Adequate lighting
Osmanthus fragrans likes sunny environment, but it can also tolerate semi-hidden environment. When it was young, it was very hot in summer, and it liked semi-shady environment. When they grow up, Miao prefers sunshine.
Sunshine: Osmanthus fragrans can be raised in July, and Osmanthus fragrans cultivated outdoors can be raised in sufficient sunshine. Osmanthus fragrans cultivated indoors also needs to be kept in the most sunny place, because summer belongs to the stage of naturalized flower bud differentiation, and more sunshine is beneficial to flower bud differentiation of Osmanthus fragrans. Because the flower bud differentiation of osmanthus fragrans mostly begins in June and is completed from the end of August to the beginning of September, it is very important to have sufficient sunshine in July.
(2) Fertilization in July is very important.
Osmanthus fragrans is a kind of fertilizer-loving flower, because it has a long flowering time and many flowers, and it is easy to consume a lot of nutrition. Insufficient fertility, poor growth, reduced flowering, and flowers are not fragrant. Therefore, apply fertilizer before germination in spring, topdressing again in the growing season in April and May, and applying fertilizer when it is hot in summer. How to fertilize in July?
Fertilization: When the crown of Osmanthus fragrans grows up, what we should do is to promote flowering, because the high temperature in summer is the flower bud differentiation period of Osmanthus fragrans. Fertilizing osmanthus fragrans during this period is conducive to flower bud differentiation, and the more conducive to flowering in autumn, the brighter and more fragrant osmanthus fragrans will be.
When applying fertilizer to osmanthus fragrans in summer, usually in early July, a thin liquid fertilizer can be applied once, and the ratio of fertilizer to water is 1:9. Huaduoduo 2 can be used as flower fertilizer, because Huaduoduo 2 contains not only phosphorus and potassium, but also nitrogen, which can promote the growth and flowering of osmanthus fragrans. If potassium dihydrogen phosphate is simply used, it can not promote the vigorous growth of osmanthus fragrans.
When fertilizing osmanthus fragrans, we can water it once before fertilizing it, which can make the fertilizer thinner and prevent it from burning its roots. And fertilizing again after flowering.
Osmanthus fragrans likes slightly acidic soil. Flower friends in the north can apply 0.2% ferrous sulfate water-soluble fertilizer to osmanthus every 30 days or so to prevent iron-deficiency yellow leaves from rotting roots.
③ Like humid environment.
Osmanthus fragrans likes warm and humid environment, and the suitable humidity for growing period is 70% to 85%. If it is too dry, it will affect the flowering of osmanthus fragrans. However, if you don't water too much, the pot soil will be wet by water, which is prone to rotten roots and fallen leaves.
Watering: Although Osmanthus fragrans likes wet environment, it doesn't like that the soil in the basin is too wet, so we can wait until the soil is dry before watering. The best watering time is in the morning or evening.
In order to moisten the environment of osmanthus fragrans, we can often spray water on the leaves and surrounding areas, which can reduce the temperature and increase the air humidity. However, ventilation is better to prevent the rotting roots of pests and diseases.
It rains heavily in July. In this case, it is necessary to move to a shelter from the rain to prevent root problems and root rot of osmanthus fragrans.
Water osmanthus, preferably with rain. If tap water is used, it can be left for 24 hours until the chlorine in the water evaporates.
Osmanthus fragrans is not only beautiful, but also fragrant and sweet, so it is deeply loved by flower friends. In July, we cultivated osmanthus fragrans. As long as the sunshine is sufficient, the soil is dried, watered and sprayed frequently, and the ventilation is good. We can make osmanthus blossom more and more brightly in autumn and have a strong fragrance.
