Whale flowers like fertile and loose soil. We can use humus soil, vermiculite and river sand mixed soil for planting, which not only ensures the drainage capacity of the soil, but also avoids the situation of stagnant water and rotten roots.

Light and temperature

Whale flowers like semi-cool environment, so when the temperature is not high, they can be cultivated in the sun for 4~5 hours a day. However, when the temperature is high in summer, attention should be paid to shading, because its cold resistance is not strong. The safe temperature in winter should be above 10℃.

moisture

Humid environment is conducive to the growth of whales, so water whales more, but be careful not to let water accumulate in the basin.

Fertilize soil or land

Whale flowers like fertilizer, and more fertilization can promote their growth, but it is not advisable to apply too much fertilizer at one time, and it is advisable to apply fertilizer every 15 days. Nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers are mainly used in spring and summer, and potassium fertilizers are mainly used in autumn, which enhances stress resistance and is conducive to wintering.

The above are the cultivation methods and precautions of whale flower. I hope it will help everyone. The flowering period of whale flowers is very long, from September to May of the following year, you can see enough at one time. Whale flowers are creeping, similar to chlorophytum, and can also be potted.
