Introduction of Yulu

Basic introduction: Haworthia obtusa var.pilifera is a "soft-leaf" variety in the 12-volume genus of Liliaceae. The department has a wide variety, the more common ones are grass jade dew, jade chapter, Ji jade dew, large jade dew, Mao jade dew, thorn jade dew and so on. Yulu plant is exquisite and small, rich in species, leaf color glittering and translucent, rich in variety, like a living handicraft, very lovely, is one of the popular small succulent plant varieties in recent years.

Morphological characteristics: perennial succulent herbs, the plant is solitary at the beginning, and then gradually shows the shape of community. The fleshy leaves are arranged in a compact rosette, the leaves are thick and plump, emerald green, and the upper half is transparent or translucent, called "window", with dark linear veins. Under the condition of sufficient sunlight, the vein is brown, and there is a small "beard" at the top of the leaf. Racemes loose, florets white.

Growth habits: Yulu is native to South Africa and likes a cool semi-shade environment. It mainly grows in spring and autumn, and is an "intermediate" variety of succulent plants. Drought-resistant, not cold-resistant, avoid high temperature and humidity and hot sun exposure, afraid of shade, but also afraid of soil water.

Matters needing attention in culture of Yulu

Soil: the soil requires loose and fertile soil, good drainage and air permeability, contains calcareous, and has thicker particles. Commonly used rotten leaf soil 2 parts, coarse sand or vermiculite 3 parts of mixed soil, and mixed with a small amount of bone powder and other calcareous materials. For high-grade varieties such as Yulu Shoujin and Mao Yulu, they can also be planted with synthetic materials such as red jade soil, orchid stone, phytolith and Samoan soil, but an appropriate amount of peat or peat soil should be added to increase the content of organic matter in the soil.

Lighting: sufficient light should be given during the growing period. If it is too shaded, it will cause loose plant shape, not compact, long and thin leaves, and poor transparency of the "window". If the light is too strong, the leaves will grow poorly, showing a light reddish brown, and sometimes the strong direct sunlight will burn the leaves, leaving ugly stains. The plants growing in the semi-shade will have plump and transparent leaves.

Moisture: water during the growing period to master "do not dry, do not water, water thoroughly", to avoid stagnant water, not to rain, especially not long-term rain, all these are to avoid rotting roots. However, it is not suitable for long-term drought, otherwise the plant will not die, but the leaves are withered, the leaf color is dark, and lack of vitality. Yulu likes the environment with a certain air humidity, and when the air is dry, it can often spray water to the plant and its surrounding environment to increase the air humidity. In the growing season, the plant can also be protected by a transparent colorless beverage bottle with the upper half cut off. Make it grow in a small environment with moist air.

Turn the basin: because the roots of Yulu will secrete acidic substances, resulting in soil acidification, making the roots aging and hollow, the basin can be changed once a year in spring or autumn. If it is found that the growth of the plant is stagnant and the leaves are withered during the growing period, it is likely that the root system is damaged, and the root system should be rearranged in time. When turning the basin, cut off the aging and hollow roots, cut the excessively long roots short, retain the sturdy new white roots, and then plant them with new culture soil. Newly planted plants can be watered frequently, but less watered, so that the plants can resume growth as soon as possible.
