Culture method of Crystal Palm

Crystal palm is a kind of succulent plant native to South Africa. With the gradual popularity of succulent plants in recent years, crystal palm is becoming more and more popular. The leaves of the crystal palm are distributed in the shape of a rosette, emerald green, and the mesophyll is translucent, somewhat similar to ice lantern jade dew, looking very crystal clear and deeply liked by succulent lovers. Below, the pro-agricultural network will introduce the breeding methods of crystal palms for you.

I. growth habits

Crystal palm originated from South Africa, affected by the current climate, crystal palm likes a warm and humid growth environment. It is relatively drought-tolerant, but not cold-resistant or heat-resistant. The most suitable growth temperature is about 20 ℃ ~ 25 ℃. The soil is required to be fertile and well drained.

Second, the culture method of crystal palm

1. Moisture content

New plants should not be watered too much, so as not to cause plant rot. Wait until new roots are grown before they can be watered normally. The amount of water should also be well controlled, usually not dry and not watered, not too much water at a time, do not form stagnant water, otherwise it will lead to rotting roots. However, the reproductive ability of this plant is very strong, if the rhizome is rotten, take a relatively complete leaf, after a simple treatment can be replanted.

two。 Soil and basin selection

Crystal palm cultivation soil to choose sand, soil half of the soil, you can also add some bone powder to cultivate. After the crystal palm is mature, the size of the whole plant will not be particularly large, and the height will not exceed 10 cm, so you can choose to plant it in a relatively small flowerpot, one is easy to put, and the other is to enjoy it.

3. Temperature

The spring and autumn season is the fastest growing season of the crystal palm, we should pay attention to the temperature adjustment, avoid the temperature is too high or too low, this will lead to the crystal palm into a dormant state, to carry out appropriate shading. When the summer temperature is too high, spray water into the basin to cool down, pay attention to the high temperature and humidity will cause the root of the crystal palm to rot.

4. Fertilizer application

The growth of crystal palm does not need too much fertilizer, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be applied once or twice a year in spring. Pay attention to fertilization, do not drop fertilizer on the leaves of crystal palm, otherwise macula will appear.

5. Light

The crystal palm's leaves are glittering and translucent, which is also the embodiment of its main ornamental value. If it is exposed to strong light for a long time, it is likely to lead to a large amount of water evaporation of the leaves, which will cause the leaves to become dry and discolored. Therefore, it is necessary to place the crystal palm in a semi-shady place. The crystal palm growing in this environment is as clear as jelly.

The above are the breeding methods and matters needing attention of the crystal palm brought by the pro-agricultural network, hoping to be helpful to everyone. The crystal palm can usually be placed on several cases or on the desk, like a handicraft decorating the family environment.
