1. Environment
The Buddhist Pine requires a growing environment with good ventilation, so it is not suitable for long periods of warm cultivation indoors; outdoor care is far better than indoor care.
2. Water
The Buddhist Pine's water requirement is that it is drought-tolerant and afraid of waterlogging. During care, we only need to keep the potting soil adequately moist, and avoid root rot caused by waterlogging.
3. Soil
When growing the Buddhist Pine, give it a loose, fertile, acidic loam; an alkaline environment will cause poor growth.
