How to care for jasmine in winter to ensure its safe survival
This article provides a brief introduction on how to care for jasmine in winter to help it survive and some tips on cultivating plants that can tolerate low temperatures, as follows:
Jasmine is one of the most common plants on the market, and it can be seen flowering almost anytime when visiting the market. The fragrance is very strong when you walk by it. It is a plant that blooms throughout the year and fills the room with fragrance. In the north, some may still be flowering in winter, while others have completely shed their leaves. So, how should we care for jasmine in winter?
If we want our jasmine to continue growing and flowering normally in winter, it's simple – we must ensure the temperature is suitable because it can only grow at the right temperature. We need to keep the indoor temperature above 15 degrees to ensure its normal growth.
The second point is to provide it with adequate sunlight. Jasmine is a plant that requires strong sunlight. For normal growth and flowering, sunlight is essential. Without enough light, the branches will grow long and soft, and it will be impossible to produce flower buds. If both temperature and sunlight are suitable, we must also provide it with proper fertilization and watering. The watering principle is to water thoroughly when the potting soil is almost dry. For fertilization, we can use the "Flower More" type 2, which is high in phosphorus and potassium content without lacking other elements, ensuring at least 1-2 times a month. This will ensure it does not lack phosphorus and potassium fertilizers and can grow flower buds and bloom. After a bloom cycle is finished, we should prune the branches promptly, and it will bloom another round, which is the characteristic of jasmine flowering.
If the indoor temperature is relatively low in winter and cannot maintain a higher temperature, or even drops below 10 degrees, it may experience yellowing and shedding of leaves. In this case, we need to switch to another method of care. If the leaves of your jasmine turn yellow and fall off completely, we need to give it a strong pruning, cutting off the thin branches and shortening the thick and long branches appropriately, then moving it to a place with very abundant sunlight. Remember, the sunlight must be abundant. Ensure proper watering, usually when the potting soil is half-dry, water it thoroughly, and do not use fertilizer. By doing this throughout the winter, ensuring only that the potting soil does not lack moisture and remains moist, the plant will gradually grow when spring arrives.
In winter, if it's cold and you don't know how to care for your jasmine, I'll teach you these two methods. By following them, your jasmine will not have problems in winter and will directly sprout in spring. If the temperature is right, it can even bloom continuously throughout the winter.
