Ruscus grows very slowly, easily adapts to any living conditions and can survive even with irregular watering.
However, in order to get a beautiful, decorative bush, and even more so flowers and berries, you will have to try and create optimal conditions for it.
How to make a plant grow faster
The answer is simple: phytohormones and humic acids are important.
Green pets themselves are capable of producing phytohormones, but in small quantities, so additional drugs are needed to accelerate growth.
There are stimulants of synthetic and natural origin.
How to care
Caring for such a plant is quite simple.
Remember that intensive growth and development of ruscus occurs exclusively in spring.
At this time, fully formed young shoots begin to grow.
And what size they will be depends on fertilizing, as well as watering.
This plant must be handled very carefully. The fact is that if the shoots are damaged, the young ones will only be able to grow back with the onset of the next spring.
How to water
During the active growth of young shoots, the plant needs systematic watering.
After growth stops, it will be able to tolerate a lack of watering.
Top dressing
Feeding is carried out during active growth once every 3 or 4 weeks.
To do this, use a complete complex fertilizer.
In winter, the plant has a dormant period, and you cannot feed it at this time.
