Today's experience sharing: the topic of Jasminum longiflorum blooming and bearing fruit in a few months and the method of making Jasminum longiflorum bloom quickly is about flowers and plants, which is very good knowledge. It is recommended to collect it!
In the southern regions of China, such as Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan, Fujian, and southern Taiwan, you can see the figure of Jasminum longiflorum in parks and botanical gardens. Jasminum longiflorum is a type of woody plant in the Rutaceae family that is especially fragrant when blooming. It can be planted in northern regions, but it is important to protect against the cold.
Jasminum longiflorum flowers are pure white and the fragrance is strong.
There are actually several similar ornamental varieties of Jasminum longiflorum, including豆叶九里香 (Jasminum longiflorum 'Douye'), 小叶九里香 (Jasminum longiflorum 'Xiaoye'), 兰屿九里香 (Jasminum longiflorum 'Lanyu'), 千里香 (Jasminum longiflorum 'Qianli'), and 广西九里香 (Jasminum longiflorum 'Guangxi'). They all belong to the genus Jasminum.
Jasminum longiflorum can be grown into a low, shrub-like bush. It is particularly resistant to pruning and can be used as an ornamental plant, especially in places without frost.
Its fruit turns red when ripe.
Jasminum longiflorum is very suitable for growing in pots and can also be grown into a bonzai. After all, it is a small tree that can grow to a large size, with plants over several decades old reaching more than five meters tall.
1. Warm environment
Many flower friends are not unfamiliar with Jasminum longiflorum. It can be grown in both the north and south, provided it is protected during the winter, with an overwintering temperature maintained above 5 degrees Celsius.
Jasminum longiflorum naturally prefers a warm environment, with the fastest growth at temperatures between 18 and 30 degrees Celsius. In excessively high temperatures, as long as water is supplemented in time, it does not need to be shaded.
2. Sufficient sunlight
Jasminum longiflorum is relatively heat and sun-resistant. In the hot summer, if it is potted, it can also be kept in a full-sun environment as long as water is supplemented in time, provided it has already adapted to a sunlit environment. If Jasminum longiflorum has been kept in the shade for a long time, it should be gradually exposed to more light and not exposed to direct sunlight all at once.
Jasminum longiflorum particularly loves sunlight and should not be kept in the shade. It is best to have more than 6-8 hours of sunlight a day to maintain a healthy and good growth state. Some friends' Jasminum longiflorum do not bloom or have poor foliage and do not grow, which may be due to environmental reasons, such as lack of sunlight.
3. Choose the right soil
When cultivating Jasminum longiflorum, try to choose slightly acidic sandy soil with good drainage and enough loose and ventilated soil, such as mixing common vegetable garden soil with river sand in a 4:1 ratio. For potted plants, you can use common peat soil, coarse coconut shell, and perlite in a 5:3:2 ratio. River sand can be used to replace perlite to slightly increase the weight of the potting soil.
4. Watering techniques
Jasminum longiflorum has a certain drought resistance after it is established. It can survive even if watering is forgotten occasionally, but the leaves at the bottom of the plant may turn yellow and dry. However, if Jasminum longiflorum is potted and kept in a sunlit environment, do not let the soil dry out frequently.
Before watering each time, you can touch the topsoil. If the soil two or three centimeters below the surface is dry, you can water thoroughly.
5. Pay attention to humidity
Jasminum longiflorum is very suitable for growing in the southern regions of China. It prefers a warm and humid environment all year round and has certain requirements for air humidity. It is best to keep the humidity above 50% all year round.
If the air is particularly dry, you need to find ways to increase the humidity, such as spraying the leaves with water when the weather is good and sunny, or placing a pot of water nearby.
6. Fertilization
If you want Jasminum longiflorum to bloom, in addition to ensuring sufficient sunlight and a warm environment, you also need to pay attention to applying fertilizer frequently, especially after the spring warm-up, such as in April and May, which is its blooming period. At this time, you can supplement with flower-promoting fertilizer every seven days or so. You can also supplement with a solution of monopotassium phosphate every 7-10 days and occasionally apply some acidic fertilizers, such as ferrous sulfate solution.
If Jasminum longiflorum is grown in the ground, you can bury decomposed sheep manure or other organic compost in the soil in advance.
The above is a detailed introduction to when Jasminum longiflorum blooms and bears fruit and how to make it bloom quickly. I hope everyone will like it!
