The Buddha's Hand Flower is an ornamental plant belonging to the tongue-leaf flower genus of the Aizoaceae family. The leaves of the Buddha's Hand Flower are fleshy and bloom bright yellow small flowers under the sunlight from the Winter Solstice to the Beginning of Spring, which are dazzlingly golden. Some enthusiasts may not know how to cultivate the Buddha's Hand Flower. This article will briefly talk about how to cultivate the Buddha's Hand Flower based on the experience of enthusiasts.
The most prominent feature of the Buddha's Hand Flower is its drought resistance, as it is not very sensitive to the lack of water. Although the leaves may become slightly wrinkled and soft, the plant will become lush and green again in a few hours after watering. It must be noted that the Buddha's Hand Flower can only grow well when planted in a sunny balcony with plenty of sunlight, otherwise the leaves are prone to elongation and the plant's color becomes dull. The leaves of the Buddha's Hand are opposite, tongue-shaped, 6-12 centimeters long, and 2-2.5 centimeters wide. The fleshy leaves are嫩绿, semi-transparent, and glossy, while the old leaves are soft and the new leaves are hard. The single flower emerges from the leaf axil with a short peduncle, golden yellow, and the flowering period is from March to May. This Spring, the dainty and elegant Buddha's Hand Flower has bloomed four golden yellow flowers at the same time, continuously blooming, bringing a vibrant atmosphere.
What makes it most appealing is its blooming characteristic. The Buddha's Hand Flower can only bloom under bright sunlight, closing as soon as the sun sets, just like a child going to bed on time. If the next day is still a sunny day, it will bloom again with the appearance of sunlight; if it's a cloudy day, it will sleep all day long, and it will only bloom when the weather is sunny. Otherwise, it will continue to sleep. It blooms, closes, blooms again, and closes repeatedly for about four to five days (if the weather is good), and a small flower will finally wither.
