If you want to talk about which kind of flowers bloom most now, it must be Osmanthus fragrans. The light yellow flowers of Osmanthus fragrans hang all over the branches, and the aroma can float ten miles away. I feel comfortable when I smell the fragrance. But it was supposed to be the season of sweet scented osmanthus flowering, but the sweet scented osmanthus in Huahua's home didn't move at all, and I don't know what went wrong. After consulting flower friends, I learned that the maintenance of Osmanthus also needs skills

1. The soil should be suitable

Osmanthus fragrans are usually cultivated in pots at home. At this time, the requirements for soil will be higher. Potted osmanthus generally likes a little acidic soil. We can use ordinary rotten leaf soil for breeding, but it's best to add some sulfur powder to the soil, so as to ensure the acidity of the soil. If the soil is selected correctly, the growth of Osmanthus fragrans will not be a problem

2. Water properly

The growth period of Osmanthus fragrans is concentrated in summer. It likes to grow in a high-temperature and dry environment. Therefore, when watering, it must be appropriate, and do not water too much, resulting in ponding. In particular, pay attention to less watering when the new buds germinate, and less watering when it rains and cloudy. When the high-temperature basin soil is dry in summer, you can add more water. Sweet scented osmanthus is best watered in the morning and evening. At these times, the temperature is low, and the water will naturally penetrate more fully

3. The light should be sufficient

Osmanthus fragrans like to grow in plenty of sunshine, because it used to grow outdoors, so there is no need to worry about the problem of light. When we maintain osmanthus potted plants at home, we must pay attention to give it enough light. Generally, in the seedling stage, the sunlight can be mainly scattered light. In the growing season, if the light is insufficient, there will be fallen leaves and no flowering. Therefore, we must pay attention to the placement of potted plants at home

4. Thin fertilizer should be applied frequently

When potted osmanthus grows, its favorite is organic fertilizer. When the branches just sprout in spring, we should pay attention to the application of thin fertilizer and water containing nitrogen frequently, so that the early development will be good and the later growth will be prosperous. Applying compound fertilizer in summer can accelerate the growth of flowers and seedlings and help osmanthus blossom

5. The branches should be pruned often

We all know that pruning branches can make flower plants grow more vigorous, and the same is true of Osmanthus fragrans. Generally, the pruning of potted Osmanthus fragrans branches will be concentrated in spring and autumn. The diseased branches and rotten branches will be pruned in spring, and the overly long branches will be pruned in autumn, which can ensure that the branches receive nutrients evenly and grow faster

If your sweet scented osmanthus doesn't bloom in golden autumn, you can consider whether there are problems in these five aspects. If there is a better way to promote the flowering of Osmanthus fragrans, leave a message in the comment area and share it with Huahua
