Last Updated: 2024/11/22, This is a perennial herb. It is widely distributed in China, or the city flower of Qingzhou City. Its flowers are bright and its green leaves are bright and shiny, so it is more popular. However, the choice of soil is very important for its growth. What kind of soil is better?

1. Specific requirements

(1) the first point is looseness. Most plants have this requirement. Only when the flower soil is loose, it is beneficial to plant respiration. On the contrary, soil caking is the most unfavorable to plant growth.

(2) the second requirement is good drainage. This is because although this plant likes to be moist, it is also afraid of waterlogging. If there is too much water, it is likely to corrode the roots. If the drainage is good, even if it is poured at one time, it can be discharged in time.

(3) the third is air permeability, which, like the loose one, is also good for breathing.

(4) there is also the nutrition it contains. This kind of plant needs a lot of nutrients from growth to flowering. Generally speaking, we need to fertilize regularly. If the selected soil contains more nutrients, then fertilization can be less.

(5) the last one is about pH. Acidic soil is the most suitable for this plant. However, it should not be too sour.

2. Allocation of soil

(1) it can be mixed with rotten leaf soil and garden soil. After mixing according to the ratio of two to one, add some superphosphate. In this way, the nutritious soil is prepared.

(2) Peat and perlite can also be used. They are also mixed evenly according to the ratio of two to one. Then, prepare the mud, break it and dry it in the sun, then mix it in.

3. Points for attention

Because it needs more nutrients, it can be mixed with a little base fertilizer in the soil.
