1、 Curing method

1. Temperature: a warm environment is most suitable. In such an environment, its growth speed is the fastest. Generally, the temperature should be controlled between 23 and 32 degrees. In summer, as long as the temperature is not higher than 35 degrees, it will have no impact. In winter, it can be placed in a shelter from the wind, so as to survive the winter safely

2. Watering: the blue butterfly should keep the soil moist during its growth. The moist soil can grow well, and the growth rate will also increase. Especially in summer, we should pay more attention to watering. In hot weather, we need to replenish water by spraying water mist, which can also reduce the temperature and have the best of both worlds

3. Light: in summer, you should pay attention to shade and not be directly exposed to strong light, otherwise the newly opened flowers will be withered by the sun, and the phenomenon of flowering and early falling will also occur. Blue butterfly likes warm and sufficient light. Warm sunshine is most suitable for its growth

4. Fertilization: fertile soil is conducive to development, so some base fertilizer needs to be applied before colonization, and fertilizer should be applied many times during subsequent breeding. Urea can be topdressing once in summer to promote the growth rate. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be used in autumn, so that its growth will be very healthy

2、 Breeding skills

1. Propagation: cutting is the main propagation method, which can be carried out at any time from spring to autumn. However, the germination at this stage of late spring and early summer is the fastest. 15 cm branches should be selected for cutting. After cutting, the temperature and watering should also be controlled, and they can be transplanted after germination

2. Pruning: it needs to be pruned once in early summer, mainly to cut off some ineffective side branches and dead branches and leaves, so as to increase the ventilation of the plant and help it grow into a more perfect plant type

3、 Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Disease: root rot occurs because the root of the plant is not ventilated enough and watered too much in summer. Wettable powder can be used to control it

2. Pests: aphids will appear. This pest has the greatest impact on flowering and can be controlled by spraying trichlorfon solution

4、 Other issues

1. Toxicity: although it has been used to make tea, its stems are actually toxic, so we must choose flower and bone flowers when making tea, and we can't drink too much each time

2. Whether it can be raised at home: Yes, it has a unique appearance and high ornamental value, which is suitable for breeding
