It's that time again, and the little flower brings you another technique. Are you looking forward to what the little flower will talk about today? If you have any knowledge you want to learn, remember to comment to the little flower, and the little flower can communicate with you directly in the comment section. Okay, let's not waste time on courtesy and get into today's main topic.
Although 麒麟掌 is a rather elegant potted plant, it is considered a lazy person's potted plant because its daily maintenance is very simple for beginners. However, even though it's simple, we should not overlook some key points.
For instance, the sap of 麒麟掌 is toxic. Don't think that you can just trim it casually, but you need to set up special pruning tools for it to prevent the毒液 (venom) on the tools from damaging the growth of other plants when you trim them after trimming 麒麟掌. What are the other key points? Let's talk about them one by one!
Firstly, 麒麟掌 can grow very strong, but its roots are not very developed, so we must grasp the degree of watering. We must water it only when the potting soil is completely dry. But because it is a plant that is particularly drought-resistant, we should water it along the edge of the pot. This way, it won't be too much water and it will be enough for 麒麟掌 to use. If there is too much water, this plant is prone to root rot, so everyone should be careful.

Secondly, we must give this plant enough sunlight. Sunlight can bring green palm leaves to 麒麟掌, and if it grows well, it may even appear dark green, which looks very spectacular when shaped into a bonsai. At the same time, sunlight can also cause excess water to evaporate, thus avoiding the phenomenon of plant root rot.
The last thing the little flower wants to talk about is that this plant grows very fast. Because it likes sunlight, it can grow very well even in the high temperatures of summer, but still be careful not to expose it to the sun too often, and try to place the plant in a semi-shaded area. This allows the plant to grow faster and look better.
Because it grows relatively fast, the nutrition cannot keep up, so we must supplement nitrogen-potassium fertilizer or multi-element fertilizers for 麒麟掌 in time. With proper nutrition, the plant will grow fatter and stronger.
