How to water Aptenia cordifolia correctly in summer

Flowers & Gardening 0 views
Aptenia cordifolia (heartleaf ice plant) grows very vigorously in summer, so water it once every 3 to 5 days; normally you can spray water on the leaves and around the flower pot to maintain higher air humidity. Do not water too much; keeping the soil slightly moist is enough. In addition, when watering, be sure to wait until the soil has completely dried out before watering.

I. How to water

Aptenia cordifolia (heartleaf ice plant) grows very vigorously in summer, and at this time it needs a lot of water, so water it once every 3 to 5 days; normally you can spray water toward the leaves and around the flower pot to maintain higher air humidity. Do not water too much either; keeping the soil slightly moist is enough. Watering too much will cause waterlogging in the soil, which will make the plant's roots rot.

II. Points to note

Aptenia cordifolia (heartleaf ice plant) does not have particularly high water requirements, so when watering, follow one principle: be sure to wait until the soil has dried out before watering again. If the soil has not dried yet, do not water for now. In addition, when watering, choose the morning or the evening; it is best not to water at noon.
