Method of Cultivating the Titanotrichum Multiflorum Succulent Plant
The editor provides an explanation for netizens about the cultivation of Titanotrichum Multiflorum succulents. Here is a detailed introduction to the cultivation method of Titanotrichum Multiflorum.
Titanotrichum Multiflorum is a perennial succulent herb in the Crassulaceae family, Gaolancai genus, classified as a medium to small-sized variety with thick and short stems. The plant has opposite, fleshy leaves. The leaves are spatulate, without a distinct tip, very thin, green in color, and when exposed to strong sunlight or large temperature differences, the edges of the leaves turn a beautiful red, which is very vibrant. Under weak light, the leaf color becomes slightly lighter green, the leaves stretch out, and the color becomes more dull. The leaf surface of Titanotrichum Multiflorum is smooth with thick white powder, which is somewhat rough. The plant needs ample sunlight and a large temperature difference for the leaf color to be vibrant and for the plant to be compact and aesthetically pleasing. After several years of clumping, the plant becomes very spectacular. The inflorescence of Titanotrichum Multiflorum blooms white flowers, which are very small.
Titanotrichum Multiflorum requires ample sunlight, a cool and dry environment, can tolerate semi-shade, but is afraid of waterlogging and dislikes humid heat. It has the habit of growing in cool seasons and dormant in high summer temperatures. From September of each year to June of the following year is the growing period of the plant (the growing period varies depending on the environment of the plant enthusiasts). Insufficient sunlight will cause the plant leaves to elongate; while plants growing in ample sunlight will have a shorter, stocky shape with relatively compact leaf arrangement.
During the growing period, Titanotrichum Multiflorum needs to maintain moist soil, avoiding waterlogging. The soil mix used is a combination of coal slag, peat, and a small amount of perlite, with a ratio of about 5:4:1, and the surface is covered with large-particle river sand. Titanotrichum Multiflorum can withstand temperatures as low as about -4°C indoors, not outdoors. Lower temperatures will cause the growing tips of the leaves to freeze and dry out, leading to death. During the entire winter, watering is basically stopped, and below 5 degrees, watering should be gradually reduced. In the high summer temperatures, the entire plant grows slowly or completely stops, at which time it is essential to ensure good ventilation and appropriate shading to avoid direct sunlight, moderate watering, and prevent prolonged rain, to avoid rotting of the plant.
The propagation of Titanotrichum Multiflorum usually involves cutting the top to burst young seedlings for propagation. The cut plant can be directly planted in dry, granular soil, and after roots develop, a small amount of water can be provided. Titanotrichum Multiflorum is a very easy-to-care-for variety.
