Culture methods and matters needing attention of water plum blossom

Water plum blossom is a kind of shrub plant, the flower is beautiful, with a strong ornamental, it is simple and easy to raise, is very suitable for novice flowers. So how to raise the water plum blossom? What should I pay attention to? Come and have a look with the editor.

I. Culture methods

1. Lighting

Water plum blossoms like to grow in a warm environment, so they need to provide sufficient light when breeding, either full sunshine or half-day rent. However, when the light is too strong in summer, it is necessary to move in the semi-shade or indoor maintenance, so as to avoid plant burns, affect growth, and is also disadvantageous to late flowering.

2. Temperature

Water plum blossom is not particularly cold-resistant, it is necessary to keep the temperature at 3-5 degrees when overwintering. If the temperature is below 0 degrees, it will suffer frost damage, which is bad for plant growth and flowering. But at the same time, it should not exceed 16 degrees when overwintering, otherwise the plant will germinate ahead of time, causing flowers and buds to fall, and it is appropriate to keep the temperature at 10-15 degrees before flowering.

3. Moisture

Watering should follow the principle of not drying and watering thoroughly. If too much watering leads to long-term moisture of the soil, it is easy to produce stagnant water and cause plant root rot. If the basin soil is too dry, a small amount of water should be watered, so that the basin soil will be watered through gradually, otherwise the root tip will be short of water, and if the amount of water suddenly increases, it will cause serious bud drop.

4. Fertilization

Before flowering in spring, nitrogen and phosphorus compound fertilizer can be applied properly for 1-2 times to avoid buds falling during flowering, but pay attention to the amount of nitrogen fertilizer should not be too much, so as not to grow leaves without flowering. From September to October, thin fertilizers with high phosphorus content, such as chicken manure, should be applied once a month to promote bud formation.

II. Points for attention

The growth of water plum blossom has certain requirements for the soil, which requires that the soil pH value is between 5-6.5. the soil is too acid or alkali, clay and saline-alkali potato are disadvantageous to its growth and development, and the root system is difficult to be absorbed. Once the base fertilizer contains phosphorus, iron, sulfur and other elements, to ensure that the water plum blossom growth is more exuberant, the leaves are green. In addition, we also need to pay attention to changing pots, potted soil fertility is limited, every 1-2 years need to change soil, to ensure that the soil is loose and breathable, to ensure better plant growth.

The above is the introduction of plum culture methods and matters needing attention. I hope it can help you. If you want to know more about it, please pay attention to us.
