Therefore, when placed in indoor maintenance, attention should be paid to ventilation and cooling in summer, and the room temperature should be kept above 10 ℃ in winter, and the lowest should not be less than 5 ℃.

2. The light should be moderate: ivy is light-loving and shade-tolerant. When cultured under semi-light conditions, the internodes are shorter, the leaf shape is consistent, and the leaf color is bright, so it is appropriate to culture in bright indoor light. If you can put outdoor shade for a period of time in spring and autumn, so that you can see more sunshine in the morning and evening, then the vitality will be exuberant and the leaves will be green. However, we should pay attention to prevent the direct light, otherwise it is easy to cause sunburn.

The room temperature is low in winter, especially to control watering and keep the basin soil slightly wet. The northern winter climate is dry, it is best to spray Duchuan once a week with water close to room temperature, in order to maintain air humidity, the plant appears alive, the leaf color is green and shiny.

Fertilization should be reasonable: when ivy is cultivated at home, the basin soil should be composed of Sichuan rotten leaves or charcoal soil mixed with river sand and a small amount of bone powder, and thin pancake fertilizer and water should be applied once every two or three weeks in the growing season. Do not apply fertilizer in summer and winter. Do not apply nitrogen fertilizer when fertilizing, otherwise, the patterns and patches on the leaves of mosaic varieties will fade to green. The ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium should be 1% and 1%. During the peak growing season, the leaves are sprayed with 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate once or twice, which will make the leaves look more beautiful. However, attention should be paid to avoid contaminating the leaves when applying liquid fertilizer, so as not to cause the leaves to scorch.

5, pruning should be timely: when the seedlings grow to a certain height, they should pay attention to pick the heart in time to promote its multi-branching, and the plant shape will appear plump.

6. Potted plants should set up pillars: in order to make them grow upward, add infinite interest to the beautification of the bedroom space, or make a hanging basin cultivation, the soft branches and vines naturally droop and float, chic to the extreme, and blend into the pleasant enjoyment of evergreen throughout the four seasons.
