1、 Curing method

1. Soil: when planting in the basin, use rotten branch and leaf soil plus some coarse sand. The soil is well drained, fertile and dry, which is very suitable for the growth of Songxia

2. Moisture: breeding Songxia doesn't need to water too much and often. It's a dry plant. It's OK to dry the soil layer at ordinary times. Too wet and too much water is easy to cause root rot

3. Nutrients: when applying fertilizer, organic fertilizer is enough. The time is about once every 15 days

4. Light: it likes to grow in dry and well irradiated places, but it is afraid of strong light. Usually put it in a place with sufficient light for breeding. When the sun shines at noon, move it to a place with a little shade

2、 Breeding skills

1. Pruning: after one year of breeding, the plant will grow larger. At this time, it is necessary to change the pot. When changing pots, you should properly trim the dense roots, and then transplant them into large pots after pruning. When pruning, be light and don't hurt it by mistake

2. Propagation: Songxia will grow a lot of plants with the growth, and the absorption of nutrients will be much slower. Ramet propagation can greatly reduce these. Just cut off the crowded plants and transplant them into another flower pot

3、 Diagnosis and treatment problems

1. Spot blight: the most common disease during breeding is spot blight. Generally, in case of spot blight, it can be solved by spraying with chlorothalonil diluted with water

2. Rotten roots: pay attention to protection at ordinary times, do not let the water accumulated in the basin soil, and do not get caught in the rain. Cover it when it rains. The rotten roots shall be trimmed immediately, and the rotten positions shall be trimmed off

4、 Other issues

1. How to spend the winter: in winter, you need to move to indoor breeding. Low outdoor temperature will cause frostbite. Indoor breeding should be placed in a ventilated and sunny place

2. Whether it can be placed indoors: it can be cultured in the house. Songxia has a small and interesting appearance. It is very suitable for decoration in the house and is pleasing to the eyes
