How to Make Garlic Vine Bloom for Christmas

1. Selection of potting soil

Generally, garlic vines must be placed in a sunny place. If they are potted, we can use climbing or direct hanging methods. This way, they will look better when they bloom. So if you want them to bloom and look beautiful, you need to choose some more suitable flower pots or hanging pots. In terms of soil, we can also choose some loose, fertile acidic soil, so that it can bloom during Christmas without being affected.

2. Suitable light and temperature

Garlic vine prefers places with plenty of sunlight and a relatively warm climate. If you want it to have enough light, you need to let it enjoy sunshine all day long, especially in winter, light will be more important. Otherwise, it will directly affect its flowering at Christmas. Even if it blooms, it will not be particularly beautiful and there will not be too many flowers. In addition, it is very afraid of cold. If the temperature is too low in winter, it will stop growing. Before Christmas in winter, the temperature must be maintained above 5 degrees. If the temperature is too low, it may suffer frost damage.

3. Appropriate amount of watering and fertilization

Watering should be adjusted according to its environment. Generally in winter, the temperature is relatively low, so the amount of water needed is very little. Since it has stopped growing at this time, you must water it less often, basically once every 3 to 4 days. If you water it, you should do it when the temperature is high during the day so that it will not easily suffer from frost damage. In addition, when fertilizing in winter, you should use some more natural organic fertilizers, and you should also control the amount of fertilizer before Christmas. At this time, the growth will be very slow. They do not need a lot of nutrients themselves, and they can also meet the conditions for flowering.
