Limonium Alias
Salt cloud grass, salt cloud ginseng, spoon leaf grass
Distribution of origin
The blood enriching grassland is produced in Russia, Bulgaria and Caucasus. It is mainly distributed on hillsides and meadow salt soils in Northeast
morphological characteristics
Herbs perennial, 15-60 cm tall, entire plant (except calyx) glabrous
Basal leaves, pale green or gray green, obovate oblong, oblong lanceolate to lanceolate, 4-12 cm long , 0.4-2.5 cm wide, apex usually obtuse or acute, tapering into petiole is flat, the majority, arranged in a rosette. Many rachides upper branches; flowers in the synthesis of short and dense spike, set was born in rachis branch top, spikelet stem leaves reduced to scales, brown, white membranous margin.
Blood growth habit
Limonium love cool climate, love light, after low temperature treatment at low temperature on flowering, 10-16 C in the seedling stage of flowering plants were treated with low temperature, high temperature will not affect the day after; if the seedlings without cold treatment, direct planting under high temperature, flowering was inhibited or will no flower.

How to Grow Fiddle Leaf Fig TreePropagation
Propagation is usually done from cuttings in the spring. Growing fiddle leaf fig from cuttings is easy, if not available, you can buy a potted plant from nursery and multiply it.
Location

When growing fiddle leaf fig, remember that it prefers moist, humid air. Homes are rather dry, so alternatively you can mist the plant often to increase the humidity level.
Requirements for Growing Fiddle Leaf Fig IndoorsSoil
Soil is an essential ingredient in the growth of healthy plant. Loose, well drained soil that is rich in nutrients and organic matter is required.

Fiddle leaf fig care is easy, it involves several requirements and steps, which are explained below.
Fertilization
Fertilize about once a month with a water soluble houseplant fertilizer. Avoid fertilizing when it is not in active growth, usually in winter.
Repotting
In every 2-3 years repot the plant or whenever you find that it is root bound, providing a container slightly larger than the previous one.
Cleaning
Cleaning the leaves is an important fiddle leaf plant care step. Its large feathery foliage becomes dusty quite often.
Pruning
Prune your plant to control its size and remove dead and diseased branches, if necessary. Regular pinching of the top of stem once it has reached the desired height prevents the plant from getting lanky and encourages branching.
Pests, Diseases and ProblemsPests
If leaves that have small dark or white diffused patches: this is the sign of the presence of pests, which if not eradicated can damage the plant or lead it to death. The most common pests are mites and cochineal.
It is therefore important to counter them as early as possible as stop the invasion. For evergreens, such as ficus lyrata, attention should always be kept, more in the summer period, when the high temperature and humidity together promote the ideal climate for the development of pests, particularly under the inner leaves, where air circulation is less.
Diseases and Problems
Plant suffers from root rot if grown in waterlogged soil. Ensuring proper drainage and avoiding overwatering prevent this. Whereas, a bad appearance of the foliage or falling leaves are the most obvious symptoms of a few mistakes in the cultivation: Either the plant is exposed to cold drafts or temperature that is too rigid, watering is insufficient or conversely, too abundant. In any case, if treated in time the plant will recover from the damage.
