What should you pay attention to when growing desert rose? The following editor will explain them one by one, hoping to help you. Is Desert Rose easy to grow?Just hearing the name of Desert Rose, you will think that this plant is easy to grow, and it is indeed quite easy to grow. However, Desert Rose is most afraid of three environments: one is too stuffy, one is too humid, and one is too shady. If you place the Desert Rose in any of these three environments, it will soon die, so you must pay attention when maintaining it. How to grow Desert Rose1. Suitable temperature and lightDesert rose can withstand heat but not cold. The suitable growth temperature is 20-30 degrees Celsius. The room temperature must be kept above 10 degrees Celsius in winter to survive the winter safely. It likes an environment with sufficient light, so it should be placed on a sunny balcony or windowsill. 2. Appropriate water and fertilizer supplyDesert rose is drought-tolerant but not waterlogged. When watering, wait until the surface of the pot soil is completely dry before watering. Generally, water it every 3-5 days in spring and autumn, every two days in summer, and every 5-7 days in winter. During its growth period, more phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be applied, and nitrogen fertilizers should be controlled to prevent its branches from growing too long. Fertilization should be applied every 3 weeks during the growth period, and fertilization should be stopped during the winter dormancy period. 3. Appropriate shaping and pruningDuring the normal maintenance process, you should also pay attention to the pruning of the plants. If you don't pay attention to pruning, the branches will easily grow too long, affecting the ornamental effect of the plants. Pruning depends on personal preference, but you should pay attention to the basic principle, which is to leave more branches so that more flowers can be produced. 4. Timely pest and disease controlThe disease that Desert Rose is generally susceptible to is leaf spot. When infected, it can be controlled with 1000 times solution of 50% thiophanate-methyl. The insect pest that it is easily infected with is scale insects. When infected, it can be sprayed with 1500 times solution of 40% omethoate. What soil is best for desert roses?The most common soils with good drainage that we can get are: coal slag, coarse sand, perlite, etc. In order to ensure nutrition, you can mix some nutrient soil or humus soil in it. These are not easy to find, so go to the market to buy special succulent soil. Because Desert Rose likes soil rich in calcium, you can add some bone meal in the pot as base fertilizer. |
