Silver osmanthus is a relatively precious variety of osmanthus. It has a strong and attractive fragrance. It is a fine product among home potted plants and a favorite of many flower growers. However, many people cannot grow osmanthus well in the garden. They either do not bloom or often die. So how should silver osmanthus be cultivated? I will write down the cultivation methods and precautions of silver osmanthus and share them with you later.

Cultivation method of silver osmanthus

Silver osmanthus likes slightly acidic soil rich in humus, and it likes plenty of sunlight and a warm environment. It is resistant to high temperatures but not cold. When the osmanthus is in the growing season, it should be placed in a sunny and sheltered place for maintenance. It should be given more than ten hours of sufficient sunlight every day. Only when the outside temperature exceeds 30 degrees can it bloom.

Precautions for cultivating silver osmanthus

1. Environment

When raising silver osmanthus, you must pay attention to the choice of environment, because Osmanthus fragrans is an ornamental plant that likes a clean environment. It is afraid of chlorine and air pollution. If it is placed in an unclean environment, it will grow poorly, the leaves will be small, and it will be difficult to bloom.

2. Fertilizer and water management

Fertilizer and water management is very important when cultivating salt osmanthus. It should be watered every 2 to 3 days in spring every year. If the temperature is too high, the watering frequency should be increased to once a day. However, the amount of watering should be reduced after it enters the flowering period to prevent the flowers from falling off. Salt osmanthus is a fertilizer-loving plant. It should be top-dressed in time during normal cultivation. It should be top-dressed every half a month from April to May every year, and once every 7 to 10 days from June to July. It will grow luxuriantly and bloom many and fragrant flowers.
