The climate in spring is unstable. When raising oleander, the temperature should be controlled at about 15 degrees. Do not move it outdoors to the open field as soon as possible. It must also be provided with sufficient light, ensuring that the light time is at least about 5 hours a day. At this time, it grows faster and the main branches need to be pruned to stimulate the growth of side branches.
1. Control the temperature
1. Control the temperature
Oleander will stop growing when the temperature is below five degrees, and will be frostbitten when the temperature is below zero. The temperature in spring is unstable and the climate changes rapidly. Therefore, the maintenance temperature must be reasonably controlled, and the growth temperature should be controlled at about 15 degrees. If it is maintained in the open field, the plants need to be wrapped with straw and other cold-proof materials to avoid frostbite from the spring cold. If conditions permit, indoor maintenance should be continued, and then maintained in the open after the climate stabilizes.
2. Increase light
In spring, you need to add more light to it, firstly to meet its light needs, but also to increase the maintenance temperature. It is a green plant and has a relatively large demand for light. Especially in spring, which is its growth period, it needs enough light to metabolize normally and grow quickly. However, the amount of light does not need to be too much, just five hours a day is enough.
3. Proper pruning
It grows very fast in spring, especially the main branches, and the top advantage will inhibit the growth of side branches. The resulting plant is not very ornamental, so it needs to be pruned. To prune it, usually use "three-prong" pruning. The specific operation is as follows: In early spring, cut off the main branch about half a meter away, and cut off the remaining branches from the ground. After the incision of the main branch is covered with buds, only three healthy buds will be left, and all the other branches will be cut off. Remove them and cultivate these three shoots.
