1. Planting and transplanting: The best time for transplanting Wisteria is from early March to early April, with Qingming Festival being the most suitable time, followed by autumn.

2. Lighting and watering: Wisteria flowers are light-loving plants, so during the growing season, they must be placed in an outdoor sunny area. Wisteria flowers also require a lot of water during the growing season, needing to keep the soil moist. Keep the potting soil moist in spring and autumn, and water twice a day in summer and autumn. Increase watering frequency during high-temperature seasons.

3. Regular fertilization: Wisteria flowers are fertilizer-loving plants. A lack of fertilizer in potted Wisteria flowers can lead to weak branches, yellowing leaves, and weakened plant growth, resulting in fewer or no flowers. However, excessive fertilization can cause excessive growth of branches and leaves. Fertilize more during the vigorous growing season of spring and summer, less in autumn, and no fertilization during the dormant period in winter. Avoid fertilizing during rainy seasons and hot summer afternoons.

4. Fertilizing: Follow the principle of applying thin fertilizer frequently. In early March, use nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium fertilizers to promote branching. From late May to early June, apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizers to promote flower bud enlargement and strengthen branches and flowers. Apply flowering fertilizers each in late July and early September, using materials like cake fertilizer water, to make the flowers more vibrant.

After Wisteria flowers bloom, remove the残花 to extend the blooming period. Timely cut off crossed branches, diseased branches, and radiation branches to avoid consuming extra nutrients. Also, for aesthetic purposes, usually prune other branches 1 centimeter above the full terminal bud, leaving about 5 centimeters.

6. Timely potting change: Potted Wisteria flowers need to change the potting soil every two to three years. Use a mixture of 5 parts loose mountain soil, 3 parts garden soil, and 2 parts fine river sand to make the growing medium. When changing pots, use organic fertilizers like bone meal or soybean cake powder as base fertilizer, mixed into the topsoil layer. Do not let the fertilizer come into direct contact with the roots to avoid root burn and affect plant growth.
