However, many people do not know how to cultivate plants, so most people want to know how to cultivate Guangdong evergreen. In fact, it is relatively simple, just needing proper watering and fertilizing. Let's follow the editor to learn about the cultivation methods and precautions of Guangdong evergreen.
【One, how to cultivate Guangdong evergreen】
Guangdong evergreen is a plant with strong vitality, preferring to grow in warm and humid environments. Even if it is not watered for a few days, it will not cause the plant to suddenly die. Therefore, it can be said that Guangdong evergreen is a relatively easy plant to cultivate, just needing proper watering and fertilizing.
However, plant enthusiasts should note that while the plant needs some sunlight, it should not be placed directly under the sun, as this can lead to leaf withering. Therefore, plant enthusiasts should not only ensure the plant gets some sunlight but also cultivate it in a ventilated environment.
【Two, cultivation methods and precautions of Guangdong evergreen】
<1. Reasonable watering>
Watering Guangdong evergreen should keep the potting soil moist in summer, while in spring and autumn, it should not be watered too frequently, and watering should be controlled in winter. As evergreen has a fleshy root system, it is most afraid of waterlogging, and excessive watering can easily cause root rot. However, it is necessary to keep the air moist, as dry air can easily lead to leaf tip drying and other adverse phenomena. In dry seasons, attention should be paid to spraying water around the plant to increase air humidity.
<2. Temperature requirements>
Guangdong evergreen prefers a warm living environment and is not cold-resistant. The overwintering temperature should be maintained at 5℃ to 8℃ or above for normal growth. The optimal overwintering temperature for the three varieties of Guangdong evergreen, Java asparagus, yellow spotted asparagus, and spotted leaf asparagus, should not be lower than 18℃.
<3. Moderate sunlight>
Guangdong evergreen prefers a semi-shady environment and is highly shade-tolerant, fearing direct sunlight. It can be cultivated and maintained indoors for a long time, even in overly dark places, without the plant becoming leggy like other plants. It should be avoided to expose it to strong sunlight in summer, as excessive light can easily cause leaf tip drying, burning edges, or even yellowing, affecting the ornamental effect. Therefore, shading is necessary after taking it out in early spring.
<4. Fertilization management>
Evergreen has thick leaves and is always green, requiring a high amount of fertilizer. During the growing season, it is necessary to apply a well-rotted organic liquid fertilizer made from rapeseed cakes or meat bones every half month. After normal cultivation in spring, a ratio of 1:6 to 1:8 can be used to apply a liquid fertilizer every 7-10 days.
