How to raise Ardisias

1. Breeding methods

1. Flower soil: Ardisia ciliata is suitable for growing in a substrate with a relatively high humus content and good air permeability. Therefore, when caring for it, it is recommended to use a mixture of leaf mold, peat soil and river sand to make its flower soil.

2. Sunlight: It is suitable for growing in a well-lit location and cannot grow in the dark for a long time, otherwise it will grow poorly. So when caring for it, you should place it in a brighter place, but be careful not to expose it to direct sunlight.

3. Watering: It likes relatively moist soil so that it can absorb enough water for growth. Therefore, when raising it, pay attention to watering it frequently to keep its soil in a moist state.

4. Fertilization: During the growing season, a thin layer of fertilizer should be applied once a month. Choose liquid fertilizer, which is more conducive to its absorption of nutrients. After it blooms, apply 1-2 times more fertilizer with high phosphorus and potassium content to help it bear fruit.

2. Precautions

1. In order to allow it to grow better, the soil should be loosened once every year. If it is a potted plant, it is best to change the soil once.

2. Usually keep it in a well-ventilated place, so that it can grow stronger and reduce the probability of it getting insects.
