cultivate

Change pots and add rich soil every spring. Swallow's paw grows fast. In order to keep the plant plump, it is not advisable to have too much fertilizer and water. 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.
