Periwinkle does not have many soil requirements. You only need to provide it with a relatively fertile soil layer and loam with good drainage properties for cultivation. However, we must pay attention to the phenomenon of clumping in the soil for its cultivation, so the soil of periwinkle needs to be loosened.

The soil that periwinkle likes to be cultivated can be cultivated as long as it is not particularly barren saline-alkali soil or clay soil. Because periwinkle is very tenacious and has high adaptability. But it is better to provide it with relatively fertile soil for maintenance. Under normal circumstances, you can use leaf mold soil, peat soil, sand, garden soil, etc., mixed together before use.

2. Soil Compaction

1. Reasons for hardening: Because periwinkle is an alkaline flower, it is easy to cause soil hardening, so we need to loosen the soil frequently. Otherwise, it is very likely that watering and fertilizing will not penetrate into the soil due to soil agglomeration. The root system of the plant will be deprived of nutrients, resulting in poor growth of the plant. In severe cases, it may even cause the plant to die.

2. Solution: You can use it at home Mix rice vinegar with water appropriately and irrigate it. This can effectively neutralize the soil components and help the soil not clump, thus making the periwinkle grow more vigorously. Note that the concentration of rice vinegar should not be too high to avoid damaging the root system. It can be used 15 times the amount of water. And when watering, just water it thoroughly, and do not cause waterlogging to prevent the plant roots from rotting.
