I believe that in the homes of many flower lovers with common sense of traditional Chinese medicine, several spiritual herbs for fighting colds must be planted. Among them, "Stenoloma chusanum" is everyone's favorite. In traditional Chinese medicine, it can be used as medicine for the whole body and has the effects of treating colds, fevers, hepatitis, bloody stools and other conditions. Its appearance mostly has lanceolate or ovate-lanceolate leaves on the blade, and it can be considered evergreen all year round. Therefore, putting it at home can also add a touch of greenery and vitality to the home environment.
The perennial herb Stenoloma chusanum is favored. In addition to its medicinal value, it can also purify the air. Growing it can achieve several things at once. In the flower market, it is mainly planted in pots. Its daily light demand likes a scattered light environment and slow heat light. At noon in summer, it needs to be moved away from direct sunlight, otherwise the leaves will be sunburned and turn yellow and dry.
In terms of daily necessary actions of watering, Stenoloma chusanum likes moist soil. Therefore, in summer or during the growing season, it is necessary to follow the state of the potting soil. Sometimes it needs to be watered twice a day. In other winter times, the watering frequency can be reduced to about once every three days. In addition, be careful not to water on the leaves during watering to avoid causing diseases. At the same time, if there is water accumulation at the bottom of the pot after watering, it should be turned over in time to prevent root rot.
The temperature of Stenoloma chusanum's living environment needs to be controlled between 15°C and 25°C. In extremely high or low temperature environments, the plant will stop growing. In daily maintenance, it is recommended to choose soil mixed in a certain proportion of leaf mold soil, peat soil and garden soil. Because similar organic soil has good drainage and air permeability, it can be of great help to the growth of plants.
Finally, regarding fertilization, plants, like humans, cannot do without fixed nutrients. If only water is applied for a long time, the plant's condition will decline year by year. Therefore, it is recommended to apply diluted liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season to promote the healthy growth of plants. No fertilization is needed in non-growing seasons.
By following the above maintenance guidelines, you can successfully maintain Stenoloma chusanum at home and enjoy the greenery and beauty it brings.
