This type of plant basically needs fertilizer every season, but different seasons require different types of nutrients. In spring, before the plants germinate, add some nitrogen-containing nutrients to the plants. You can add this fertilizer to the plants once every ten days. After the branches of the plant harden, replace the fertilizer given to the plant with a fertilizer containing phosphorus and potassium, which can help the plant bloom. Give the plants fertilizer containing phosphorus and potassium once every two weeks in autumn to accumulate nutrients in preparation for the arrival of winter.
