1. Flowering period

This kind of flower blooms relatively late, but it blooms for a long time. It usually begins to bloom around October, and basically ends in May of the next year. The flowering period is more prosperous from January to March. However, the nature of different camellia varieties is different, and the flowering time is not accurate. Some open earlier, and some will open late for a long time. Generally speaking, the flowering period can be as long as seven or eight months. The flowering period is so long that it naturally needs careful cultivation

2. Maintenance skills

Camellia likes a semi shady place and cannot be exposed to direct sunlight. Special attention should be paid to cultivating carefully in summer. It is best to control the temperature at about 20 degrees Celsius. Its root system depends on acidic soil. It should also choose mountain loam with rich organic matter, soft soil and good air permeability for cultivation

When Camellia bud, in order to ensure its normal flowering, it is necessary to appropriately increase the illumination. Proper application of fertilizer containing phosphorus is conducive to the expansion of flower buds. It is appropriate to apply it every seven days, but nitrogen fertilizer must not be applied, otherwise a large number of buds will fall. In this process, it is necessary to spray water on the leaves regularly, which can not only remove dust, but also increase humidity. In addition, the newly sprouted bud is very delicate, so the position of the flowerpot should not be moved often

When it blooms, it can no longer apply flower fertilizer, and the nutrients can not be provided by foreign things, so it is necessary to make the leaves more photosynthetic in order to meet the needs of flowering. It is best to put it on the balcony or window with good ventilation, which can prolong the lighting time. At the same time, the sick dead branches and lower branches should be cut in time to prevent unnecessary consumption of nutrients and the spread of bacteria. Special attention should also be paid to the prevention and control of diseases during flowering, especially anthrax. If yellow spots appear on the leaf surface, drugs should be purchased and sprayed in time
