How to spend the winter

Watering

Jiulixiang can still adapt to the dry environment, and it is not suitable to over water at ordinary times. In winter, the evaporation is relatively small, and it is not suitable to pour too much water. Just make sure the soil is not too dry and cracked. Generally speaking, after the end of autumn, the development of plants will slow down and even stop completely, so the demand for water is also slowly decreasing. Therefore, do not accumulate water in the basin, causing plant root rot. When the blade is stained with dust, it can be washed with water to maintain its fresh brightness

Illumination

Needless to say, as long as you think about the abundant sunshine in its origin, you can understand that it needs more sunshine. The temperature is low in winter, and the light can ensure that it receives more heat, so it is indispensable. Always put it in a sunny place. But don't put it in the sun. It doesn't like direct sunlight

Soil

Jiulixiang has no special requirements for soil. Generally speaking, loose soil with more nutrients suitable for the growth of other plants is very suitable for it. As for fertilizer, there is no demand for it in winter. If you want to apply it, you can use a small amount of organic fertilizer

Pruning

At the end of autumn, when the plant is about to enter the winter period, the more dense branches and long branches can be cut off

Precautions

From its origin, it can be concluded that this plant is suitable for growing in areas with relatively high temperature, specifically 20 to 32 degrees Celsius. When the temperature drops below five degrees in winter, we should plan to move it indoors. Never leave it outdoors when the temperature is below zero degrees Celsius, otherwise it may cause plant death
