Lead: At this time of year, many flowers and plants are competing to bloom beautiful flowers, such as roses, roses, etc. However, although some flowers and plants have beautiful appearance, these varieties are very difficult to maintain. If you are not careful, you will miss the flowering period and cannot appreciate the beauty of the flowers.

Whether it is planted in the ground or potted plants, they only need to have some basic knowledge of maintenance and management. It can grow stronger and stronger, making it more addictive for novice flower lovers.
Let's take a look at what knowledge points you lack among the knowledge points shared by Xiaobian. Take the time to "recharge" and don't be defeated by these "minefields."
First point: pruning rhododendrons. Since they are tall trees that have been growing for many years, they need to be pruned frequently, picked and removed from the top advantage, so as to avoid unnecessary blooms.

In addition, in addition to the necessary pruning work, it is also necessary to prune part of the lateral branches according to the appearance needs of the potted plant to improve the ornamental value and economic value of the potted plant. At the same time, it is also necessary to apply purple medicine to the trimmed wound in time to sterilize and disinfect it to prevent water from melting. It can also accelerate the healing of the wound and allow it to sprout more lateral branches as soon as possible.
Second point: Soil azaleas do not have high requirements on the soil, and can be planted in the park soil alone. However, too poor soil quality will reduce the quality of flowering and even cause blind flowers to appear. Therefore, when changing soil, it is best to mix it with some humus soil with rich organic matter and sandy soil with good water permeability.
At the same time, naturally withered pine needles collected in the spring and autumn can also be dried, chopped and piled on the surface of the flower soil. It can not only decompose some nutrients for absorption, but also lock up water in summer and keep warm in winter. In addition, the acidic substances in it can also automatically balance the acidity and alkali of the soil, effectively delaying the speed of soil agglomeration.
