Daphne koreana is a plant with particularly fragrant flowers. The flowers grow in clusters and have a pleasant fragrance. It is very popular among people, and many people have potted plants of it at home. So how can we take care of Daphne odora in summer to have a better summer? Let’s learn more about it below. 1. Move to a cool and ventilated place When growing Daphne koreana in summer, it should no longer be placed in strong light. After the outdoor temperature reaches 30 degrees, it should be moved to a cool and ventilated place, or a location with scattered light for maintenance. At the same time, ventilation should be carried out to prevent the breeding of diseases in the high temperature season. 2. Pay attention to watering The most critical point in caring for Daphne odora in summer is watering. Daphne odora has typical fleshy roots, so you must pay attention to watering. Daphne odora does not need to be watered every day. Watering every day will cause problems with the root system. After shade maintenance, you can wait until the soil 2-3 cm below the surface of the pot soil is dry before watering. Water thoroughly when watering. This can reduce the occurrence of waterlogging and root rot in Daphne odora, which will help Daphne odora survive the summer safely. 3. Apply less fertilizer or no fertilizer It is also very simple to fertilize Daphne koreana in summer. You can apply less fertilizer or no fertilizer, but you cannot apply concentrated fertilizer. You can apply some slow-release fertilizer on the surface of the potting soil in summer. Just sprinkle it directly on the surface of the potting soil. It only needs to be applied once in a summer. When the temperature reaches above 35 degrees, stop fertilizing to prevent root burns. Wait until autumn when growth resumes before applying compound fertilizer . 4. Spray water on leaves to increase humidity "Humidification" refers to air humidity, not soil humidity. The temperature is high in summer, and although the growth of Daphne odora is slow, it does not stop completely. Dry weather can cause leaves to turn yellow and fall off. Spray water on the leaves every morning and evening in a ventilated environment to cool it down while increasing the air humidity it needs. 5. Thinning branches and leaves If the branches and leaves of Daphne koreana are too dense, it will easily cause disease or yellow leaves in summer. Thinning out some of the densely grown branches and leaves inside will increase the permeability of the plant, which will be beneficial to the plant's summer survival. Daphne koreana has a strong ability to sprout new leaves, and will grow new leaves quickly after the temperature drops in autumn. 6. Avoid strong sunlight exposure In the hot summer, when caring for Daphne osmanthus, you must not expose it to strong sunlight. If the light is strong, the leaves will be sunburned, and in severe cases, they will wither directly. Therefore, when the temperature is higher than 30 degrees Celsius, we need to provide shade and cool down, and keep it ventilated. It must not be placed indoors for maintenance. If the indoor ventilation is not good, it is prone to diseases and pests. That’s it |
