How to maintain the blue snow flower pot?

1. Soil

Blue snowflakes should grow on sandy loam soil rich in humus and smooth drainage. You can use rotten leaves or garden soil mixed with some coarse sand to make a mix of soil, such a soil is a good base soil.

Blue snowflakes prefer places with the sun, so it is best to have about 6 hours of sun every day, but the sun is strong in summer, so pay attention to this to prevent blue snowflakes from getting sunburned. The optimum growth temperature was 17 ℃-26 ℃, and the highest tolerance was 35 ℃. Strong light and higher temperature are favorable for branching.

The growth of blue snowflakes requires a moist environment, and drying is disadvantageous to its growth. Generally in its growing period, that is, from April to November, it is necessary to ensure the wetness of the basin soil, but there can be no stagnant water. In winter, the growth of blue snowflakes is slow, so it is necessary to control watering to ensure that the basin is slightly wet; the watering frequency depends on the weather season and the environment in which it is maintained.

Blue snowflakes need a lot of nutrients during the growing period, so they are usually fertilized every half a month. When the flowers sprout, give priority to nitrogen fertilizer, and then add some phosphorus and potassium fertilizer properly after May, so that the blue snowflakes will bloom more luxuriantly.

There are few diseases and insect pests in the process of blue snowflake planting, but there are still occasional mites, so it is OK to spray some acaricides.
