First, the growth environment
Brazil America has strong adaptability to the environment, can barely survive in the dark, can grow under strong light or scattered light, likes to be warm and humid, pays attention to the maintenance of basin soil, has certain drought resistance, pays attention to cold protection in winter, and the wintering temperature is not lower than 5℃.
Keep proper shade in summer, avoid sun exposure, spray water around regularly, maintain high environmental humidity, avoid water accumulation in the soil, and water frequently in a ventilated environment.
If you want to keep the beautiful leaves of Brazilian beauty, you must see the light properly. Even if there is no sunshine, you should ensure that there are about 8 hours of light every day. If you leave it in a dark place for a long time, its color will become dim.
The maintenance of the pot should also pay attention to proper water supply. There is more water demand in summer, so water it 1~2 times a week to ensure sufficient water.
The leaf surface should also be cleaned regularly to avoid dust in the leaf area, and water can be sprayed on the leaf surface regularly to increase the humidity of the surrounding environment.
Appropriate increase in environmental humidity can also prevent red spiders. Dry environment is easy to induce red spider, and leaves are easy to grow spots or turn yellow.
Second, the summer maintenance matters needing attention:
Summer maintenance should pay attention to avoid sun exposure, and the environment should be properly ventilated to avoid sultry and humid. When drying, water should be sprayed properly to increase the humidity of the environment.
Third, cutting propagation.
Brazilian beauties, like other plants in Dracaena, generally reproduce by cutting stems. When its stem becomes longer, it can be cut into segments, each segment is about 12 cm long. The bottom of the stem is cut obliquely, and the leaves at the bottom are removed, leaving 2~3 leaves at the top.
You can cultivate it in water first, soak it in water for 3~4 cm, change the water every two days, and put it in a ventilated and warm place to keep the ambient temperature at about 20~25 degrees.
Of course, it can also be directly cut into moist sandy soil to keep the soil moist, and spraying water regularly and applying a little rooting powder at the bottom of the stem can better promote rooting.
