the depth must reach 8-10 cm. If it is too shallow, the roots cannot extend.

3. Planting in pots

After preparing the potting soil, you can plant it in the pot. When planting, first spread a layer of soil in the flowerpot, put the seedling in, and let its roots stretch out. Then fill the soil slowly and compact it after filling to avoid tilting. Water as soon as possible after planting to keep it moist. Also pay attention to the temperature. As long as the environment is suitable, new shoots will grow in about a week.

4. Post-management

In the later stage, it should be moved to a well-lit place and exposed to the sun for 5-6 hours every day. Only with sufficient light can nutrients be accumulated and make the branches and leaves more vigorous. Normally, you should replenish water every two or three days. If you live in a dry environment, you should spray water frequently to keep it moisturized. In addition, fertilizer should be applied once every half a month during the peak growing season, and the fertilizer should be of low concentration to avoid root damage.
