One or two months before flowering, water needs to be controlled appropriately and wait until the soil is dry before watering. This will facilitate the formation of flower buds.

1. How to bloom

1. Suitable temperature: Molania likes warm climate and is more afraid of cold. If you want it to bloom, the temperature must be suitable. Usually it should be kept at around 25℃, and the temperature difference between day and night is preferably 10℃, which can promote flower opening. Since its flowering period is in winter, care must be taken to keep the plant warm to prevent the plant from freezing and causing flower drop.

2. Suitable light: Mulberry flowers need sufficient light. , but if exposed to strong light, the leaves are easily sunburned, which is also not conducive to the growth of the plant. Therefore, let it bask in the sun when the light is soft.

4. Supplementary nutrients: Mulch flowers need to consume nutrients when they bloom. Especially during the pregnancy bud period, if nutrients are insufficient, bud drop will easily occur. Usually, phosphate fertilizer is added every 20 days during the growth period, which can promote flowering. You can also apply a little organic fertilizer during the flowering period, but it must be fully decomposed before use.

2. Flowering period maintenance
