1、 Curing method

1. Temperature: Zebra aloe likes warmth, which is more suitable between 20 and 28 degrees. In winter, because it is afraid of cold, it can ensure that the winter temperature is above 10 degrees to avoid freezing

2. Light: Zebra aloe is light loving. It can withstand half shade to a certain extent, but it can't be shaded for a long time. Generally speaking, it can be shaded in summer and provide sufficient sunshine in other seasons. In winter, sunshine is also very important, otherwise its leaves may turn red and affect the growth of the next year

3. Watering: Zebra aloe is very drought resistant, but it is not waterlogging resistant. Therefore, watering must be based on the principle of "better dry than wet". During the growing season, the substrate can be kept in a semi wet state. In winter, it needs to be slightly dry

4. Fertilization: Zebra aloe has a limited demand for fertilizer. Generally speaking, it can only be used in spring. And it doesn't need too much. Generally, one or two times is enough. Liquid fertilizer can be used

2、 Breeding skills

1. Reproduction: the method of plant division can be used to reproduce. The method is very simple and can be carried out throughout the year. In the specific operation, select a strong and vigorous mother plant, and then observe whether there are small plants growing on it. These can be used as breeding materials. After peeling off, plant them in the basin respectively. Maintenance is also relatively simple

2. Change basin: try to change it once a year. The best season is from April to May. It can also be carried out together with reproduction, which is relatively simple. The degree of porosity and drainage are the main considerations in the selection of soil. Specifically, loam and sandy soil can be used

3、 Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Diseases: the two main diseases are "brown spot" and "root rot". All can be prevented and treated with mancozeb. The former needs to be supplemented by measures to trim leaves, while the latter needs to control water

2. Insect pests: mainly "whitefly" and "scale insects". They can be treated with the cream of dimethoate

4、 Other issues

1. Toxicity: Zebra aloe is non-toxic, and its leaves have a strong ability to absorb harmful substances

2. Whether it can be raised at home: as a foliage plant, it has a very good effect and can be used for viewing at home
