Dear flower friends, have you recently added a new camellia baby to your home, but you don't know how to take good care of it? Don't worry, today I will tell you in detail how to raise camellia so that your camellia blossoms bloom with the most beautiful brilliance! Light: Camellia's little secret of sunshine
Camellia is a little girl. It likes sunshine, but is afraid of strong direct light. In summer, you can't put it on the south balcony and let it have intimate contact with Father Sun! In that case, the small leaves of camellia would protest and turn yellow, or even appear scorched. The correct way to do this is to place it in an area with sufficient scattered light, such as next to an east or south facing window, so that it can enjoy the sun while avoiding sunburn! Moisture: Camellia's "See Dry and Wet" health regimen
Camellia likes a humid environment, but you can't let it soak in water! When watering, we must follow the principle of "see wet when it is dry" and wait until the soil surface is dry before watering it thoroughly, so that the roots can drink enough water and grow strong. In winter in the north, there is full of heat and the air is dry. The small leaves of camellia may dry up, pointed and withered. At this time, in addition to watering, more water should be sprayed on the leaves to create a moist nest for it. Soil: Camellia's "Red Soil Love"
Camellia prefers acidic red soil, which is loose and breathable and super friendly to root growth. When preparing soil, you can first sift the red loam soil to remove the gravel and impurities inside to make it more delicate. You can also add some river sand to improve the aeration and drainage capacity of the soil. The ratio of red loam soil to river sand is about 4:1. If the soil is alkaline, you can add a little ferrous sulfate when watering to adjust the pH and make the camellia grow happily. Temperature and ventilation: Camellia's "comfortable nest" The suitable growth temperature for Camellia is 20-32 degrees. Dear friends in the south, camellia can safely winter outdoors, and ordinary varieties can even withstand low temperatures of-8 degrees. Dear friends in the north, please invite camellia into the house in winter! When it is hot in summer, remember to shade it and avoid being exposed to the scorching sun. Ventilation is also very important. Putting it in a well-ventilated place can effectively reduce the occurrence of pests and diseases. Fertilization: The "nutritious meal" of camellia. Reasonable fertilization can make camellia bloom more brightly and luxuriantly. Spring to early summer is the period of vigorous growth of camellia. At this time, compound fertilizers can be applied once a month to meet its nutrient needs. After autumn, reduce the frequency of fertilization and use mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizers to promote plant health and flower bud differentiation. When fertilizing, pay attention to avoid direct contact between the fertilizer and the roots to avoid root burning. Pruning and pest control: Regular pruning by camellia's "beauticians" can not only maintain the good tree shape of camellia, but also help ventilation and light transmission, reducing the occurrence of pests and diseases. Mild pruning is carried out before new leaves germinate in spring to remove dead branches, weak branches and pests and diseases. Heavy pruning is carried out after flowering to maintain the appearance of the tree and stimulate the germination of new shoots. During pruning, pay attention to using clean and sharp tools to avoid damaging the plants.
For common pests and diseases, such as anthrax, powdery mildew and aphids, preventive measures mainly include strengthening daily management, such as reasonable watering and fertilization, and timely removal of dead branches and leaves. Once signs of pests and diseases are found, corresponding measures should be taken in a timely manner for treatment, such as spraying with appropriate pesticides. When selecting pesticides, try to choose high-efficiency and low-toxicity products and use them strictly in accordance with the instructions. Special care for camellia flowering period During camellia flowering period, we should pay special attention to the following points: 1. Watering and humidity management: Keep the soil slightly moist and avoid being too dry or too wet. Water is poured every 2-3 days, and the specific frequency needs to be adjusted according to the weather and environmental humidity. Air humidity can be increased by spraying.
2. Light and temperature control: Place camellia in a position with sufficient scattered light to avoid direct sunlight. The suitable growth temperature is 18-25 degrees Celsius. Pay attention to keeping warm in winter, and cover proper shade and cool down in summer.
3. Fertilization and nutritional supplementation: Choose a fertilizer rich in phosphorus and potassium and apply it once every two weeks. Pay attention to the dilution ratio to avoid excessive concentration and burning roots. Spraying trace element solutions on foliar surfaces can also help enhance plant stress resistance.
4. Pruning and pest control: prune dead branches and leaves in time to maintain beautiful plant shape and reduce the occurrence of pests and diseases. Conservation after the flowering period of camellia After the flowering period of camellia, we need to carry out the following maintenance work: 1. Trim: Cut off the residual flowers, trim the camellia tree, remove weak branches, and leave strong branches.
2. Pot change: Choose the right time to change pots for camellia to minimize root damage.
3. Timely topdressing: Add nitrogen fertilizer or compound fertilizer two to three times after flowering to promote the germination of new leaves.
Dear flower friends, it is not difficult to raise camellia well. As long as you take good care of it, it will definitely bring you endless beauty and joy. Let us work together to let the camellia bloom with the most beautiful brilliance under our care!
