When does cinnamon blossom?

Dangui, also known as rhinoceros and sweet-scented osmanthus, is an evergreen tree of the genus Oleaceae, distributed in the north subtropical deciduous and evergreen broad-leaved mixed forest in the Yangtze River basin and its south, dioecious, with long oval leaves, orange-red flowers, strong fragrance and a round crown, which is often used as a landscape tree species. Let's take a look at when Dangui will bloom.

When does cinnamon blossom?

The period of Dandan and Gui is from September to early October, and the fruit period is in March of the following year. Cinnamon is a valuable variety among all the varieties of cinnamon. It blossoms in red flowers, mainly in October, slightly later than Jin Gui and Yingui. Cymes are clustered in leaf axils or nearly broom-shaped, with many flowers in each axil, bracts broadly ovate, pedicels thin and weak, flowers extremely fragrant, calyx about 1 mm long, lobes slightly irregular, Corolla yellowish white, yellowish, yellow or orange-red, stamens inserted in the middle of Corolla tube, filaments very short.

How many years does cinnamon blossom?

The variety of cinnamon is very special and can not be obtained by sowing at present, only grafting or cutting, which determines the flowering time of cinnamon. Grafted cassia can generally blossom within a year, but most of the grafted cassia is used for potted plants and cannot be used for scenic trees. Cutting cassia can generally blossom at the age of four years, which can be used for potted plants and landscape greening.

What if cinnamon doesn't blossom?

1, location: cassia belongs to the kind of long-day plants, sexual like strong light, so potted cassia must be placed in the sun as much as possible. If the light is insufficient, during the period of growth and development, potted cassia can not get the required sunlight, which will lead to excessive growth of plant leaves, and even cause defoliation, affecting the differentiation and formation of flower buds.

2. Adequate nutrients: although cinnamon potted plants are not strict in using soil, it is better to use slightly acidic soil, which can be made of mountain mud or rotten leaf soil, garden soil, river sand and so on. Fertilization is generally applied with nitrogen-based quick-acting fertilizer at the time of bud germination and new leaves in spring and once with phosphorus and potassium fertilizer before flowering in July. Change the basin and soil every one and a half years, and apply an appropriate amount of cake fertilizer when changing the basin. Only in this way can the basin soil not be hardened, the root system can stretch freely, and the flowering will not be affected by lack of nutrients.

3. Proper watering: cinnamon has high requirements for water, and stagnant water is most avoided. Watering in the growing season should be dry and wet, and the humidity of the basin soil should be 50%. If it is watered too much or stagnant water in the basin for a long time, it will lead to rotten roots and fallen leaves. It is bound to affect normal flowering. In general, the new pot soil of Cinnamomum cassia transplant is watered once first, and wait about 10 days for the plant to resume growth and send out new leaves before normal watering, less watering before the occurrence of new shoots and cloudy days, and more watering in dry weather in summer and autumn.

4. Avoid smoke and dust: cinnamon is the most taboo plant, especially the most sensitive to soot and oil and gas discharged from the kitchen. If the growing cinnamon is polluted by the above air, the growth is poor, and the leaves become smaller and easy to fall off, resulting in little or no flowering.

5. Shaping and pruning: cassia has the characteristics of developed root system and strong germinating ability. generally, adult cassia trees shoot twice every spring and autumn rainy season, and the physiological balance of reproductive growth and vegetative growth should be maintained and pruned in time. Pruning should be carried out after flowering in autumn or before sprouting in spring, cutting off dense branches, overgrown branches, residual branches, disease and insect branches. Cut off the budding branches during the growing period to concentrate nutrients and bloom luxuriantly.
