Fragrant snow orchid can be moved to the balcony for maintenance at home, which is good for its own growth and flower bud differentiation. Please note that the light in summer is too strong and needs to be blocked at this time. Apply water regularly to ensure growth. During the growth period, it should be dry and wet. Under normal circumstances, water once a week. Add decomposed organic fertilizer when potting, and regular top dressing is required during growth. Provide loose, well-drained soil with rich organic matter, and repot it every 1-2 years.

1. Light supplementation

Fragrant alyssum likes sufficient light. When maintaining alyssum, if it is kept at home, it can be moved to the balcony for maintenance. Only with sufficient light stimulation can we maintain good growth needs, especially during the flower bud differentiation period, more than 8 hours of sunlight can be given. But be careful, the light in summer is too strong, and you need to block it at this time. You can build a curtain to block the strong light and only expose to soft light.

2. Moisture provision

It prefers a humid growth environment. During the growth period, it needs to be dry and wet. Generally, it is watered once a week. When it grows very rapidly, the frequency of watering can be increased appropriately. Watering needs to be reduced after flowering to prevent root rot caused by water accumulation.

3. Apply nutrients

Growth is inseparable from the application of nutrients. Adding decomposed organic fertilizer when potting can improve the fertility of the soil. Regular top dressing is required during growth, and the fertilizer needs to be light.

IV. Soil Preparation

Suitable soil is the basis for growth. It can provide loose, well-drained and organic-rich soil. It will grow better in such soil. Repot every 1-2 years to provide new nutrients to maintain growth.
