Growth Habits

Before introducing the cultivation methods of this flower, we must first talk about their growth habits. This plant originally grew in jungles on hillside, beside streams, waterside and other places, at an altitude of more than 900 meters. Planting in the courtyard of our homes is now more common. They like sunshine, warm places, and places with enough moisture and sunlight. Can tolerate a little shade.

Planting location

It is best to Plant them in a sunny spot. Although it is mentioned above that they are somewhat shade-tolerant, if they are placed in a location with more shade for a long time, their growth will be weakened and they will not bloom much. Therefore, the location you must choose must have better drainage capabilities, and the terrain cannot be too low. If the ground is too low, it can easily lead to water accumulation, and if not treated in time, the entire plant can easily die.

Water

Just planted After that, you can choose to water them every ten days, and loosen the soil after each watering to ensure their growth. In North China, the best time for them to grow is from April to June. During this period, they must be watered two or three times a month, and they must be watered thoroughly each time. Pay attention to drainage issues in July, and water enough at once before winter begins in November.

Pruning

If it has grown When the seedlings are three or four years old, they need to be pruned. Cut them off 30cm above the ground so that the flowers can bloom better in the second year. In spring, cut off weak branches and dry branches so that the remaining ones can grow better. After flowering, cut off the remaining flower spikes so that the flowers will bloom better the next year.
