Bolu's Cultivation Methods
A comprehensive introduction to the topic of bolu cultivation at home, discussing bolu's cultivation methods. Let's take a look together.
Bolu belongs to the genus Haworthia in the Lily family, and some flower enthusiasts also call it Lingjin. Let's explore the cultivation methods of bolu. Bolu prefers to grow in well-drained, loose soil that does not compact easily. Some sand and ash can be mixed into the soil, and adding decomposed leaf mold is even better. Poorly drained and ventilated soil can impede root respiration, leading to root rot and necrosis. However, too much sandy soil often causes the loss of water and nutrients, resulting in poor growth.
Bolu is afraid of the cold; it grows in an environment without frost all year round. It stops growing at around 5°C, and at 0°C, its life processes are obstructed. If the temperature drops below 0°C, it will freeze. The most suitable growth temperature is between 15-25°C, with humidity between 45-50%. It is afraid of waterlogging.
It is important to note that during rainy and humid seasons or in cases of poor drainage, the leaves can easily wither, the roots rot, and even lead to death. Therefore, bolu requires ample sunlight during its daily care.
Additionally, flower enthusiasts need to understand that bolu is a hybrid of the Haworthia genus, which is an intergeneric hybrid between Aloe (Aloe) and Gasteria (Gasteria). Bolu is a hybrid variety of Aloe aristata and Gasteria verrucosa, with a rosette-shaped plant, diameter of about 10-20 cm, and height of about 20-30 cm. The leaves are succulent, triangular with a sharp tip, deep green, with white spines on the surface and edges. The raceme inflorescence has orange-red flowers.
