How to raise a star maiden

1. Breeding environment

1. Soil: When growing Star Maiden, try to use loose and breathable soil. If the soil is not breathable, it will easily cause root rot.

2. Watering: Ensure sufficient water during the growth period, but avoid waterlogging. It is very drought-resistant, so wait until the soil in the pot is dry before watering, otherwise the roots will easily rot.

3. Light: Give it sufficient light. It cannot accept strong light, especially long-term exposure to the sun in summer, which will burn it. Appropriate shade should be provided in summer.

4. Temperature: It is best to provide it with a growth environment of 20-32℃. If the temperature is higher than 35℃, cooling measures should be taken.

2. Breeding Methods

1. Leaf cutting propagation: Cut off the strong and full leaves, dry them for 1-2 days, and then lay them flat on sand or vermiculite. Make sure the base of the leaves and the medium are combined, and keep it moist enough to avoid water accumulation. It will take about 20 days for the plant to take root and sprout.

2. Stem cutting propagation: Cut off a strong stem segment with two pairs of leaves and place it in a ventilated place to dry. In order to avoid root rot, wait until the wound is dry and then insert it into the culture soil. Make sure the soil is slightly moist for rooting.
