Ground Melon is a unique medicinal herb in China, which has many interesting aliases such as Nvqing, Shanjiao, Yangbunai fruit, and Mamani. It is widely distributed in China, including the Northeast, North China, and Northwest regions. Let's learn about the growth environment and distribution of Ground Melon below.

I. Growth Habit
Firstly, Ground Melon has strong drought tolerance and requires very little water to sustain its life activities. However, sunlight has a good promoting effect on the survival and development of Ground Melon.
In addition, suitable soil is of great significance for the growth of Ground Melon, which we will discuss in detail later.
Furthermore, Ground Melon does not require excessively high temperatures. Adjusting the temperature to 20°C - 28°C can meet its growth needs.
II. Factors Management
1. Water
In terms of distribution, Ground Melon is mainly found in many northern provinces of China, where water resources are relatively scarce. It can grow in relatively water-deficient environments, indicating its strong drought tolerance.

Therefore, besides needing some water during the vigorous growth period, there is generally no need to consider water too much during other times.
2. Sunlight
As we all know, the northwest region of China has little precipitation, so the duration of sunshine is relatively long, providing abundant sunlight for plants. Therefore, what we need to do is not to shade the plants too much and let Ground Melon enjoy the sunlight better.
3. Soil
The main suitable soil for this plant is sandy or gravelly soil. Ground Melon mainly grows in dry valleys, sand dunes, and other places, precisely because the soil in these places is often sandy or gravelly.
