Winter management of potted honeysuckle, do leaves fall in winter?

1. Winter management

1. Reduce watering: Although it has strong cold resistance, its growth rate will slow down in winter, so reduce the amount of water. Usually water the plant once every 20-30 days. Do not let the soil become too dry, but also do not allow water to accumulate. Control the amount of water.

2. Adequate light: It likes light very much, and the light in winter is very mild, so it should be placed in a place with good light. It is best to let it get sun all day. This will encourage it to accumulate more nutrients, which is beneficial for wintering and later growth.

3. Repotting in time: Repotting should be done every two years. Repotting should be done before winter. Pay attention to adding basal fertilizer and pruning the roots so that it can absorb more nutrients, improve its cold resistance, and is also beneficial for wintering.

4. Suitable temperature: Although it is cold-resistant, it is recommended to move it indoors if planted in the northern region, but it should not be placed in a heated room, otherwise it will resume growth in a high temperature environment and affect the later flowering.

2. Leaves do not fall in winter

It is an evergreen plant with leaves that remain emerald green all year round and do not fall off in winter. It has strong cold resistance and can withstand temperatures as low as minus 30 degrees Celsius. Don't worry in the southern regions, you can just put it outdoors and it will survive the winter. However, if it is planted in the northern region, it is normal to have a small amount of leaf fall in winter. Pay attention to the winter maintenance methods so that it can bloom and grow normally in the spring of the following year.
