How to Make Magnolias Bloom for Christmas

Flowering period of Magnolia

It usually takes about a month for this flower to bloom and wither. Under natural conditions, it first blooms in February. The flower shape is very similar to that of white magnolia, but the color is different. The outer side of their flowers is pink and the inner side is white, which adds a bit of charm to it. The petals are not arranged neatly, and each flower has its own characteristics, but when put together they naturally form a unified state. The translucent pink petals are like a girl's skirt, which adds a bit of playfulness to the whole. It is even more pleasing to the eye when matched with the surrounding leaves, and there is a harmonious beauty as a whole.

Factors affecting flowering period: growing area

This flower is extremely sensitive to temperature changes. Even if the variety is exactly the same, it may bloom four or five months earlier when planted in the south than in the north. Even if planted in the same area, the difference in flowering time each year may be quite large. However, they also have a certain resistance to low temperatures and can grow safely even at -21℃. So on the whole, this flower is more suitable for growing in a southerly location. It is a good choice whether it is used for viewing or making ointment.

Factors affecting flowering period: pest and disease control

Even if you choose a good planting location, it does not mean that it will bloom within the required time period. The maintenance process is also very important. There are many diseases that may occur during this period, but the most common one is root rot. This is mainly because the roots are located in a damp position for a long time, and the roots cannot breathe, resulting in root rot. If not handled in time, it can easily lead to the death of the entire plant. When there is too much rain, it is important to drain the water in time so that they can grow better.
