Many people may have rosemary, after all, it belongs to the tossing-resistant coriander, but some people can't keep it alive, some pots of soil are too dry, or the pots of soil are too wet and rotten.

Rosemary just arrived.

How to maintain rosemary? Here, I simply share some personal maintenance methods for your reference:

Maintenance method of rosemary

First, rosemary needs light.

Rosemary is a light-loving plant and can tolerate semi-shade environment. But it is not suitable for long-term cultivation in dark places. The branches and leaves of rosemary will grow white, and the longer and thinner they are, the more beautiful they will be, and the fragrance emitted by the branches and leaves will also fade.

This pot of rosemary I planted has been exposed since I changed the pot, but it was placed in a semi-shady place when serving, and then moved to the sun for planting. The light in summer is very strong, but rosemary has no yellow leaves, and there is no performance of "resisting" this cultivation environment, so it still insists on being placed in a sunny environment, and finally it will bloom and look forward to the results.

Key points: rosemary should be planted in sunny environment as far as possible, not in a cool place for a long time.

Second, the water requirement of rosemary.

Many people think that rosemary is drought-tolerant. Personally, I think that although rosemary is not a water-loving plant, its pot soil should not be too dry, otherwise the roots of rosemary will be damaged and the leaves will be soft and drooping. However, this does not mean that rosemary should be watered more. If the pot soil is too wet, it will also damage the roots, and the branches and leaves of rosemary will turn yellow and die in severe cases.

Rosemary can be watered according to the principle of "seeing dry and seeing wet". Don't let the pot soil be too dry and the water be too wet.

Third, the nutritional requirements of rosemary.

Although rosemary is a herb, it also needs nutrition. During the growing period (temperature 15℃~30℃), it should be supplemented once a month, and fertilization should be stopped in the high temperature period in summer and when the temperature is lower than 10℃ in winter. In these two periods, rosemary grows slowly and has little demand for nutrients to avoid fertilizer damage.

In order to make rosemary safe to eat, we can make some decomposed fertilizers, such as fermented rice washing water and peel water, and dilute them regularly.

In the process of planting rosemary, light, water and nutrients are very important. What are the two aspects that are easily overlooked in the process of planting rosemary?

1. Picking and pruning of rosemary during its growing period

Some flower friends think that rosemary doesn't grow very big, and they are reluctant to trim it at ordinary times. There are only a few branches, and they grow slowly. They turned to envy others a pot full of rosemary.

It can even be said that the more rosemary is pruned, the more vigorous and faster it grows. But when pruning rosemary, you should pay attention to observation, and don't prune the branches unless you don't want to see the flowers. Rosemary's flower branches are easy to judge. The buds at the top are different from the leaves. It is the bud that can see the oval lavender. Such branches and leaves can be kept for flower viewing. In this way, it is also a great pleasure to harvest and sow seeds in the future and turn one pot into many pots.
