Below is a comprehensive introduction to its cultivation method and precautions. Friends who like camellia can focus on it.

Farming methods

1. Pay attention to the temperature

Camellia is an ornamental plant that is neither cold-resistant nor heat-resistant. When cultivating it, you must pay attention to the temperature conditions. It will only grow vigorously when the outside temperature is between 18 and 25 degrees. The indoor temperature should not be too high or too low, otherwise it will affect its growth. Especially after entering winter, the indoor temperature must be above three degrees. If the room temperature is below zero, the camellia will be frostbitten.

2. Lighting conditions

Camellia is a plant that loves light, so you must pay attention to the lighting conditions when growing it. In spring and autumn, the sunlight is relatively mild, so you can place it in a sunny environment. But after summer, the sunlight is very strong, so camellia must not be placed under strong light, otherwise the leaves will be injured and it will die.

3. Fertilizer and water management

Camellia is a fertilizer-loving plant. When you are checking the house, you must pay attention to timely topdressing. At the beginning, you can add phosphorus and potassium fertilizers to its potting soil. Especially in the six months after it blooms, you must topdress 3 to 4 times, and topdress once in winter, so that its flowers will be more beautiful and the flowering period will be longer. Camellia is a plant that likes a humid environment. It is necessary to water it in time and not let the potting soil dry out. Especially in spring, you need to water it more, which is conducive to the growth of new buds of camellia.

Precautions

When growing camellia, you must pay attention to timely pruning. If you fail to do so, it will affect the appearance of the flower arrangement and cause some diseases. When pruning, you must promptly cut off all the dead branches, weak branches and synapses. In addition, after the camellia enters the flowering period, the flower buds must also be arranged. Once the flower buds are too dense, they must be combed. After the flowers wither, they must be removed in time. This can reduce the camellia's consumption of nutrients.
