2. Common flower fertilization methods

There is no way to generalize whether plants need fertilization in winter. It depends on different plants. Some plants that bloom in winter need nutrients to grow, so they are still applied regularly. Some evergreen plants can be fertilized once a month or one and a half months. However, if the plants enter the dormant or semi-dormant period in winter, do not apply any more.

1. Can I apply fertilizer?

Whether plants need to be fertilized in winter depends on different plants. It does not mean that fertilization is not required as misinformed. Like some plants that bloom in winter, nutrients are still needed to be added regularly in winter because the opening of the flowers consumes nutrients and requires nutrients for growth. For some plants whose leaves remain green in winter, some compound fertilizers can also be applied to ensure the ornamental value of the leaves. However, in winter, plants that have entered the dormant or semi-dormant period will basically stop their growth activities and no longer need to fertilize.

2. Common flower fertilization methods

For ornamental leaves such as pothos and spider plants, the cycle can be extended in winter, and fertilizers can be applied once a month or one and a half months to meet the growth requirements. Plants that bloom in winter, such as camellias, plum blossoms, etc., still need to be applied regularly to ensure that the flowers bloom. Begonia flowers have entered the dormant period in winter and no longer need nutrients. You can wait until the spring of the next year before adding nutrients.
