Time

June snow transplantation can be done at any time of the year, but March and April in spring are best.

Preparation

The best soil for potting is loam rich in humus, loose and breathable, and well-drained. Generally, it can be prepared with 4 parts of decomposed cow dung, 1 part of decomposed cake fertilizer, 4 parts of garden soil, and 1 part of coal ash.

It is best for potted plants to have no dead or diseased leaves, good growth, short and stocky plant shape, and no pests or diseases.

Maintenance

After transplanting into the pot, it should be placed in a semi-shady place and resume normal maintenance after a week.

In the hot and dry season of summer, spray water on the leaves in the morning and evening to cool down and increase the air humidity to facilitate their growth and flowering. At the same time, avoid direct sunlight. It is best to let the June snow absorb scattered light.

Pay attention to heat preservation in winter. In East China, you can safely survive the winter by placing it indoors at a temperature above 5℃.

Pour 1% vinegar water once every half month to avoid soil alkalization and plant yellowing.

During the growing season of June Snow, apply a thin liquid fertilizer every 10 days or so.

Because June Snow has a strong growth ability and often sprouts branches from its roots, it must be pruned frequently to maintain its beauty.

Note Matters

Just after transplanting, watering should be done with tap water that has been exposed to sunlight to maintain the temperature of the water.

June Snow is drought-tolerant, but not wet-tolerant, so watering should follow the principle of seeing dryness and wetness, and never watering when it is dry. Avoid water accumulation in the pot during the rainy season.

In addition to soil fertilization, root topdressing is also required frequently, and the leaves are sprayed with 1% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution to adjust the pH and increase plant nutrition.

In early spring, it is necessary to move Junexue from indoors to outdoors. At this time, short pruning and topping are needed to maintain the plumpness of the plant. It is best to repot it once.
