How to care for滴水观音 in winter
This article brings you the knowledge about滴水观音 in the aspect of flowering plant care. How to care for滴水观音 in winter? The following editor will provide you with detailed answers.
滴水观音 is a common ornamental leaf plant, but how to care for滴水观音 in winter is a troublesome issue for flower lovers in the north of the Yangtze River. In the northern regions, indoor heating during winter allows滴水观音 to grow normally, and it is the same in the south. However, in areas without heating,滴水观音 can easily freeze or die. So, how should滴水观音 be cared for in winter?
Firstly, you should have a simple understanding of滴水观音.滴水观音 belongs to tropical plants and prefers a high temperature and humidity environment. The minimum temperature should not be below 5℃, or it may suffer frostbite. Otherwise, the care method is basically the same as in the summer. Watering should be controlled and avoid waterlogging. In rooms with heating in the north, make sure not to place it too close to the heater, as it may easily get burned.
In the northern open field cultivation, it is still acceptable in summer, but it is difficult to survive the winter. However, because the rootstocks of滴水观音 are well-developed, sometimes even if the top part freezes, the rootstocks can still sprout the following year (this requires brave attempts by flower lovers, as this is just a theory). The following image shows the滴水观音 cultivated in the open field in the northern region, and it has already looked like this in early December.
For indoor potted滴水观音 in the northern regions, in fact, the most important factor is temperature. If conditions allow, providing stable temperature is the best choice for surviving the winter. If it is impossible to provide temperature, it is recommended to bury it a little deeper in the soil. Even if the leaves freeze, ignore them. There should still be new seedlings sprouting in the spring.
