Introduction to Planting Camellia TreesCamellia trees prefer cold and humid environments, are not resistant to high temperatures, have a wide adaptability to soil, but are more suitable for loose and moist sandy soil. They are not shade-tolerant and are distributed in some mountainous areas in a few provinces and counties in southern my country. The best planting time is from June to August. Common varieties include: ordinary oil tea, white flower Nanshan tea, multi-toothed red camellia, small yellow flower camellia, etc. Camellia tree planting results after several yearsFrom seedling to fruiting camellia tree, seedlings need 7-8 years of care to bear fruit, cuttings need 2-3 years of care before they can bloom, and grafted seedlings need 2 years to bloom. Grafted camellia tree blooms and bears fruitCamellia trees are suitable for grafting in spring, from May to June. The survival rate will be highest if the grafting is done when the new shoots are semi-hardened. They will sprout soon after grafting and will generally bloom and bear fruit in two years. Potted camellia tree with fruitsYou should choose camellias that grow vigorously and are free of diseases and pests. It is best to choose leaves without yellow leaves, burnt edges, insect eggs, or disease spots, and with smooth trunks and branches and intact outer skin for potting. They usually bloom and bear fruit in 7-8 years. Why doesn't the camellia tree bear fruit?The reason why a camellia tree does not bear fruit may be that its vegetative growth is too vigorous, resulting in only branches and leaves growing, making it difficult to bloom and bear fruit. You can repot it, prune the roots, control its vegetative growth, and apply basal fertilizer at the bottom of the pot to adjust the pH value of the soil. Key points for planting camellia treesBefore planting camellia trees, you need to choose a suitable plot of land. It is best to choose a sloping land that is conducive to drainage and irrigation. The soil should be sandy soil with good drainage. More than 20 days before spring sowing, you can soak the seeds in clean water for 2-3 days, germinate on the sand bed for about 20 days, and then sow them in the nursery. When planting camellia trees, the spacing between plants should be controlled, and the plant spacing should be 10-20 cm. After sowing, cover them with a thin layer of soil to suppress them. When the seedlings grow to 10 cm high, nitrogen fertilizer needs to be applied once. When about 3 leaves grow, the main root needs to be cut obliquely to a depth of 10 cm. |
