Chimonanthus praecox, this kind of flower is fragrant, so many people plant Chimonanthus praecox in the yard. Let the whole yard smell of wintersweet.
The flowering period of Chimonanthus praecox is usually in 1 1 month or March of the following year. No matter how low the temperature is in winter, flowers will still bloom, and the color is yellow, which is a bit like wax, so it will be called wintersweet.
Because Chimonanthus praecox is a kind of plant that still blooms in winter, it is different from other flower plants when it is maintained.
How to maintain wintersweet:
When planting Chimonanthus praecox, water should be poured enough to make the plants feel the sunshine and have sufficient nutrients. Therefore, before planting, fertilization should be sufficient, once every fifteen days or so, to promote the flowering of Chimonanthus praecox. Of course, water doesn't need to be watered often, as long as it can be watered enough in two weeks.
Secondly, wintersweet is relatively frost-resistant, but it is also a bit scary, that is, the wind. In winter, except for the cold, this is the power of the wind. For Chimonanthus praecox, the wind is a nemesis. Therefore, it is best to choose the leeward position when planting, and never face the wind.
Moreover, Chimonanthus praecox is a plant with few branches and leaves in winter. Although there are no branches and leaves, don't think that Chimonanthus praecox has fewer original branches and leaves, so you dare not prune it. In fact, what we prune are vague diseased branches and dead branches. Only by cutting them off can new branches and leaves grow back.
Therefore, if flower friends see the appearance of wintersweet at home, they must trim it in time.
If you want to enjoy plum blossoms at home in winter, you can grow them at home, locally or potted.
