How to grow and bloom Daphne koreana

1. Light : Osmanthus fragrans has a strong adaptability to the growing environment and is relatively cold-resistant. From January to March, it needs to be placed in a place with sufficient light for maintenance. With sufficient sunlight, it will grow better and the flowering period will be longer.

2. Water : Osmanthus fragrans prefers a humid growing environment. It is necessary to control watering during the flowering period. Generally, just keep the soil moist. If water accumulates, it will affect the subsequent flowering and is not conducive to flowering.

3. Fertilizer : Osmanthus fragrans has a relatively large demand for nutrients, especially during the flowering period. It needs to be fertilized in time before flowering. Some organic fertilizer can be applied, which is more beneficial for the formation of flower buds. Top dressing is also needed after flowering.

4. Pruning : After the flowering of Osmanthus fragrans, it needs to be properly pruned. Some branches, leaves and dead flowers should be cut off. This can reduce the consumption of nutrients and is extremely beneficial for future growth.
