How to grow pearl bush

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: Pearl bush likes warmth. Specifically, between 22 and 30 degrees is the most suitable. It has a certain degree of cold resistance. Therefore, when raising fish in the south, there is generally no need to protect them from the cold. However, when raising it in the north, it is best to move it indoors in the winter. Better not to go below zero.

2. Light: Pearl bush is a plant that likes light, but it is also shade-tolerant. However, this does not mean that it can be placed in a dark place for a long time, as this will affect its flowering. In addition, strong light is not suitable for it. It is best to avoid strong light and have appropriate lighting.

3. Watering: Because pearl bush is afraid of waterlogging, it is best to add water in moderation. During its growth stage, just make sure the soil in the pot is not too dry. In winter, you need to control water and keep the soil slightly dry.

2. Reproduction: Reproduction by division is the most common method. It is best to do so in March or April, or during retrograde periods. Choose strong and vigorous mother plants. Each mother plant can be divided into five to seven parts and then planted separately. After planting, ensure the humidity is appropriate. After about a week, the plants will be able to acclimate to the environment.
