Description of the features of growing a plant
As for the light regime, you will need to keep the plant either in partial shade or in the shade. In the summer, the plant will need to provide abundant watering, and the air humidity should be high. The life form of palm dwarf is an evergreen shrub. It is noteworthy that this plant is poisonous, and its juice can irritate the skin. It is recommended to grow this plant not only in apartments and offices, but also in general premises, in conservatories and in warm greenhouses.
In the dwarf culture, the palm tree can even reach a height of two meters. In general, the height of this plant will fluctuate between twenty centimeters and two meters. However, if you grow this plant either in a winter garden or in a warm greenhouse, then the leaf rosette can even reach more than three and a half meters in height.
It is important to remember that the root system of this plant is quite powerful, and the plant itself grows quite quickly. For this reason, you will need to pick up tall, but not too wide pots. When performing transplants, it is important to make the substrate heavier, and also very significantly increase the proportion of either sod land or reduce the amount of sand. when transplanting, it is important to preserve the root ball. It is recommended to transfer young plants once a year or two, and adults will need such a procedure once every three years. In the case when the top layer of the substrate is renewed annually by about ten to fifteen centimeters, then the palm dwarf can be transplanted only once every about five to six years.
For growing a plant, it is recommended to pick up the following soil soil: one part of sod land and one part of a stove, as well as two parts of leafy land. However, it is perfectly acceptable to use ordinary soil intended for palm trees. The acidity of the soil can be either neutral or slightly acidic.
It is important to remember that in the case of direct exposure to direct sunlight, the leaves of the palm dwarf may turn yellow. Also, such changes can occur with leaves even when the temperature regime changes both downward and upward. In the case of excessive waterlogging of the soil, as well as when watering with cold or hard water, the roots of this plant can rot, and the leaves can begin to blacken around the edges and even die off. It is noteworthy that the plant is quite often capable of being damaged by both spider mites and mealybugs, and even thrips.
Throughout the rest period, you will need to maintain a temperature of about sixteen to eighteen degrees. Watering should be provided to the plant in moderation, and the air humidity should remain medium. In the event that you grow this plant at home, then the dormant period will be forced and will last from October to February. Such a dormant period occurs due to low air humidity and a low degree of illumination.
In indoor conditions, the reproduction of palm dwarfs occurs in a vegetative way: with the help of root suckers. This method of reproduction will be simpler. However, on an industrial scale, such propagation is recommended using seeds.
