1、 Curing method

1. Substrate selection: it is more afraid of waterlogging, so it is best to use fertile soil with good drainage and permeability. Sand, rotten leaf soil and garden soil can be mixed in the proportion of 1:2:2

2. Light management: it likes light. Under the condition of sufficient sunshine, it can make the leaf color bright and green, the flowers delicate and beautiful, and the flowering period is long. It is best to keep it indoors in a bright place, but it is also necessary to avoid direct exposure to strong light. If it is placed in the shade for a long time, it will lead to lighter leaf color, less and less blooming

3. Water management: it is not weak in drought tolerance and is afraid of waterlogging. Watering can be done once when the basin soil is dry. At ordinary times, it can properly spray water on the plant leaf surface to maintain the environmental humidity and clean the ash in the leaf area, which is conducive to the plumpness and hypertrophy of the leaves

4. Temperature management: it likes a warm environment and is suitable for growing at 18 ℃ - 28 ℃. After the middle of October every year, the appropriate temperature is 10 ℃ - 14 ℃. In winter, the room temperature should not be lower than 7 ℃. If the temperature is lower than 5 ℃, it will cause freezing injury, plant defoliation and even death

2、 Breeding skills

1. Propagation method: it can be propagated by pressing strip or cutting, mainly cutting. Cutting is generally carried out in late spring. Use sterilized tools to cut a 10 cm long stem, stick rooting agent on the cutting position, and then carry out cutting. When cutting, the environmental temperature should be maintained at 20 ℃ - 25 ℃. After curing for about eight to ten weeks, the roots will take root. After about two weeks, the roots will develop well, and then transplanting can be carried out

2. Pruning method: it doesn't need to prune too often. Usually, pay attention to cutting off the rotten leaves in time

3、 Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Yellowing of leaves: there are many causes of yellowing of leaves. Insufficient or strong light, hardening of basin soil and improper management of water and fertilizer may lead to yellowing of leaves, which needs symptomatic prevention and treatment

2. Rotten roots: too thick fertilizer or ponding in the basin soil will cause rotten roots of the plant. At ordinary times, pay attention to keep the environment ventilated and well drained, and apply thin fertilizer frequently. If the root rot of the plant is serious, the whole plant shall be excavated and replaced with soil, and the flower pot shall be disinfected

4、 Other issues

1. Placement: its leaves are heart-shaped, beautiful leaves and beautiful flowers. It can be potted and cultured indoors in the sunny place, and can be moved to a cool place in summer

2. Flower language: its flower language is to convey love
