LightingJilu Yue likes plenty of sunshine, so it should be placed in a place with sufficient light. In summer, pay attention to avoid strong direct sunlight to prevent leaf sunburn. In autumn and spring, it can be placed outdoors to enjoy plenty of scattered light. In winter, it should be moved indoors to avoid cold and insufficient light.
WateringThe watering principle of Jilu Yue is "better dry than wet", that is, keep the soil slightly dry. When watering, it should be done in the morning or evening, avoiding midday high temperatures. When watering, make sure the water can fully penetrate the soil, but also pay attention to avoid waterlogging. If the soil drainage is poor, it may lead to root rot.

BreedingThe main breeding methods of Jilu Yue are division and cutting. Division is to separate the healthy Jilu Yue plant from the mother plant and plant it separately. Cutting is to insert the leaves or branches of Jilu Yue into the soil and wait for them to take root and sprout. Whichever method is used, it is important to keep the soil moist to increase the survival rate.
