1. Soil
Asagao Grass is native to the Tibet region of China, growing on high mountains and rocks, so it does not have any special requirements for soil. For home planting, just make sure to choose well-draining soil.
2. Cultivation Environment
Asagao Grass is heat and cold tolerant, preferring an environment with ample sunlight and good ventilation.
In spring and autumn, Asagao Grass is in its peak growing season. In summer, when temperatures exceed 40 degrees Celsius, the leaves tend to turn yellow, requiring shading and care. In winter, when temperatures are too low, the leaves will fall off, but with proper root insulation, the plant will recover and grow again in the spring.
3. Water and Fertilizer Management
Asagao Grass is drought and贫瘠 resistant.
Due to the dense growth of stems and leaves, Asagao Grass is prone to leaf积水. Therefore, when watering, avoid the leaves, and water slowly from the side of the pot or use the immersion pot method. It is best to follow the "wet-dry" principle.
Asagao Grass does not require much fertilizer. Supplementing with fertilizer once a month during the spring and autumn growing seasons is sufficient. In the hot summer and cold winter, fertilization can be omitted.
