Nowadays, many flower lovers like to play with bonsai. Winter jasmine is a flower that blooms earlier in early spring every year. As long as the indoor temperature is suitable and the light is sufficient in winter and spring, the flower buds will open one after another from the first month, which is very beautiful, just like spring. Spring Festival maintenance in flowering period is also very important. If it is not properly maintained, it will easily cause flowers to wither prematurely and shorten the flowering period, which will affect normal viewing. The following introduces the maintenance of the bonsai of winter jasmine after flowering.

First, how to promote flowers before the Spring Festival?

After beginning of spring, as long as the indoor Spring Festival is basically covered with flower buds, if it has not yet blossomed, the indoor temperature can be controlled above 65438 05℃, and the potted plants can be moved to a sunny environment to fully receive the light, keep the soil slightly wet and avoid excessive water shortage.

In addition, you can also add some nutrients, that is, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, which is poured once a week with dilute potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution, and generally it will bloom twice.

Second, how to maintain the Spring Festival?

1, reduce watering

After the spring blossoms, it is necessary to control the watering, and not to water it too often, otherwise the soil in the basin will be too wet, and the roots will suffocate and lack oxygen, leading to rot, flowers and buds. Therefore, watering should be appropriately reduced during the flowering period, and watering should be done every time the topsoil of the basin soil is dry, so that the flowering period can be longer.

2. Stop fertilizing

Some flower lovers fertilize plants when they bloom in order to maintain a longer flowering period. Fertilizing it at flowering stage can't actually prolong flowering stage. No matter applying phosphorus, potassium fertilizer or nitrogen fertilizer, it can only accelerate the maturity and withering of flowers and make plants enter the stage of growing branches and leaves faster. So when the flower buds of plants are open, don't fertilize and water them too much.

3. Low temperature

If you want to make the flowering viewing period of the Spring Festival longer, you can lower the ambient temperature, that is, put it in an environment with a temperature of 8 ~ 10℃, so that its flowering speed will slow down and the flowers will be preserved for a longer time.

Step 4 dim the light

In addition to lowering the temperature, the flowering period can be prolonged by dimming. As we all know, in order to promote plants to bloom as soon as possible and increase the light, plants should be moved to an environment without sunlight or only a little astigmatism for maintenance after flowering, so that flowers will slow down without photosynthesis.

Third, post-flowering management.

1, pruning

After the flowering period, the Spring Festival bonsai began to enter the growth period. At this time, you can trim and reshape at one time, remove or truncate some branches that are too messy and too long to affect the plant shape, reduce nutrient consumption and keep the shape beautiful.

Step 2 change the pot

If you don't change pots for a long time, the nutrients in the pot soil are scarce and hardening begins to appear. After flowering, the plants can be fully replaced with loose and fertile culture soil, and after pruning the messy roots, they can be potted again for maintenance.

It's the full bloom of the Spring Festival. If you want it to bloom for a long time, you can follow these methods to make the Spring Festival at home bloom more beautifully and enjoy it for a long time.
