2. Temperature: like warm environment. Too high or too low temperature is not conducive to its growth. When the summer temperature is too high, you should pay attention to shade to prevent sunburn. When the winter temperature is lower than 5 degrees Celsius, attention should be paid to indoor heat preservation to prevent the plant from frostbite and death.

3. Watering: Hong Yanhui does not have high requirements for moisture, too much watering, it is easy to grow, the distance between leaves is lengthened, and the plant is not compact, which is not conducive to ornamental. Generally, watering is not dry, but watering is the principle of watering thoroughly, and you can keep the basin soil moist during the growing period. It should not be overwatered in high temperature in summer, otherwise it will cause the root system of the plant to rot. Winter in the indoor sunny environment for maintenance, the winter temperature is generally on the low side, at this time to strictly control the water, the temperature is below minus 5 degrees, do not water.

Matters needing attention

When the summer high temperature, the whole plant growth is slow or completely stopped, at this time to be well ventilated and properly shaded, avoid exposure, control watering, not long-term rain, so as to avoid plant rot. The reproduction of Honghuiyan is generally by chopping the head and breaking the cubs, and the cut plants can be directly inserted in the dry granular soil, and after they have roots, they can supply a small amount of water, so it is a very good breed.

Change the basin every early spring and add a mixture of rotten leaf soil, culture soil and coarse sand. Especially under the condition of low temperature in winter, the root is easy to rot and die if there is too much water. Summer high temperature will have dormancy, the bottom blade will fall, to reduce watering. Balcony cultivation must avoid showers such as branches growing or aging, can be cut short fertilization, renewal and rejuvenation.
