Camellia, also known as Camellia, is the general name of many plants and horticultural varieties of Theaceae and Camellia. The petals are bowl-shaped, divided into single or double, single camellias are mostly primitive flowers, double camellias can have as many as 60 petals. Camellias have varying degrees of red, purple, white, yellow flowers, and even color striped camellias, and flower branches can reach up to 4 meters. Sex likes a warm, humid environment. The flowering period is longer, blooming from October to May of the following year, and the flowering period is usually from January to March.

Because of its beautiful shape, bright green leaves and colorful flowers, it is cherished by the horticultural circles all over the world. There are many varieties of camellias, which is a traditional ornamental flower in China. It ranks eighth among the "top ten famous flowers" and is also one of the most valuable flowers and trees in the world.

1. Camellia likes slightly acidic soil with loose soil and good drainage. Both clayey and alkaline soils are not applicable. And the basin soil had better be changed once every two years, pay attention to the base fertilizer of the basin floor pad when changing the basin, and a small amount of bone powder, chicken dung, bean cake and other substances can be used. The time to change the basin should be in spring.

2. Camellia prefers half-yin and half-yang environment, warm and humid. The optimum temperature for its growth is 15 ℃ to 25 ℃, so it is suitable to grow in semi-overcast or scattered light environment. There is plenty of sunshine near the south window in winter, so it should be placed near the south windowsill. Spray water mist on and around the branches and leaves in high temperature in summer to cool down and prevent dryness. The hot weather should be shaded at the right time.

3, Camellia is fleshy root, too much watering is easy to rot root, must be appropriate. Water the leaves twice a day during drought and high temperatures. Camellia likes fertilizer, in addition to flowering, usually thin fertilizer can be applied frequently, but do not apply thick fertilizer, otherwise it is easy to hurt the root and cause the plant to be burned to death. Fertilizer is mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizer is secondary, fertilization should be far away from the flower root, in order to prevent root burning. In order to make the camellia grow exuberantly and the plant is strong.

The adaptability of camellia is poor, and the position of the pot can not be moved at will during the budding and budding period, so as to avoid the leaves on the shady side suddenly wither and fall in contact with strong light. Foliar surface is often sprayed with nutrient solution and water. To maintain its moisture and nutrient absorption.

Camellia should be fertilized properly.

Camellia has a large number of flowers, bright colors, and luxuriant branches and leaves. If you want camellias to blossom three times a year, you need to learn a skill. This technique is to meet the growth needs of camellias and scientifically replenish nutrients to camellias according to different seasons and different periods of physiological activities.

1. Sufficient fertilizer should be applied during the peak growth period.

Fertilizer is the food of camellias and must be timely and in the right amount. Flower friends to achieve the prosperous period (May-June) to apply enough fertilizer, slow growth period, such as early spring, early autumn, late autumn, etc., less fertilizer. Fertilization can use flower organic nutrient solution, generally once a week watering camellias, diluted 500 times, camellias can grow exuberantly.

2. Applying liquid fertilizer in dry season

In dry weather, camellias need to be watered frequently, every 4-5 days, you can apply some fertilizer in the water, watering with water, so that light quality is applied frequently, which is conducive to the development and growth of camellias.

3. Powdery fertilizer should be applied in rainy season.

In the rainy season, the basin soil is often wet and dry, liquid fertilizer is easy to be lost, and fertilizer is ineffective and useless. Therefore, flower friends should apply powder fertilizer in the rainy season. For example, dry, grind and sift chicken manure, duck manure, etc., after the rain stops, apply this kind of fertilizer to the surface of the basin soil, waiting for the fertilizer juice to be gradually absorbed by camellias.

4. Applying nitrogen fertilizer during leaf bud sprouting.

When the camellias fade and the leaf buds sprout, nitrogen fertilizer should be applied in time to promote sprouting and growing leaves.

5. Applying phosphate fertilizer in bud period.

From May to June, the new branches and leaves initially grow, and the new branches begin to conceive buds, which is suitable to apply phosphate fertilizer to promote the formation and development of flower buds.

6. Potash fertilizer should be applied before winter.

In late autumn, camellias grow slowly, their physiological activities become weak, and require very little fertilizer. In order to increase the anti-freezing ability of camellias, potassium fertilizer should be applied 1-2 times before the beginning of winter, which is helpful for camellias to survive the winter safely.

Camellias need to be pruned properly.

1. Cut off diseased branches and grow branches, and properly wipe buds for pruned branches to promote branches. This kind of pruning can keep the camellias growing better, and the flowers are larger and brightly colored.

2. Light pruning should be carried out every year to cut off some overgrown branches.

3. Camellias are not suitable for early pruning in winter. If the camellias are prematurely trimmed, the cold weather will frostbite the camellias and affect their growth. The best pruning is from mid to late January.

4. During the period from pruning to germination of new buds, it is best to apply compound fertilizer based on nitrogen fertilizer and spray foliar fertilizer once when new buds germinate, so as to make spring germination more vigorous.

5. If the camellias are planted on the ground and the temperature is warmer in winter, before pruning (November)

Taking about 12 times of the diameter of the camellia main rod as the diameter and taking the main rod as the center, the lateral roots were cut off around the main rod for a week to promote the germination of more new roots and lay a foundation for better growth in the coming year.
