How to breed Brazilian dragon bone

The Brazilian keel is also called the dragon bone column. It is generally blue-green, and its leaves are like fish scales. They sparkle spectacularly under the sun. The most special thing is that the Brazilian keel sometimes blooms and bears fruits in summer. It is a small round blue-purple berry that can be both ornamental and edible. The Brazilian keel is drought-resistant and cold-shy, so it is suitable to be planted in dry soil. Let's take a look at its cultivation method.

How to breed Brazilian dragon bone

1. The management of Brazilian dragon bone is extensive and the requirements for soil are not strict, but sandy soil with low viscosity and strong drainage performance is also selected to facilitate root breathing and nutrient absorption.

2. Pay attention to watering at ordinary times. Wait until the soil is slightly dry before watering. Do not water too much, otherwise it will easily cause root rot.

3. The Brazilian dragon bone likes sunlight, so try to put it in a sunny place. In the summer noon, it should be placed in a cool place. At other times, try to put it in a sunny place.

4. Brazilian dragon bones do not require high fertilizers. When just planting, you should first apply the base fertilizer, so that you don’t need to maintain it in the future. When repotting in spring, you should also apply some corrosive organic fertilizers in moderation, but don’t add too much, otherwise it will burn the roots.

5. Pay attention to pruning at ordinary times. Cutting off excess branches is beneficial to the appearance. The cut mature branches can be grafted onto other plants after drying. Also pay attention to spraying pesticides to avoid the production of red spider pests. You can choose 1000 to 2000 times of omethoate.
