Summer is the viewing period of the flower leaf taro. After the viewing period, it enters autumn and winter, and winter is the dormancy period of the flower leaf taro

Nursing methods of flower leaf taro after autumn

Generally, the leaves of taro will turn yellow from October, and the petiole will wilt and droop. At this time, it is necessary to control the watering. When all the leaves of the flower leaf taro wither, take it out of the flowerpot and put it in a dry place with good indoor light for a few days, and then store it in sand. The sand must be disinfected first

The temperature of taro sand should be kept above 10 ℃, and water should be sprayed every half a month, but it should not be too wet. The sand surface can be slightly wet. It should be noted that when digging the tubers of taro, do not hurt the tubers of taro, otherwise the tubers of taro will rot during storage in winter

In the spring of the second year, take out the stem blocks of taro and cut them into several pieces for planting. The cut stem block can be treated first to prevent it from rotting, and the cut can be smeared with plant ash

When planting, you can choose rotten leaf soil, add some bone powder as base fertilizer, plant tubers well, then pour enough water and keep them in a dark place. After the emergence of flower leaf taro, it can be placed in a semi shady place for maintenance. Attention should be paid to maintaining a certain air humidity

In addition, when planting tubers, you can choose to put the tubers face up to germinate faster, but the growth effect is not good. You can also plant the tuber back of the flower leaf taro upward, and the growth will be more orderly
