The characteristics of the black mage how to distinguish the black mage

Master Chu is a succulent plant of the genus Euphorbia crassulaceae. Black Master is a cultivated variety with beautiful and special leaves. Next, let's learn about this plant.

The original lotus palm of the black mage is produced in the Canary Islands, and the black mage is a cultivated variety of lotus palm. The rosette leaf disc is integrated at the top of the stem and branch. the leaf disc is up to 20 meters in diameter, the leaf is black and purple, it turns green when the light is dim, the leaf tip has a small tip, and the leaf margin has ciliate cilia. The flowers are grouped into large racemes, the florets are yellow, and the plants usually die after flowering. Black Master likes warm, dry and sunny environment, drought-resistant, not cold-resistant, slightly resistant to semi-shade, can be planted with fertile and well-drained and breathable culture soil, grows in cold season, and dormancy in summer is not long.

Black mages are like wizards in World of Warcraft, with elegant posture and the flavor of Gandalf, so they are very popular with succulent lovers. Although they are accustomed to being called black wizards, in fact there are several different kinds of "mages". They have subtle differences in leaf shape, and they are also several varieties that we are often easy to mix up or do not specifically identify, and florists will never carefully distinguish them. It is not easy to distinguish them alone, but it is easy to compare them together.

(round leaf) Master Black: the leaf is wide and short, and the leaf shape is round. The leaf surface is very flat, the overall color is warm and the color is slightly lighter.

(sharp leaf) the black mage: the leaf is longer, the shape of the leaf is square, and the whole is like a sharp sword. The midline is slightly concave and the edge of the leaf is warped on both sides. The color is cool, slightly purple and dark.

Master Mo: the obvious feature is that the leaf shape is slender, narrow and long. The leaves are flat. Among these varieties, the color is the darkest.

Black Dharma Master Jin: this should be the spotted brocade variety of the round leaf black mage. This is easy to distinguish, so let's not talk about the details. The leaf shape is the same as that of the round leaf black mage.

The original species of the black mage: this is also easy to distinguish, the color is green. There is a red wheel on the edge and a faint red midline on the back of the leaf. But it's supposed to be in bright light.

The growth habits and key points of maintenance of the Black Master

Black Master likes warm, dry and sunny environment, drought-resistant, not cold-resistant, slightly resistant to semi-shade, and can be planted with fertile, well-drained and breathable soil. In the spring and autumn growth season, the growth of the black master is quite gratifying, and the relative demand for water is also relatively large, especially for some old piles, if it is found that the leaves become soft, it is an obvious phenomenon of water shortage, and water should be replenished as soon as possible. It can withstand the low temperature of 5 ℃ in winter, which is lower than 5 ℃, and it is easy to have the phenomenon of leaf warming and fallen leaves.

The dormancy of the black mage is obvious in summer, and the main state: the leaves fall and the leaves curl into roses, especially the varieties of the black mage, the brocade of the black mage, and the original species of the black mage. Dormancy is very obvious at high temperatures in summer, and this state basically lasts until autumn.

Hot and humid summer is the enemy of the black mage, the first important thing is ventilation, the second is to start to reduce the number of watering, the third is to move to a bright location where the sun is not direct (indoor is not recommended, ventilation is not good! ). The main situation in which the black mage is not good is that the leaves are dry, starting from the bottom, and have been withered all the time, because the root system is poor due to high temperature and humidity. The high temperature was originally the dormant period of the black mage, but the humidity prompted her to grow, forced to grow in the uncomfortable growth season, and ended up dying. Although it is not so easy to hang up, don't take this risk.
