Yushu likes a warm, dry and sunny environment. Not cold-resistant, afraid of strong light, slightly resistant to shade.

The soil is fertile sandy loam with good drainage.

The temperature is not lower than 7℃ in winter.

Change pots and add rich soil every spring. Yushu grows fast, so it is not advisable to have too much fertilizer and water to keep the plants plump. Water 2-3 times a week during the growing period, and strictly control watering in hot and humid July-August. Poor ventilation or excessive water shortage in midsummer can also cause leaves to turn yellow and fall off, so they should be maintained in a semi-shady place. After autumn, watering gradually decreases. When cultivating outdoors, avoid heavy rain, or there will be too much water in the roots, which will easily lead to the death of rotten roots. When changing pots every year or putting houses in autumn, attention should be paid to shaping and pruning to make the plant shape more elegant.

Use potted plants. Before Yushu begins to grow in early spring, it should be planted or replaced with earthen pots. Potted soil should be loose, fertile and well drained. Generally, 2 parts of humus soil or peat soil, 2 parts of garden soil, 3 parts of coarse sand, 1 part of limestone gravel, or 3 parts of humus soil, garden soil, coarse sand, 1 part of mixed culture soil with bone powder and plant ash are selected as the basin soil. Pot soil should be disinfected before use. Disinfection method: one cubic meter of culture soil is sprayed with 400-? 500 ml formalin solution (containing 40% formaldehyde), mix the spoons, cover them with plastic film and seal them? 2-4 hours. Uncovering the film and airing for 3-4 days, and then using it after the liquid medicine volatilizes; The second is to steam the culture soil in a container and heat it for disinfection. When steaming, the culture soil needs to have a certain humidity, the heating temperature is 80℃, and it is steamed for 2 hours. Steam after 7 days 1 time. It can be used after drying. Before planting, put some broken tiles and bricks at the bottom of the basin for drainage, and cut off pests and diseases and rotten roots. Wait until the dry mouth is cut. Don't water it immediately after planting, shade it or put it in a cool place. After 4-5 days, water it 1 time, and gradually increase the light. When the root system in the basin soil is full and the drainage air permeability is poor, it is necessary to change the soil, and if possible, it is best to change the basin soil 1 time a year.

During the growth period of Yushu, water should be poured 1 time every 2-3 days, but the basin soil should not be too wet, let alone accumulate water. When the weather is hot in summer, we should strictly control watering and strengthen ventilation, otherwise it will easily cause leaves to fall. Water should be reduced in winter, and the soil in the basin should be slightly dry. Top dressing should be applied during the growth period, generally 2 ~ 3 times a month, and liquid fertilizer of decomposed pancakes should be applied. Sufficient base fertilizer should be applied before soil replacement or planting, and decomposed organic fertilizers such as chicken manure, pigeon manure, bone meal, manure and various cake fertilizers can be added to the cultivated soil as base fertilizer. In order to keep the plant plump, the fertilizer and water should not be too large to avoid excessive growth.
