Scholar trees generally bloom from June to July every year, with multiple flowers, racemose inflorescence, light yellow color, and a faint fragrance when blooming. They have high ornamental value. During the growth period of scholar trees, they need timely watering to maintain soil moisture and a moderate application of thin fertilizer to control the concentration. Moreover, scholar trees are sun-loving plants. To bloom better, they should be maintained in a sunny location, with proper shading in the summer.
Blooming Time of Scholar Trees
Scholar trees are originally from the northern part of China and are widely planted in the Loess Plateau and the plains of Northeast and North China. They are commonly cultivated throughout the north and south of China. They are also distributed in Japan, Korea, and Vietnam. They generally bloom from June to July every year, with a blooming period of about 10 to 15 days.

The Appearance of Scholar Tree Flowers

Key Points for Planting and Blooming Scholar Trees
1. Soil
Scholar trees do not have high requirements for soil, but it is best to choose soil with deep layers, good drainage, and strong permeability. Usually, a mixture of garden soil, humus soil, fine sand, and decomposed organic fertilizer can be used. The potting soil should be changed every 1-2 years.
2. Water
Scholar trees are suitable for growing in moist soil. Therefore, it is necessary to water them more during their growing season. In spring and summer, the soil should be kept moist. In the summer when temperatures are very high, some water mist should be sprayed on their leaves.
3. Sunlight
Scholar trees need plenty of sunlight to bloom. However, when the sun is particularly strong in the summer, proper shading is needed. When the temperature is below 13 degrees, they should be placed indoors for maintenance while ensuring good ventilation.
4. Fertilizer
Scholar trees are fertilizer-loving plants. Sufficient fertilization during their growth period will make them grow stronger. The fertilization should not be excessive, usually using thin fertilizer and diluting the concentration before application. After fertilizing, sufficient water should be poured to avoid burning the roots with too concentrated fertilizer.
