How to care for Ji Qiu Li
Today, the editor will explain the experience of caring for the succulent plant Ji Qiu Li. How to care for Ji Qiu Li? Here is a detailed introduction.
Ji Qiu Li is a succulent plant from the Sedum family, Genus Crassula. The leaves of Ji Qiu Li are plump and round. Under strong light, the leaves will show a lovely orange-red color, and they will have a slight metallic sheen in the sunlight. Over time, the leaves may develop a light powdery substance, making them very adorable. Don't be fooled by the large pictures; Ji Qiu Li is actually a very tiny variety, with a single head measuring only about 1 centimeter. The flowers of Ji Qiu Li are white, with five petals, and the shape of the flowers is the same as that of Qiu Li flowers, differing only in color and size.
In summer, when the temperature exceeds 35 degrees Celsius, Ji Qiu Li should be watered less and enter dormancy. The dormant period should be in a cool and well-ventilated place. The plant can easily die in extreme heat. Although it is kept outdoors, once the temperature exceeds 35 degrees Celsius, it will be moved to a bright area with scattered light to gradually reduce watering. During the entire dormant period, minimal or no watering is needed (Note: Different environments may require different care; some friends may not need to put the plant into dormancy.). By mid-September, when the temperature drops, watering can be resumed. In winter, if the temperature can be maintained above 0 degrees Celsius, watering can continue. Below 0 degrees Celsius, watering should be stopped to prevent frostbite. Although it is cold in winter, it is not necessary to completely stop watering during the entire season. Some water can be given at the plant's roots at appropriate times, but avoid spraying or giving too much water, as prolonged moisture in the leaf heart can cause rot. In spring, as the temperature rises, watering can be gradually restored to normal.
Except for the summer when shading is necessary, the plant can be exposed to full sunlight in other seasons. The soil used by the editor is a mix of peat and particle-sized pumice or river sand, with a clean layer of river sand on the surface, focusing on soil breathability.
The main methods of propagating Ji Qiu Li are leaf insertion or cutting propagation.
