Scientific name: *Reinwardtia trigyna*
Common names: gold parrot, yellow linen
Family: Linaceae
Origin:
This plant is native to southwest China, Vietnam, India, and Indonesia. It is widely cultivated in the southern regions, especially in warm and temperate climates.
Growth Habits:
*Reinwardtia trigyna* thrives in sunny, well-ventilated, and warm environments. It prefers fertile, well-drained soil and grows best in low-altitude calcareous soils that are not too cold.
Morphological Characteristics:
The plant can grow up to 1 meter tall, with green stems. The leaves are alternate, elliptic or obovate-elliptic, measuring 2 to 6 cm in length. They may be entire or slightly toothed. The flowers are yellow, about 2.5 cm in diameter, and appear singly or in clusters. The fruit is a spherical follicle, and both flowers and fruits develop during the summer.
Humidity Management:
This species prefers a humid or semi-dry climate. The ideal relative air humidity is between 50% and 70%. If the air becomes too dry, the lower leaves may turn yellow and fall off, while the upper leaves may lose their luster.
Temperature Management:
Being a subtropical plant, it requires consistent warmth. Growth slows down when temperatures drop below 8°C, and it may stop growing entirely in colder conditions. In winter, it should be protected from frost.
Light Management:
*Reinwardtia trigyna* is adaptable to different light conditions. When kept indoors, place it in bright, well-lit areas such as living rooms, bedrooms, or studies. After a month of indoor growth, it can be moved outdoors to a partially shaded area (with protection during winter). This helps maintain its health and appearance.
Fertilizer Management:
For potted plants, it's beneficial to add organic fertilizer to the soil. During regular maintenance, proper watering combined with balanced fertilization will promote healthy growth.
Propagation:
The most common method of propagation is through seeds. Sowing in spring typically yields the best results.
Uses:
This plant is often used in artificial wall linings, protective ridges, and stepped lime joints, where it grows well. It’s ideal for rock gardens and vertical wall gaps, making it an excellent choice for three-dimensional greening. It can also be grown in pots, adding a touch of greenery to any space.
Medicinal Use:
The leaves have medicinal properties, including anti-inflammatory, detoxifying, and heat-clearing effects. They are sometimes used to promote diuresis and reduce internal heat.
