Growth habit

Born in the mountainous area at an altitude of 300- 1000 meters. I like warm and sunny environment, and I am resistant to drought and cold, barren, waterlogging and shade. The requirements for soil are not strict, but it is suitable to cultivate in sandy soil with good drainage. ?

Light and temperature are important conditions that affect the formation of flower buds. Adequate sunshine is needed in the growing period. The more sunshine, the brighter the flowers will be. Leeward, sunny and dry environment is conducive to the formation and flowering of flower buds.

When the light is insufficient, only the long leaves will not bloom, which will affect the ornamental effect. The suitable growth temperature is 15-20℃, and the winter temperature is lower than-18℃, otherwise it will be frozen.
