First, the feeding method
1. Pot: Small pots and tiles can be used for seedlings of Sijigui, and the big pots can be changed later. Because cinnamon can grow very big and have many roots, there must be enough room for growth in order to grasp the soil and fully absorb nutrients.
2, lighting: Four Seasons laurel loves light, and it needs sufficient light when cultivating, so that plants will flourish. Indoor maintenance of cinnamon also needs sufficient light.
3, watering: Sijigui is more drought-tolerant, of course, if it is not short of water, it will grow better, with sufficient water and vigorous growth. It needs to be based on the dry humidity of the basin or the principle of "drying thoroughly and pouring thoroughly". When the weather is hot, you can spray water and fertilizer on the branches and leaves at night.
4. Fertilization: Cinnamon does not have enough nutrition in the four seasons. Fertilize cinnamon. When it needs to germinate in spring, apply a proper amount of fertilizer, and apply cake fertilizer or other organic fertilizer every 10-20 days. Before flowering, the amount of nitrogen fertilizer should be reduced, mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer.
5, pruning: potted osmanthus, need to prevent growing too high, maintain a good shape, pruning in time. When the osmanthus trees are dense and affect the light, it is necessary to thinning and pruning the uncoordinated branches and leaves.
Second, matters needing attention
1. The suitable growth temperature of osmanthus fragrans is 20℃-30℃. Too high or too low temperature will affect the flowering of osmanthus fragrans. Be sure to breed in a warm place in winter to avoid freezing injury.
2. The flowering degree of osmanthus fragrans is also related to humidity. When the humidity is too low, osmanthus fragrans grows slowly and blooms less. Therefore, in the breeding period, it is necessary to spray water on osmanthus regularly to improve the humidity of the surrounding environment.

Osmanthus fragrans is distributed in the Yangtze River basin and common potted plants in the south and north of China. I like warm and humid climate and have certain cold resistance, but I don't like cold, light and shade. I don't have high requirements for soil, and I like slightly acidic soil with high dry terrain and rich humus.
