The method of maintenance of flowing spring maple
"Flowing spring maple" is a very popular indoor foliage plant, which is loved because of the special color and shape of its leaves. The following are the maintenance methods and precautions:
Irrigation: Fountain maples need to keep the soil moist, but not overwater. The best way to do this is to wait until the soil surface has dried out before watering to avoid water build-up and root rot. In the hot summer months, it may be necessary to water once a week, while in the winter it is possible to reduce the frequency of watering.
Light: Flowing spring maple prefers bright light, but does not like direct exposure to sunlight. It is best to place it in a well-lit place indoors, such as by a window. If the light is insufficient, artificial light sources such as fluorescent lamps can be used.
Temperature: Flowing spring maple prefers a warm environment, and the most suitable temperature range is 18-24 degrees Celsius. In winter, do not leave it by a window or where the cold wind blows.
Soil: Flowing spring maples prefer nutrient-rich soils, and the best choice is a mixture of saprophyll soil and perlite. Changing the soil regularly can help keep the plant healthy.
Pruning: Flowing spring maples grow quickly and require regular pruning to maintain their shape and size. Use clean scissors when pruning to avoid germs.
Notes:
Avoid excessive watering so that the roots do not rot.
Do not expose fountain maples to direct sunlight.
Avoid placing it where the cold wind blows or by windows.
Clean the leaves regularly to prevent dust and pests.
If you find that the leaves begin to turn yellow or brown, it may be because there are not enough nutrients in the soil or too much watering, and the maintenance method needs to be adjusted.
