How to grow the Mentia yew

1. Lighting

When it is young, we cannot give it too strong light, so it is better to let it grow in scattered sunlight. If it is in the summer when the sun is particularly strong, we need to put it in a cooler place so that its leaves and other parts will not be burned, the leaves will not turn yellow, and it will not stop growing or even die due to too much sunlight.

But this does not mean that we can always let it grow in a very dark place. In fact, the best way is to put it in a place with appropriate light.

2. Ventilation

It is necessary to provide it with certain ventilation conditions, because the lack of this condition is likely to cause its leaves to curl up and become dry. In addition, we must pay attention to one thing in winter, that is, we must not place it facing the air conditioner or near the heater, otherwise its leaves will lose a lot of water and the leaves will still dry and curl.

3. Watering

Watering is very important for it, but we need to be careful not to water it too much, otherwise its roots will be affected, then rot, and finally the whole plant will die. We have to wait until the soil is dry before watering. Every time you water, you can look at the bottom hole and stop when water flows out from the bottom of the pot.

4. Overwintering

Overwintering is also a key link. Because it is relatively cold-resistant, we don’t have to worry too much. We just need to place it in a sheltered and sunny place. In winter, we must control the amount of watering because it is very likely to freeze.
