1、 Breeding environment

1. Soil: loose and fertile rotten leaf soil should be selected for cultivation. Soil replacement shall be carried out every spring

2. Illumination: put it where there is bright scattered light. After determining the position, do not move the position at will, which will affect its coupling and germination

4. Fertilization: Epiphyllum likes fertilizer, so it should be fertilized more during the growth period, and a small amount of bone meal can be added. However, do not apply raw fertilizer and thick fertilizer. Proper fertilization can make Epiphyllum big and gorgeous

2、 Breeding method

1. Cutting propagation: cutting is mostly carried out in May, and the survival rate is relatively high

2. Grafting propagation: it is generally grafted on Lingjian flower. Select a strong Lingjian flower, cut a small opening, select a abnormal stem of Epiphyllum that is about the size of the incision, wrap it with cloth, and put it in a place with good light and ventilation to raise flowers

3、 Pest control
