How to grow double-petal jasmine

Double-petal jasmine is the favorite of many flower lovers. They usually like to grow it at home, but they don't have a comprehensive understanding of its cultivation methods, which makes it difficult for them to grow double-petal jasmine well. What can they do? How can they grow double-petal jasmine well? I will share its cultivation techniques with you later.

1. Breeding environment

When growing double-petal jasmine, you must choose a warm, humid and well-ventilated environment, and provide it with sufficient sunlight. Only in this way can the branches of the double-petal jasmine be strong, the leaves be dark green, and the number of flowers will be relatively large. If there is no sunlight and the environmental conditions are not good, the double-petal jasmine will grow slowly and the number of flowers will be very small.

2. Culture soil

Suitable culture soil is one of the important conditions for cultivating double-petal jasmine. It likes sandy or semi-sandy fertile soil, and the soil is preferably slightly acidic. Usually, you can use garden soil, add leaf mold, and then add river sand and other materials to prepare the culture soil. During the cultivation period, ferrous sulfate should also be applied to keep the nutrient soil slightly acidic.

3. Adequate fertilization

Double jasmine is a fertilizer-loving plant, especially during its peak growing season and before and after flowering. Fertilizers can be organic fertilizers and phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. Under normal circumstances, double jasmine should be fertilized twice a month. Before it enters the flowering period, more phosphorus and potassium fertilizers can be applied, which can effectively increase the number of flowers.

4. Timely pruning

Double jasmine should be pruned in time during the cultivation period. It grows very fast in the summer, so you can prune it in time after its branches exceed 15 cm. In addition, the flower branches should be cut off after the double jasmine flowers wither. This can reduce its consumption of nutrients and promote the growth of new branches, making the flower branches of double jasmine denser and more blooming. In addition, in autumn, the old, dead and diseased branches of double jasmine should be cut off in time, which will be very beneficial to its growth next year.
