Camellia transplanting time and method, which season has the highest survival rate?

Camellia transplanting must also follow the growth habits of the plant. The temperature in winter is too low, which is not conducive to the growth of the plant, and the branches and leaves are easily frostbitten. After the camellia blooms and before new buds are produced, transplanting at this time will not affect the growth of the plant.

Camellia transplanting time

Camellia can be transplanted in autumn or in spring because the temperature in these two seasons is more suitable. It will have a stronger growth ability, and the nutrients accumulated for half a year can meet its needs, allowing it to quickly adapt to the new environment and thus survive more easily.

Camellia transplanting technology

1. It is best to transplant camellia with the soil ball, because this can protect its root system to the greatest extent. If the soil quality is poor, bare-root transplanting is also possible, but it is best to use loose, fertile, well-ventilated acidic soil.

2. Camellia can be properly pruned after transplanting. Cut off the opened buds and dead leaves, trim the rotten roots, and then soak it in a solution of carbendazim before potting it.

Camellia transplant management

Transplanted camellia needs to be kept out of the shade during the high temperatures in summer, but it cannot be deprived of sunlight for a long time, otherwise insufficient light will cause it to grow slowly. The temperature for transplanting should be above 15 degrees. If the temperature is relatively low, it is necessary to do a good job of insulation.
