Plant Management Tips: This article provides information about the succulent plant Portulacaceae Yuzao, including how to cultivate it. The following is an introduction for netizens by the editor.
Yuzao is also known as "strange jade." It is not easy for Yuzao to form clusters. The flowers bloom in light pink or white,开花 in autumn, cross-pollination, and are diurnal bloomers. Yuzao enters deep dormancy in summer and is a highly succulent species, with other seasons being its growing period.
The planting material should focus on water permeability and breathability. During the growing period of Yuzao, it can be watered thoroughly after drying. Since it is a highly succulent species, it is best not to water too frequently, and half-day sun exposure is sufficient for good growth. Yuzao begins to wither and enter dormancy at the end of spring, and it needs to be placed in a bright and well-ventilated area with scattered light. Only a small amount of water should be given throughout the summer, as too much can cause rotting.
Yuzao usually requires little water, and even during the growing period, it may not be watered more than a few times a month. Basically, the pot should not be soaked in water. When the temperature drops in autumn, the small heads will start to appear again, and at this time, watering can be gradually increased to return to normal. If the plant is full, there is no need to supplement water.
In winter, Yuzao should be protected from low temperatures to prevent frostbite. The potting soil should be kept dry, and there is no problem with temperatures as low as minus 3 degrees Celsius in a dry state. There are significant differences between the north and south, and flower enthusiasts should cultivate the plant according to their own environment, with propagation mainly through seeding.
