First, about the environment of Longsha gems:
Longsha likes rooting, so if it is a seedling, it needs a flowerpot deep enough to help its roots grow and absorb nutrients, and the size of the flowerpot should be switched with the growth of seedlings, bigger and deeper. If the flowerpot is not deep enough, it will greatly affect the normal growth of flower seedlings and the formation of flower buds. Longsha likes sunshine. It is placed in sunny places or outdoors to receive sunshine. The longer the sunshine time, the faster the growth rate of Longsha. Longsha must have enough water during the growth period, but watering can be reduced during the winter dormancy period. Longsha also likes loose and fertile soil. The soil should be breathable, water-retaining and fertilizer-stable.
Second, about the fertilization of Longsha gems:
Generally, flowering plants are very nutrient-consuming, so sufficient base fertilizer should be applied when planting, and topdressing can be done regularly during the growth period. After entering the dormant period in winter, the base fertilizer can be buried once, and then no fertilization is needed during the whole dormant period.
Third, about protection and management:
1. Selection of location. Longsha gems like sunshine, so they should be placed outdoors with plenty of sunshine. Remember not to put it in a half-sunny or half-cloudy room, which will affect the growth of Longsha gems.
2. water and moisturize. Longsha gems need a lot of water when they are not dormant, so they can be watered a lot in spring, summer and autumn. You can reduce the number of watering in winter.
3. plastic trimming. The weather turns cold in late autumn, and in winter, the gems of Longsha will gradually shed their leaves and enter a dormant period. The bare branches of Longsha gems are the best time for shaping and pruning. Cut off twigs, weak branches and diseased branches, leaving healthy main branches and old branches, and then remove the top of main flower branches to promote the growth and flowering of side branches.
