1、 Curing method

1. Temperature: because it likes warmth, the usual curing temperature can be maintained between 15 and 25 degrees. In summer, it is very afraid of high temperature. Therefore, when it is higher than thirty degrees, it is better to adjust by spray cooling. In winter, we also have to prevent cold. Try not to be lower than 10 degrees and at least not lower than 5 degrees

2. Light: lanterns like light. If it is in a very dark place, it will not only grow in vain, but also greatly affect its later flowering. However, too strong light will not work. When encountering direct light in summer, be sure to cover it or move it directly to a cool place, because too strong light will shrink its leaves

3. Watering: lanterns like water and need to be kept moist during their growth period. But it can't be too wet. It will lead to rotten roots and easy to lose leaves

4. Fertilization: in its maintenance, regular fertilization is required. Generally speaking, once a week to ten days. In addition, organic fertilizer before planting is also more important. No fertilizer is needed in winter

2、 Breeding skills

1. Propagation: because lanterns basically have no seeds, cutting is the main way. It is more suitable in January, February or October. Select appropriate branches, and then cut them into small segments with a length of five to eight centimeters for cutting. The best temperature after cutting is between 15 and 20 degrees. It will take about twenty days to take root

2. Pruning: pruning is also important in its maintenance. In order to make it bloom more, it can be trimmed slightly before flowering. After flowering, the main repair is its flowers. When you encounter some dry leaves, don't let them stay on the branches

3、 Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Diseases: the "root rot" is more likely to occur, which is generally caused by too much watering. Water control and chemicals should be used. There is also "powdery mildew", which has symptoms on leaves, buds and flowers, and can be prevented and treated with mancozeb

2. Insect pests: there are "whitefly", "aphid", "red spider", etc., which can be wiped off with a wet rag or sprayed with medicine

4、 Other issues

1. Toxicity: it is non-toxic and can be safely cultured

2. Whether it can be raised at home: its flower shape is relatively strange, which is suitable for viewing at home as a potted plant
