Ecological habits of Tia and matters needing attention in culture

Tia is nicknamed "Green Flame" because its shape is similar to that of a burning green flame, hence its name. Although Tia is a foreign beauty, she is so adaptable that she can easily feed even at home.

First, Tia's introduction

Tia, also known as Green Yan, is a hybrid of crassulaceae and Euphorbia. The plant is a perennial succulent herb, the plant height can reach 20cm, it is easy to group from the bottom of the stem, forming a multi-branch structure, the plant can grow to about 10 cm, the bottom of the new branch has leaves, and slowly the leaves will gradually fall off to form the old stump, and the old stem is easy to grow air root. The fleshy leaves of Tia are arranged in the shape of a lotus flower, which is very beautiful, the short tip of the leaf is Obovate wedge-shaped, the back of the leaf is keeled (the center of the back is raised) and the edge is very short hard burr, and the leaf is green in summer or when the light is insufficient. But in the autumn and winter season with great temperature difference, the light is sufficient, the leaf edge will show beautiful red, the plant blossoms in Cymes, and the florets are white bell-shaped. A number of flower bones gather on the pedicel to open in turn, fresh and elegant.

Tia's floral words: thank you.

Second, the growth habits of Tia

Tia's ecological habits Tia likes a warm, dry and sunny environment, drought-resistant, not cold-resistant, but slightly resistant to semi-shade. Tia succulent plants like warm, dry, ventilated and sunny environment, drought, cold and shade tolerance, strong adaptability, but not resistant to intense sun exposure. Generally, there is no obvious dormancy period. Tia has a short dormancy period at high temperature in summer, when the plant growth is slow or completely stagnant, which can be maintained in a well-ventilated place to avoid long-term rain, and slightly shaded to control watering. Spring, autumn and early summer are the main growth periods of the plant. The basin soil should be dry and irrigated thoroughly, and it is easy to wither the old leaves during the growing period (except during the dormant period). Tia is better to maintain as a whole, give it full light at ordinary times, water dry and thoroughly, and properly shade and control water in summer, but do not overshadow it. Generally speaking, it is not difficult to spend the summer, but the leaves turn green and can not be avoided. Avoid exposure or lack of light, resulting in its broken phase. After summer, autumn and winter can still be beautiful back. As a matter of fact, the green Tia is very interesting as long as the plant type is dignified.

III. Breeding and nursing of Tia

Tia, succulent plants like warm, dry, ventilated and sunny environment, drought, cold and shade tolerance, strong adaptability, but not resistant to intense sun exposure. Generally, there is no obvious dormancy period. Growth period can be fully watered, summer high temperature should pay attention to shading, and a small amount of watering, at the same time, strengthening ventilation is also essential. Be sure to give full light to the plant, lack of light is easy to grow, the leaves become loose and thin. Move into the sunny place to maintain in winter. The key point of the medium is loose, good drainage performance, more fertile, it is suggested that an appropriate amount of bone powder should be added to the pelvic floor as base fertilizer.

Spring, autumn and early summer are the main growing periods of Tia succulent plants. The basin soil should be dry and irrigated thoroughly, and it is easy to wither the old leaves if it is too dry during the growing period. In winter, if the lowest temperature is not less than 5 ℃, it can be watered normally so that the plant can continue to grow. if it can not maintain such a high temperature, it is necessary to slowly control watering and make the plant dormant gradually. When the basin soil is dry, it can withstand the indoor low temperature of minus 3 degrees.

The soil of Tia succulent plant culture can be breathable. Tia is more adaptable to the soil and is not easy to get sick, so be careful not to provoke aphids when flowering. Cinder mixed peat, mainly breathable, there is no specific proportion, the basin surface is covered with granular river sand, beautiful and breathable.
