What kind of soil should be used?

Its roots are fleshy and should use soil with good permeability, and it is a flower from the south and likes acidic soil and water, so it is best to mix coarse sand and gravel, garden soil and rotten leaves, and pay attention to the maintenance of water, fertilizer, light and temperature. It must be able to grow very well. If it is in the north, there are more alkaline soil, when preparing the soil, you can add some sulfuric acid powder to help it increase the acidity.

II. Maintenance of flower soil

If in the north, because the water is alkaline and is often used, the soil will be alkalized, so it is best to use Rain Water or add some ferrous sulfate to the water, but because Rain Water and snow are not easy to store, so tap water can be used usually, and ferrous sulfate is usually given to it regularly for about ten days, which can help it avoid yellowing disease.

When to change the soil

Changing its soil is the same as pruning it every two years, and each time you change it, you have to use a larger basin than before. It can be done when it comes out of the shed in the spring. After disinfecting the new flowerpot, spread some broken tiles at the bottom of the pot as a drainage layer, then spread about three centimeters of soil on it, put some horseshoe pieces as base fertilizer, and then spread a layer of soil to remove the tree from the original pot, remove the dead and old roots, plant it in and hold the soil tight, and then pour it thoroughly.

Its sprouting ability is relatively low, so its branches are generally not pruned, but it is very necessary to remove branches that have withered or eroded by diseases and insects. It is also important to remove some leaves moderately after the bud is formed, which can make the flowers grow bigger and take longer.
