Osmanthus flowers bloom in which month, describing the blooming time of osmanthus.
Osmanthus flowers bloom in which month?Do you know about these? Information about when osmanthus flowers bloom and some small experiences in green plant maintenance regarding the blooming period of osmanthus will be explored together in the following content.There is less than a month left before the osmanthus flowers are about to bloom. I remember when I was in high school, every September and October, as soon as I stepped out of the classroom after class, I could smell the strong fragrance of flowers in the air. It seemed that the whole world was filled with the scent of osmanthus. Even though I couldn't see the osmanthus flowers, their fragrance floated in the air like a "living perfume."The osmanthus flowers growing by the roadside do not bloom for a long time, usually lasting about 20 days before they start to wither. However, if you cultivate osmanthus flowers yourself and take good care of them, it is possible for them to bloom for up to two months. The flowering period of osmanthus is approaching. How should we take care of them during the period before the osmanthus flowers bloom?1. Methods to make osmanthus bloom morea. Master the unique watering method for osmanthusI believe that the watering method for osmanthus is not suitable for "watering when dry" or "watering until completely wet," but requires individual mastery. In the season of transition between summer and autumn when the weather is relatively dry, it is necessary to water more. Keeping the soil slightly moist is fine, and using a spray bottle to water can avoid excessive watering and effectively control the amount of water.If the weather is overcast or rainy, less watering is needed. Osmanthus that has been rained on should be drained in time to prevent the issue of accumulated water in the potting soil. Osmanthus is prone to rot when the soil is waterlogged. Less watering is also recommended when new shoots appear.b. Different fertilizing frequencies at different timesMany long-term flower growers should know that osmanthus prefers animal manure, especially pig manure. Therefore, osmanthus is usually fertilized with decomposed pig manure solution. I have seen that most osmanthus flowers are fertilized with decomposed cake fertilizer solution.Only when the osmanthus flowers absorb fertilizer will they produce more flowers and have a stronger fragrance. It is now mid-August, and you can apply the last dose of fertilizer before the flowering period. Previously, it was fertilized once every 10 days in spring and once a week in summer.c. Daily pruning management cannot be stoppedOsmanthus has a long lifespan, and its root system is very developed. Generally, a mature osmanthus tree will have two stages of growing new branches each year. It is especially important to prune before the flowering period, so that the flowers will be more vibrant in color and produce more full blooms.The pruning method is the same as usual. Cut off the old, weak, and withered branches, and do some thinning in dense growth areas. This allows for more even sunlight exposure. When pruning thick branches like osmanthus, it is better to use professional gardening shears.
