Top dressing should be done in a timely manner during the growing season to ensure sufficient nutrients are absorbed. In addition, winter is the dormant stage, and the temperature should not exceed 10 degrees, otherwise it will affect next year's growth.

1. Soil

1. Soil

If you want Pyracantha bonsai to grow vigorously, you should use soil with good drainage, loose air permeability and slightly acidic soil for maintenance. You can use humus soil and garden soil mixed with an appropriate amount of cinders. To maintain, the roots can better absorb nutrients and water, which is beneficial to growth. In addition, note that the soil should be replaced every two or three years.

2. Light

Its growth requires an environment with sufficient light. It should be placed in a place with good lighting. Only when it is exposed to sufficient sunlight will it grow stronger, the branches can germinate better, and it will bloom more in the later period. However, be careful in summer and shade in time when there is strong light to avoid sunburning the plants.

3. Watering

Water it according to the season. If it is during the spring and autumn growing season, you should water frequently to keep the soil in a slightly moist state. Normally, you should water once every three to five days. When the temperature gets higher in summer, you need to increase the frequency of watering and water it every day. The low temperature in winter will slow down the growth. The amount of watering should be controlled. It is better if the soil is slightly dry.

4. Fertilization

If you want it to grow more vigorously, you must provide it with sufficient nutrients. During the peak growing season, fertilizer should be applied every 10 days. The fertilizer can be decomposed organic fertilizer. When blooming, increase phosphorus and potassium fertilizers to promote brighter flowers and a longer flowering period.

5. Temperature

It is best to provide it with a temperature between 20-30 degrees, which is most conducive to growth. Although it likes a warm environment, it is also cold-resistant and can tolerate temperatures as low as minus 15 degrees Celsius. In winter, it can be placed outdoors for the winter, and the temperature should not exceed 10 degrees, otherwise it will affect dormancy and be detrimental to the growth of the coming year.
