In the middle of blooming, the jasmine dries up, leaves or branches wither. That's the reason.

Summer is the peak season for jasmine blossoms, but many flower friends say that their jasmine flowers originally have many buds, but for some reason the buds wither and wither when they are halfway open, and then the leaves around them wilt and wither. What's the reason? Today, let's analyze it in detail.

1. Too much or too little watering. Jasmine is a water-loving plant, but there is no rigid regulation on the watering time. Generally speaking, we recommend watering jasmine according to the principle of seeing dry and wet. If the pot soil cannot dry for a long time during the bud, the respiration of the jasmine root system will be blocked, and the water can not be transferred to the bud or branches normally. As a result, the roots rot or the bud cannot open normally, and the branches and leaves will wither and fall off.

The temperature is high in summer, if your jasmine is raised in the sun, be sure to observe the dry and wet soil in time. If the basin soil is thoroughly dry and does not replenish water in time, it will soon cause the bud to fail to open normally or drop the bud due to lack of water. Jasmine is a woody plant, the branches and leaves themselves store less water, coupled with the strong summer sun, the occasional drought and lack of water can easily lead to leaf or branch drying or wilting.

two。 Excessive fertilization or insufficient supply of fertilizer. Jasmine is a typical fertilizer-loving plant, and adequate nutrient supply is one of the important conditions to ensure the full head of jasmine. During the cultivation of jasmine, flower lovers often suggest that "only serve with great water and fertilizer", but there must be a degree in everything. Excessive fertilization or long-term application of the same single fertilizer can easily cause jasmine in the bud stage to burn roots because it cannot absorb all the nutrients, or the bud will fall due to insufficient nutrient supply, seriously endangering the whole plant and causing branches or leaves to wither. Some flower friends do not recommend fertilization at the flower bract stage. in fact, plants need a lot of nutrients during flowering. No matter which plant is not in the dormant period, it is beneficial and harmless to the plant to apply thin fertilizer frequently and not to apply a large dose at one time.

3. The environment is uncomfortable or the light is uneven. Flower lovers who often breed jasmine know that jasmine likes sunshine very much. Sufficient light is the premise of photosynthesis in jasmine leaves to make the plant exuberant. If your jasmine is raised on the indoor balcony, be sure to give it the best light fixed position, and regularly turn the flowerpot for it during the peak growth period, so that the plant receives light evenly. Remember not to move the flower bud back and forth during the flower bract period. The bud of the jasmine is very fragile. The normal bud will yellowed and fall automatically after it opens one day. Moving back and forth can easily cause the unopened bud to fall off due to environmental discomfort or movement.

In addition to the above reasons, basin soil consolidation will also make plant growth uncomfortable, resulting in the root system can not get the normal supply of nutrients to the bud or branches and leaves, resulting in the bud can not open normally or branches and leaves damaged. The condition of the basin soil should be observed frequently, and the consolidation should be found to loosen the soil in the basin in time. During fertilization, the combined application of inorganic fertilizer and mature organic fertilizer can increase the content of humus in the basin soil and make the soil more loose and breathable. Changing the slightly acidic sandy loam with good drainage to the jasmine every spring can effectively prevent the soil from hardening at the flower bract stage.
