How to care for white butterflies

White butterflies adapt to light

White butterflies can quickly adapt to the surrounding growth conditions, such as light. Under bright light, the leaves of white butterflies are more developed and lighter in color; in a difficult environment, the leaves will become smaller and the color will become darker.

If the white butterfly is placed in a low light environment, it will result in an ugly plant shape and smaller leaves. The soil for breeding white butterflies should be fertile, loose sandy loam. Moreover, white butterflies are more suitable for soilless cultivation.

White Butterfly Water Requirements

The white butterfly has high requirements for water. The principle of watering throughout the year should be to keep the soil in the pot moist, and the humidity of the surrounding environment should also be maintained. This is conducive to the growth of the plant and can make the leaves of the plant become bright, green and vibrant. The growth of white butterflies cannot be separated from higher air humidity. In the hot summer, water should be sprayed on the leaves 2-3 times.

Fertilization of white butterflies

White butterflies should be fertilized once every six months during their growing season. If the white butterflies are kept indoors, less fertilizer is needed. Fertilize once from May to September. During the growth period of the spider, fertilize 2-3 times a month. When fertilizing in northern regions, avoid using weakly alkaline fertilizers.

White Butterfly Plastic Surgery

The white butterfly potted plant needs to be shaped, and a 10-15cm flowerpot is more appropriate. The plants grow rapidly in summer and need to be pinched and shaped. When growing in hanging pots, if the plants are too dense for a long time, they need to be thinned out and shaped to keep them beautiful and elegant.

Adult plants need to be repotted and re-pruned in the spring of the following year. When caring for the plant in winter, be careful not to make the soil in the pot too wet. Otherwise, low temperature and humidity will cause root rot and yellowing of leaves, seriously affecting its normal ornamental value.
