My mother got this at New Years along with a small bamboo and poinsettia.
So far I treat it like the poinsettia - water every 3-4 days in drips, coating the leaves and flowers till the drips start coming out from the bottom of the pot.
But I’m wondering how do these plants gain nutrients? The soil stays the same? And do I remove the dead/dying leaves and stuff or let them be in the pot?
Plus for the bamboo I just change their water every week or so? Is that okay?
These are my first plants and I did not expect them in any way - my mother just bought them on an impulse and now I’m trying to take care of them lol. I’m sure if I tell her I don’t want to she’ll say okay and do it herself but I kinda find watering them relaxing and enjoyable.
Any help is appreciated.
This one is sunshine, the poinsettia is seashell (cuz it had bluish leaves at first which I later realised are just paint -_-) and the bamboo is bambi. I’m kinda proud that they lasted two weeks and now wanna do whatever I can to keep them alive.
