When to plant camelliaCamellia can be sown in April in spring and October in autumn. The temperature at this time is just right, which is conducive to its later growth and development. Cuttings are chosen in June and July, and they can be transplanted in September and October of the same year. Cuttings can also be taken in August and September. When planting, pay attention to preparing slightly acidic loam for it, and ensure air permeability and drainage. How to plant camelliaCamellia can be propagated both sexually and asexually. Cuttings are mostly done in summer and autumn. Cut a branch as a cutting and insert it into the soil. For grafting, use oil tea as the rootstock and semi-lignified branches as scions. Insert them into the incision of the rootstock and tie them up, waiting for the wound to heal. The layering needs to be ring-barked at the top 20 cm, then wrapped with soil and planted after rooting. Camellia planting steps1. It is recommended to plant camellia in a warm time, preferably in late spring or early autumn. The temperature is suitable and the survival rate is higher. The soil tends to harden during the low temperature in winter, which is not conducive to survival and later growth. Therefore, it should not be planted in winter. 2. Camellia likes loose, fertile, well-drained and slightly acidic soil. To meet its soil needs as much as possible, you can mix peat soil, river sand and garden soil, and then add an appropriate amount of base fertilizer to increase nutrients. This way the plant grows vigorously and the flowers bloom more beautifully. 3. After the soil is prepared, the seedlings can be planted in it. No matter which method is used to propagate the seedlings, infection must be avoided. First, pour a small amount of soil into the flowerpot, and then plant the seedlings. Let its roots stretch out. Hold the seedlings with one hand and fill the soil with the other hand. Fill and compact it to ensure that it will not tilt. 4. After planting, water the plant thoroughly in time, and let water flow out from the bottom of the flowerpot. Keep it in a well-ventilated semi-shaded place to keep it moist and warm. It will resume growth in about 15 days, and then slowly increase the light. Do not rush to expose it to the sun, especially strong light, which will burn the plant and affect its recovery. Camellia maintenance and management matters1. Water: When the camellia seedlings are in the stage, they need to be watered in small amounts and multiple times to keep the soil slightly moist. After the plants gradually take shape, you can reduce watering. 2. Temperature: Camellia does not require much attention during planting in spring and autumn. The main things are winter and summer. When the temperature is high in summer and the light intensity is high, it needs to be moved to a cool and ventilated place for maintenance. During the low temperatures in winter, it is best to move it indoors for cultivation, and the minimum temperature must not be lower than 3 degrees. 3. Light: Camellias need to be provided with sufficient light. They will grow well under the sun. If the maintenance environment is dark, it will be difficult for them to bloom. |
