Cuckoos like semi-shady environment, avoid direct exposure to the scorching sun, like cold and humid climate, afraid of hot and dry weather, like acidic soil and water, avoid alkalinity, like loose light loam rich in humus, afraid of clay soil with poor drainage, like light fertilizer water, and avoid applying thick fertilizer water. It has certain requirements for light, but it is not resistant to exposure. There should be deciduous trees or shade in summer and autumn to cover the scorching sun, and the ground is often sprayed with water. Rhododendron shoots are usually in spring and autumn, mainly spring shoots. The most suitable temperature for growth is 15-20 ℃. When the temperature is over 30 ℃ or below 5 ℃, the growth is stagnant.

Azaleas represent the joy of love, and it is said that people who like this flower are innocent.

The culture method of rhododendron
Beautiful plant, we need to make some efforts to love it, so is the rhododendron. What do we need to pay attention to in its cultivation? let's find out together.
1. It likes a cool environment. The area south of the Yellow River can be kept in a shady and ventilated place outside from mid-April to early November, with strong sunshine and high temperature in summer, which must be placed in a shade shed or tree shade to create a cool growth environment of semi-overcast and rain; in winter, it is appropriate to put it in a greenhouse or indoor maintenance, keeping the temperature above 5 ℃.
2. Watering needs attention. No dry, no watering, watering thoroughly, strictly prevent waist water, this is the principle of rhododendron watering. Because azaleas like acidity, it is best to acidify the water with black alum before use. When watering, Rain Water must be used for watering. If tap water is used, tap water must be used after drying, because the roots of azaleas are relatively weak, and they are both afraid of waterlogging and are not resistant to drought, so special attention should be paid to controlling the amount of water. Under normal circumstances, spring and autumn can be watered every 2-3 days. It grows vigorously in summer and consumes a lot of water, so it needs to be watered 1-2 times a day. Watering time should be 8-10:00 and 4-6 pm, hot summer is not suitable for watering at noon, after the root is stimulated by cold water, flowers will be hurt.
3. Requirements of fertilization and basin soil. Azaleas like acid soils that are loose, permeable, well drained and contain humus. Generally, rotten cake fertilizer and fish meal are watered with water after decaying. After leaving the room, before the flower buds spit out flowers, thin fertilizer is applied every 10 days, with a concentration of 15%, and a total of 3 times of 2 mi, so as to promote the old leaves to turn green and sprout new roots. After the flowers fade, in order to promote the growth of branches and leaves, fertilization was applied 6 times from mid-May to early July. If it rains continuously, dry fertilizer can be applied. Before entering the house, before the growth of azaleas is about to stop, fertilizers should be applied for 1 / 2 times.
