How to cultivate snake eye chrysanthemum

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: Snake eye daisy will grow better in a warm place. Therefore, the temperature should be between 20 and 28 degrees. Special attention should be paid to the fact that, according to its habits, it is neither heat-resistant nor frost-resistant, so special care should be taken to regulate it in areas with extreme climates.

2. Light: Snake eye daisy prefers a location with full sunlight. It can tolerate partial shade slightly, but is not very good at tolerating shade. Therefore, no matter what season it is, it should not be placed in a place that is too dark. However, in the summer, you can provide some shade, but don't completely block out all light.

3. Watering: Snake eye chrysanthemum likes moisture, but don't let it be rained on. Too much water will harm its health. In addition, attention should also be paid to the air humidity, which should be between 65 and 75 percent. However, the leaves need to be kept moist at night and sprayed with water appropriately during the day.

4. Fertilization: Snake eye chrysanthemum requires more fertilizer, which can be applied once a week, but the concentration must not be too high.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Reproduction: It can be propagated by seeds. It is suitable to do it in spring and autumn. If sown in March or April, it will bloom in May or June. Before sowing, soak it overnight. The substrate for sowing can be sandy loam, etc. After sowing, place it in a semi-shaded place and ensure ventilation conditions. When it grows to about ten centimeters, it can be transplanted.

2. Pruning: The first important step is to pinch the tips of the plants. Generally speaking, it is best to pinch the flowers twice before flowering. One time is two weeks after potting, keeping the lower leaves. Three to five weeks after this pinching, you can do the second pinching. In addition, dry leaves also need to be trimmed off.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Diseases: Snake eye chrysanthemum does not have many diseases at ordinary times, but in summer and autumn, it is prone to "anthracnose". It has a wide range of harm and can easily infect a large area. Agents such as thiophanate-methyl can be used.

2. Pests: There may be pests such as "aphids", which are not particularly common, so using pesticides will be more effective.

IV. Other issues

1. Flower language: The flower language of snake-eye daisy is quite unique, and its meaning is very good, which is "sincere joy".

2. Can it be kept at home?: It can be used for viewing and kept at home.
