1、 Soil

If the built-in basin soil hardens seriously, replace the soil. Use neutral or slightly acidic soil instead of alkaline soil. Garden soil and rotten leaf soil can be mixed to increase the humus of the soil and ensure the drainage and nutritional foundation of the soil

2、 Environment

Stick stem Begonia is a very light loving plant. It's best to breed it on a sunny balcony or an outdoor place with full sunshine when you buy it home. I like mild temperature and good ventilation. If it is placed in a place where the sun is direct for a long time, it needs to be shaded and cooled in summer

3、 Watering

It likes a humid environment, but it is afraid of soil ponding, which is the reason why it requires good soil drainage. Watering means watering through water and watering when dry. When you first buy it home, if the basin is wet, you can not water it first. If the basin soil is too dry, you can pour some water and less water to prevent ponding

4、 Fertilization

When changing pots, a layer of base fertilizer can be added at the bottom to further improve the fertility of the soil. Use compound fertilizer about twice after flowering. It is best to use phosphorus and potassium fertilizer in July and August, not too much, which is conducive to its flower bud differentiation. Ordinary fertilizer can be used in November to promote the growth of trees

5、 Pruning

It is best to prune the flowering Begonia after it blooms, and cut the flowering branches short to facilitate the formation of its branches and flower buds. After falling leaves in autumn, you can also trim the shape of branches and cut off bad branches, which is conducive to the growth of the second year and the beauty of tree shape
