1、 Breeding method

1. Soil: Sweet mahogany soil has strong adaptability and grows better in loose, fertile and well drained soil. It can also be planted in sticky soil and can grow well through careful maintenance

2. Light: Sweet mahogany is suitable for growing in a place with good light. However, in summer, it is necessary to shade properly to avoid strong light irradiation, so as to avoid leaf burns and water loss. Insufficient light during the growth period will lead to plant overgrowth and affect its flowering

3. Watering: Sweet mahogany is drought resistant and afraid of flooding. Watering should not be too much. If there is ponding, it needs to be discharged immediately. However, long-term drought is unfavorable to its flowering, so it is necessary to increase the number of watering to ensure that the soil is moist

4. Fertilization: Sweet mahogany has a high demand for fertilizer. Only with sufficient nutrients can it bloom continuously. And unlike many plants, it also needs to be fertilized during flowering to supplement nutrients in time

2、 Reproductive skills

Sweet mahogany is propagated by cutting. Although it can also be sown, the growth cycle of cuttings is shorter and the survival rate is higher. If it is more difficult to cuttage valuable varieties, they can be propagated by layering or grafting

3、 Pest control

1. Diseases: common diseases include black spot, powdery mildew and so on. It is necessary to remove the diseased branches and leaves and spray carbendazim for control

2. Insect pests: the main pests include scale insects, aphids, etc. if the daily maintenance is appropriate, the probability of insect pests can be reduced
