How can we make sweet-scented osmanthus trees blossom more? In addition to properly applying more phosphorus and potassium fertilizers during the whole growth period, sweet-scented osmanthus should be moved to more than 0 ℃ indoor winter in late autumn to keep the potted soil slightly moist, and to promote its flowering and fragrance, we should also pay attention to the following four links. The pot culture of slightly acidic soil can choose 5 parts of mountain mud, 3 parts of humus soil, 2 parts of sandy soil or half of rotten leaf soil and sandy loam soil as culture soil. If the soil acidity is too strong, the growth is slow, and the leaves are withered and yellow; if alkaline soil is used, the leaves will wither or even die after 2 to 3 months. Timely watering sweet-scented osmanthus should master "two less and one more", that is, less watering before the occurrence of new shoots, less watering in rainy days, and more watering in dry weather in summer and autumn. Usually watering is appropriate to keep the water content of the basin soil about 50%. Drainage should be carried out in time on cloudy and rainy days to prevent stagnant water in the basin from rotting roots, otherwise it is easy to "drown". Skillfully fertilize sweet-scented osmanthus like pig manure, the local flower proverb has "to make sweet-scented osmanthus, more pig manure tank" said. According to the practical experience of local florists, if the rotten and thin pig manure can be applied from the sprouting of sweet-scented osmanthus in early spring, once every 10 to 15 days from April to May, once every 7 to 10 days from June to July, and the last time in early August, it can ensure that the sweet-scented osmanthus grows luxuriantly, blossoms more and has a rich flavor. There is no pig manure in the city, so rotten cake fertilizer can be used (or Huimanfeng, Chunquan 883, Opal and other highly efficient active fertilizers). If there is not enough fertilizer, there will be fewer branches, fewer flowers, and no fragrance. Properly pruned sweet-scented osmanthus has developed root system and strong germination. Adult sweet-scented osmanthus trees shoot twice a year. Therefore, in order to make sweet-scented osmanthus branches and flowers flourish, it is necessary to prune properly to maintain the physiological balance between reproductive growth and vegetative growth. In general, long branches, thin branches, disease and insect branches should be cut off to facilitate ventilation, light and nutrient concentration, so as to promote sweet-scented osmanthus to give birth to more and fuller flower buds.
