The method of cultivating the money tree is as follows:

1. The sunshine should be appropriate

The money tree should be cultivated indoors in a sunny place, and attention should be paid to the placement. The leaves should face the sun and should not be shaded for a long time, otherwise the branches and leaves will become distorted. It is best to spray water on the leaves of the fortune tree every 3 to 5 days, which can not only facilitate photosynthesis, but also make the branches and leaves more beautiful.

2. Water appropriately

The first principle of watering the money tree is to rather wet it than dry it. Water more during the high temperature season in summer and less in winter; more during the vigorous growth period. Water, small and newly planted plants should be watered less. Under normal circumstances, watering once every 15 to 20 days is enough.

3. Fertilization

The money tree requires more fertilizer than other flowers and trees. When changing pots, the proportion of fertilizer soil can be one-third. Fertilizer soil includes humus fallen leaves, mixed bone powder, bean cake residue mixture, etc. These fertilizer soils are highly effective and convenient to obtain. It is worth noting that during the growth period of the money tree (that is, from May to September), decomposed liquid fertilizer or flower fertilizer should be applied every 15 days to make its roots deep and luxuriant.

Propagation method

1. Sowing method

Because seed propagation has the characteristics of uniform emergence, straight roots and smooth seedlings, easy to braid and easy to grow round and lovely "radish" "head" and other characteristics, so sowing propagation is a commonly used propagation method. The seeds mature in autumn and should be sown as soon as they are picked. The fruit can be harvested when its outer skin is yellow or dry.

2. Cutting method

Compared with sowing seedlings, cutting seedlings have the disadvantages that the head stem is not enlarged or only slightly enlarged, and the stem of the seedling is not beautiful, so this method is rarely used. Cutting propagation is generally carried out in the south from March to October. The survival rate is higher. Choose strong, disease-free and insect-free plants as cuttings. The cuttings are 10-12 cm long. Remove the lower leaves and cut off half of the large leaves. At the same time, cut the cuttings diagonally. , to expand the root area of ??the cuttings.
