Biqao is a succulent plant from the Crassulaceae family, belonging to the genus Sedum. It has thick, broad leaves with red edges and a color similar to that of an egg, resembling an egg-shaped lotus flower, which is beautiful! The leaves of Biqao are fragile and easily breakable, so extra care is needed when cultivating it.
Cultivation methods for Biqao: Potting soil: The soil requirement is not high, with the basic needs being loose, breathable, and good drainage. Temperature, sunlight: Biqao thrives in a sunny, cool, and dry environment and is a type of succulent plant that is relatively easy to grow, with the optimal temperature being 10 to 25 degrees Celsius. It can be exposed to full sun in spring and autumn, and shade should be provided in summer to avoid heat.
Watering: In summer, avoid direct exposure to sunlight and prolonged rain, as these can easily lead to root rot. In winter, it can be placed in a well-lit indoor area for continued care. Normally, water when the soil is not dry, and when watering, make sure to water thoroughly, about three times a month. When the temperature drops below 5 degrees Celsius in winter, reduce watering gradually to prevent frostbite, and keeping the potting soil dry can help it survive the winter safely.
Propagation: The propagation methods for Biqao (egg-shaped lotus) mainly include division and cutting. Leaf cutting and cutting the top are also possible—place the cuttings in slightly moist soil, put them in a place with scattered light and good ventilation, and wait quietly for them to root!
