I saw a kind of potted plant in a friend. At first, I thought it was a green apple, but there were a few white flowers on it, which was really surprising. It was later learned that this super-like "green apple" plant is called Hosta.

Speaking of, Hosta is a perennial root plant of Liliaceae, its leaves are very broad and green, and it will produce flawless white flowers from August to October, with a fragrant smell. One plant can open a few to a dozen flowers, the buds are like hairpins, and the flowers are shaped like trumpets.

Hosta is not only shaped like green pineapple, but also easy to grow in potted plants.

Hosta does not have high requirements for soil, as long as it is not clay, soil with better drainage is OK, but if it is to grow better, potted plants, like most plants, fertile and loose sandy loam soil is the most suitable for its growth.

Hosta is a typical negative plant, like the shady and humid environment, can not be exposed to the sun, by strong light, the leaves turn yellow, but also easy to grow spots on the leaves, affecting the ornamental. When potted at home, the hairpin can be maintained in a place with bright light indoors.

In terms of watering, Hosta likes to be wet, and it is necessary to pour more water during its growing period, and to keep the pot soil slightly moist, but pay attention to although it likes water, but after entering autumn, the temperature decreases, it must be watered less, and the pot soil is dry and wet. Be careful not to accumulate water in the flowerpot.

Fertilization is convenient, thin fertilizer can be applied frequently in spring and autumn, nitrogen fertilizer and water are applied every 10 days, and fertilization can be stopped in summer and winter.

Hosta is also very resistant to the cold, and the winter temperature is above 5 ℃. In other words, the south can be raised all the year round, and the north can survive the winter safely in a warm place indoors.
