If you want to plant viable plum blossom seedlings, you must choose strong growing seedlings, and those that are more than 3 years old must be filled with soil balls. Mix garden soil, humus and mountain mud to prepare nutrient soil, which is more suitable for the growth of seedlings. After choosing a place, dig a hole, place the sapling upright in the hole, fill it with nutrient soil and compact it. After filling, lift the sapling to bring its roots into closer contact with the soil, and then water it thoroughly. Subsequently, control the amount of water and fertilizer, do not water too much, and fertilize three times a year.

Planting Finally, proper water control and fertilization are required. Watering should not be excessive to avoid root flooding. Fertilize three times a year. Fertilize before winter to improve cold resistance, fertilize after new plants stop growing to promote flower bud differentiation, and fertilize before flowering to promote flowering. In addition, it is necessary to prune appropriately to control the height of the plant, and cut off overly dense branches to increase internal light.
