Is the purple pearl easy to raise?

Purple pearl maintenance is not difficult, as long as pay attention to soil, temperature, light, watering, fertilization.

2. Temperature: purple pearl prefers warm environment, the suitable temperature for growth is 15-25 ℃, the temperature should not be too high or too low, the plant stops growing when it is higher than 35 ℃, or slightly frostbitten when it is lower than 5 ℃, and the water frozen cells in leaves below 0 ℃ are necrotic.

3. Lighting: purple pearls like light, shade tolerance, not resistant to hot sun exposure, in the case of temperature permit, it is best to put outdoor maintenance, to ensure that the light can be more than 4 hours a day, lack of light will lead to overgrowth of plants, leaves are light green or dark green.
