1、 Soil

Brazilian wood does not have high requirements for soil. In order to make it grow better, it is best to use loose, acidic soil with humus and good drainage

2、 Watering

During the growth of Brazilian wood, it is necessary to fully water and keep the soil moist. Insufficient watering will lead to its poor growth. Watering must be thorough. In autumn, the amount of water should be controlled. In winter, the amount of water must be reduced or stopped. If the amount of water is large, the root will rot

3、 Illumination

Brazilian wood is very shade resistant. It likes sunshine. If the sun is not enough, it will lead to the yellowing of leaves, and the markings of leaves will easily disappear. In spring and autumn and winter, it is necessary to maintain sufficient sunlight, and in summer, it is necessary to avoid being directly exposed to strong light to avoid burning the leaves. In indoor breeding, it should be placed in a bright and sunny place

4、 Temperature

Brazilian wood needs a growth environment of 20-30 ℃. If the temperature is suitable, it will grow all year round. In winter, the temperature should be controlled above 5 ℃. If the temperature is too low, yellow brown spots will appear on the leaf tips; When the temperature is high in summer, shade it properly and spray water around to reduce the temperature

5、 Precautions

1. Brazilian wood will grow into large plants. When it grows too high, its leaves will fall off, which will seriously affect the beauty. Therefore, it should be trimmed in time, which will increase the ornamental effect and grow new branches

2. It will be attacked by leaf spot and stem rot. after the disease, it should be sprayed with wettable chlorothalonil or wettable methyl tobuzin
