Succulent plant-millet star

Millet star is a perennial succulent herb, with erect and tufted plants, many small branches, fleshy stems, perennial stalks gradually semi-lignified, fleshy green to light green, ca. 0.5 cm long and 0.4 cm wide; leaf margin slightly red, late autumn and early spring, especially T time. There is a great difference in temperature. Leaves alternate, opposite, elliptic, triangular, petiolate, base interlocking, new leaves superimposed at top and bottom, leaves slightly above and below. Flowering 4-5 months, white, stellate, petals 5-6 petals, clustered, usually full of branches, quite gorgeous; not dying after anthesis. Small varieties, flowering plants are only about 12 cm tall.

Millet star

Millet star needs sunny cool, dry environment, semi-cool, afraid of flooding, to avoid hot and humid. It has a habit of growing in cold seasons and resting in summer heat. This is the "winter type" of perennials. The period from September to June of the following year is the growing period of plants (the growing period is also long because the environment of flowers is different). If there is not enough light, the plant grows and the upper and lower distance between the leaf and the leaf lengthens, which makes the plant type loose and the red edge of the leaf smaller. The arrangement between them is very tight. The kite star is placed in the sunshine room. During the growth period, the soil should be kept moist to avoid stagnant water.

Millet star

The millet star can withstand a low temperature of about minus 2 degrees Celsius, which is the indoor temperature, not the open air. The top growing point of the low leaves will appear frostbite, dry up, and die, and the new year will be relived in the withered place. The water is basically cut off throughout the winter, and water will begin to be contained slowly below 5 degrees. Under the high temperature in summer, the whole plant grows slowly or completely. At this time, it should be well ventilated, sunshade, avoid exposure, return water, not long-term rainfall, to prevent plant decay.

Millet star

Millet star is a good breeding variety. The head cutting method is generally used. Take the branches that grow well, cut them into segments with a length of 3-5 cm, then cut them directly in dry granular soil or vermiculite, and water them within a few days. Millet star leaves often grow small air roots. If they come into contact with the right soil, they will take root firmly in the soil. Another advantage of beheading breeding is that it can repair parent plants at the same time. After cutting the head, it will regenerate new growth points, and sometimes sprout many new shoots.
