Appendix: Growth habits of the "Xiao Ren Ji" plant.
The "Xiao Ren Ji" plant has a robust nature, preferring a warm, dry, and sunlit environment. It is drought-resistant and suitable for outdoor or semi-outdoor cultivation. The more sunlight it gets, the better it looks, and there's basically no need to worry about it dying. In the summer, when it enters a dormant period, it can be partially shaded. It's easy to determine if the "Xiao Ren Ji" has entered dormancy; just look at whether its leaves have a tendency to curl up. In spring and autumn, the "Xiao Ren Ji" grows rapidly and is more suitable for individual planting, easily growing into a large area.
Although the "Xiao Ren Ji" can tolerate some shade, prolonged exposure to low light can cause the leaves to turn green and become elongated, resulting in a loose plant shape that affects its ornamental value. Therefore, it is recommended to provide ample sunlight. When watering, it can be watered thoroughly after the soil is completely dry. Extending the interval between watering can make the leaves of the "Xiao Ren Ji" plant tighter and the color brighter. Spring is the blooming season for the "Xiao Ren Ji," and you can fertilize appropriately when watering to provide sufficient nutrition for blooming. If you do not want to observe the flowers, you can剪除 (cut off) the flowering branches in advance.
