Water and fertilizer

Zhaoshanbai likes acidic soil. If it is planted in the north, it can be matched with soil with pine needles and soil containing humus. Zhaoshanbai has high requirements for water quality and fertilizer concentration. If fertilizing, it is best to choose the appropriate time to apply a small amount and more. Phosphorus fertilizer can be applied once a month before flowers bloom in spring, and nitrogen phosphorus mixed fertilizer needs to be used once or twice after flowering. Phosphate fertilizer needs to be used once or twice in September. A lot of water and fertilizer are needed during growth and flowering. When dormant in summer and winter, it should be properly controlled to avoid rotten roots

Pruning

Zhaoshanbai will generally pick the heart to make the new branches grow faster and make the flowers bloom as soon as possible. If the flowers of the plant are crowded, bud thinning should be carried out to maintain the flower shape and improve the color and quality of the flowers. Too many branches of zhaoshanbai will affect the growth of plants and its beauty and value. It is suggested that flower friends prune them often to keep the plants neat and beautiful. Pruning time is usually after flower withering or autumn. Cut off oblique branches and dead branches to make flowers grow healthily

Flowering period

The flowering period of zhaoshanbai can be controlled artificially. If you want the plant to bloom earlier, you can put it in the greenhouse at a temperature of 20 to 25 degrees. If you want it to open later, you can keep the zhaoshanbai that produces flower buds at a low temperature of 2 to 4 degrees. In this way, if you put it outdoors, it can bloom in two weeks
