How to Care for茉莉花期
Today, I will explain in detail how to care for茉莉花期 and share the experience of green plant maintenance, including the care methods for drooping jasmine. This will definitely help you, so let's take a look!
April and May are the times when茉莉花 grows wildly, and after May, another wave of blooming is coming. Therefore, this period is very important. Whether the plant blooms well in the summer depends entirely on whether the maintenance during this period is in place. If well cared for, it can bloom until the National Day. Today, let's talk about the preparations before茉莉 flower blooming.
Removing Buds
Usually,茉莉 flower should be pruned as soon as spring comes, but some people are lazy and don't prune, so the plant will grow many new branches and even sprout flower buds early. However, these flower buds cannot be left, as even if they are retained, the quality of the flowers will not be high. They should be removed in time, which can also save a lot of nutrients and prepare for the next wave of blooming.
Watering and Fertilizing
Although茉莉 likes a moist and fertile environment, it's not just about giving it a lot of water and fertilizer. Watering should only be done when the soil looks white, and the amount of water should be moderate. Long-term excessive moisture can also harm the roots.
Remember to fertilize before the plant is about to bloom. Generally, in the evening, water with a light fertilizer solution, and then water a bit more the next day. This way, the roots absorb nutrients faster.

Pruning
By the end of May,茉莉 flowers will bloom fully and continue to bloom until October. Therefore, in addition to light, water, and fertilizer, frequent pruning is necessary at this time. However, some people can't bear to cut, feeling sorry even when a leaf falls. But too many leaves and branches not only分散 nutrients but also affect the overall shape, so moderate pruning is needed.
Propagation by Cutting
Matching pruning is definitely propagation by cutting, because the branches and leaves pruned are still in good condition, and it's a pity to throw them away. You can propagate a few more pots by cutting. Just leave a few buds and leaves on the branches and insert them into moist substrates, and they will quickly take root and grow.
By the end of October,茉莉 flowers have pretty much finished blooming. The plant has consumed too many nutrients in the past half year of blooming, so it will enter a dormant period in winter. At this time, many people will prune, thinking it will help the plant retain nutrients and survive the winter, but this practice is actually wrong.
