About the cultivation of the money tree to make it more lush and the methods and techniques of money tree cultivation in the field of green plants and flowers, let's take a look together.
The scientific name of the money tree is "Pachira aquatica", which is mainly distributed in the tropical regions of America, and is cultivated in the South China region for road greening and garden decoration. The money tree prefers a humid growing environment but dislikes high temperature and humidity. It thrives in a well-lit environment, has strong drought and shade tolerance, and can withstand 0℃ low temperatures. Next, let's understand the cultivation methods of the money tree from aspects such as lighting conditions, temperature control, and water and fertilizer management.
1. Lighting conditions
When cultivating a money tree, pay attention to its position. Placing the money tree in an outdoor or indoor diffused light area for maintenance is best, and proper ventilation should also be ensured. In the summer, when the light is too strong, it is necessary to provide shade to prevent the leaves of the money tree from being burned by strong sunlight.
2. Temperature control
The money tree prefers to grow in a warm and humid environment. Maintaining the temperature at around 25℃ is suitable. In the summer, when the temperature is too high, the indoor temperature should be controlled to not exceed 33℃, otherwise, it will affect the growth and development of the plant. In winter, when the temperature is too low, the indoor temperature should be controlled to not fall below 8℃, otherwise, it will slow down the growth and development of the plant or cause low-temperature frost damage, leading to the death of the plant.
3. Water and fertilizer management
In the process of cultivating a money tree, it is necessary to provide sufficient water to promote the growth and development of the plant, watering 2-3 times per week to supplement moisture. In addition, the amount and frequency of watering should be adjusted according to the changes in seasonal weather. In the summer, when the temperature is high and water evaporates quickly, it is necessary to increase the amount of watering. In the winter, when the temperature is low and water evaporates slowly, it is necessary to reduce the amount of watering. During the growing period of the money tree, attention should also be paid to the use of fertilizer, applying it once a month, preferably using phosphorus fertilizer or organic fertilizer, which is beneficial for plant growth, but the amount should be controlled. Excessive application may burn the plant's roots.
The above information provides a comprehensive introduction to how to cultivate a money tree to make it more lush and the methods and techniques of money tree cultivation. I hope it brings some knowledge about green plants to green plant enthusiasts.
