1、 Sufficient light

Longevity flower likes light very much. In a sunny environment, longevity flower can grow well, with thick leaves and vigorous flowering. If the longevity flower lacks light, it will lead to slender branches, thinner and smaller leaves, long plant type, poor flowering, dim flower color, and even large pieces of leaves falling. In hot summer, the light intensity is high, and the sun burns, making the leaf color yellow, resulting in withered and yellow leaves, so you should pay attention to shading

2、 Watering and fertilization

Changshou flower is relatively drought resistant. In the growing season, it can also be watered according to the principle of seeing dry and seeing wet to keep the soil moist. Apply secondary base fertilizer to Changshou flower when it is in the pot. In the peak growth season, apply thin compound liquid fertilizer every 15-20 days. After flower bud formation in November, apply 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution 1-2 times to supplement nutrient elements, promote vigorous growth and bright flowers

3、 Soil requirements

Longevity flower cannot be raised in sticky soil, which will lead to root rot and poor growth. The longevity flower can be raised in loose, breathable and well drained fertile soil. The soil can be mixed with 4 parts of rotten leaf soil, 4 parts of garden soil and 2 parts of river sand, plus a small amount of bone powder, which is beneficial to the development of root system

4、 Suitable temperature

The suitable temperature for the growth of Changshou flower is 20-25 ℃. Ventilation and cooling are required when it exceeds 32 ℃ in summer. In winter, it is necessary to move into a warm room to keep warm and overwinter

5、 Precautions

In the early stage of vigorous growth of Changshou flower, the heart should be picked, the branches and leaves should be trimmed during growth, and the residual flowers should be removed after flower decay, which can be conducive to the growth of Changshou flower in the later stage
