Is it easy to cultivate "Cliff June Snow"? How to cultivate it.
Summary: This article provides related experience on whether it is easy to cultivate "Cliff June Snow" and the management points for cultivating this flowering plant, as follows:
"Cliff June Snow" is a deciduous shrub with brown stems, many branches, opposite leaves, elliptical in shape, resembling melon seeds, and soft branches that are easily twisted. In midsummer, in the shaded areas of mountains and fields, the dense branches on short trunks are covered with tiny white flowers, as white as snow, creating a beautiful effect of blossoming flowers among the branches. Because the flowers are small and dense, it is as if snow is falling in June, hence the name "Stars in the Sky". With its short twisted branches, lush foliage, and strong root system, it can be easily transformed into a tree-stump penjing with intertwined roots and branches, which is currently a popular choice for penjing materials.
"Cliff June Snow" is not picky about soil quality, preferring slightly acidic soil rich in humus and good drainage. Potting soil can be made of fertile mountain soil or a mixture of 4 parts garden soil, 4 parts decomposed leaf soil, and 2 parts sand. "Cliff June Snow" is relatively drought-resistant and can tolerate poor soil. Fertilizing too frequently or too heavily can cause wild growth and affect the tree's shape. Generally, fertilize once with cake fertilizer in both spring and summer. When potting, apply some thin fertilizer in winter, and avoid fertilizing in other seasons. After the beginning of winter, it should be moved indoors for care, and the indoor temperature during the cold season should not be below 0°C, otherwise, it may wither. Fertilizing should be minimal. In addition to the base fertilizer, it is usually sufficient to apply a dilute, decomposed liquid fertilizer once in early summer or late autumn. Excessive fertilization and water can easily cause excessive growth, making it difficult to control the tree's shape.
The daily management of "Cliff June Snow" is also simple. In southern regions, it can be planted in large areas, creating a scene of snow-like flowers in summer. When the plants grow larger, they can be transplanted into penjings and pruned to ensure their growth. During summer, "Cliff June Snow" should be moved outdoors to a well-ventilated area to prevent wild branch growth and yellowing of leaves. When watering, sprinkle water on the surface of the liquid.
The above introduction to whether it is easy to cultivate "Cliff June Snow" and the specific management points for cultivating this plant hopes to provide green plant enthusiasts with some knowledge about flowers.
