Huangli, at first hearing, sounds like a person's name. In fact, it is actually a type of succulent. A very beautiful rosette plant. Quite a few people like to grow it at home. So how do you grow Huangli so it bursts into a full pot? Below, the Tudiu.com editor gives everyone some tips~
How to grow Huangli so it bursts into a full pot
1. Prepare the soil
First, choose a breathable, well-draining soil. You can mix your own soil, using coarse sand, peat soil and potting soil for mixed cultivation. For Huangli's soil, you can mix coal cinders with peat at a ratio of half and half.
2. Plenty of light
Huangli likes light and cannot tolerate shade, though partial shade is acceptable. If it is kept in a shady place for a long time, its plant will be more prone to leggy growth, and its leaves will also grow more loosely. Spring and autumn are its vigorous growth periods, and we can give it full-sun cultivation. In summer it enters a slight dormancy period, so shade measures should be taken.
3. Suitable temperature
The suitable growth temperature for Huangli is 16-27 degrees. In summer, at high temperatures above 30 degrees, the plant will enter a dormancy period. In winter, when the temperature is below 4 degrees, it will also enter a slow dormancy period. The wintering temperature must be kept above 5 degrees, and a relatively good ventilation environment must be maintained to be more conducive to its growth.
4. Fertilizer and water management
1. When watering Huangli, wait until it has dried out completely before watering it again. When it is not dry, there is no need to water it. It cannot tolerate waterlogging, so if there is prolonged rainfall, be sure to move it indoors to shelter from the rain
2. In the hot summer, water it 4-5 times a month, and water thoroughly, just maintaining its normal growth. Watering too much in summer can also more easily cause root rot
3. In winter, when the temperature is below 4 degrees, gradually cut off the water. At temperatures below 3 degrees, keep the potting soil in a dry state. Generally, it is best not to cultivate it at a temperature below 5 degrees.
