1. Can it be planted outdoors?

Northern osmanthus can be grown outdoors. It is cold-resistant and can withstand temperatures as low as minus 13 degrees Celsius. However, if the temperature in the area is within the range that it cannot bear for a long time, it is necessary to keep warm in time and take temperature control measures. It is recommended to manage potted plants to avoid frostbite. In addition, there are many varieties, some of which are highly cold-resistant. If planted in the northern region, it is recommended to choose cold-resistant varieties, such as late silver osmanthus, fast-growing golden osmanthus, cinnabar red osmanthus, etc.

1. Can it be planted outdoors?

Winter in the north is relatively cold, but osmanthus is also cold-resistant and can tolerate temperatures as low as minus 13 degrees, so it can be grown. However, if the temperature in the area is below minus 13 degrees for a long time, you should pay attention to taking measures to keep warm. It is recommended to manage potted plants to avoid frostbite. In addition, there are many varieties, so choose one with strong cold resistance. For example, late silver osmanthus, fast-growing golden osmanthus, cinnabar osmanthus, etc. Do not plant four-season osmanthus because it has poor cold tolerance and is difficult to manage.

2. How to spend the winter

1 . Strictly control water: It has stopped growing in winter and the temperature is low, so the amount of water must be controlled. If you water too much, the soil will freeze easily. You don’t need to water until the soil is dry. Water less when it is dry, and the water temperature should be close to the temperature of the soil to avoid freezing.

2. Get more sun: The light in winter is relatively mild. It can be placed in a bright place and let it bask in the sun all day long, which will be more beneficial to its winter. Low temperatures combined with a cool environment can easily cause frostbite.

3. Stop fertilizing: Fertilize once before winter , just use decomposed organic fertilizer, which can warm the roots and avoid root frostbite. However, you need to stop fertilizing after winter. No fertilizer is needed at this time. Even if it is applied, it cannot be absorbed. Instead, it will burn the roots, causing failure to survive the winter and causing the plant to die easily.
