How to care for five-color plum in winter

Key points for winter care of five-color plum

The five-color plum is a tropical plant, so it prefers a warm and humid environment. The five-color plum is not cold-resistant, so if you plant it in the north, you must pay attention to the maintenance of the five-color plum in winter so that the five-color plum can survive the winter smoothly.

It is best to transplant the five-color plum we grow to a warmer indoor place in winter, and place the potted five-color plum in a sunny place indoors. In winter, the room where the five-color plum is planted should maintain a temperature above 15 degrees. If this temperature is maintained, the five-color plum can continue to grow and bloom. If this temperature can be maintained, it can be watered and fertilized normally, and appropriate pruning should be carried out.

Hibernation maintenance of five-color plum

Since the five-color plum is a tropical plant, it is very difficult for it to survive in winter. If the temperature is too low, it may even cause the death of the five-color plum.

Generally speaking, as long as the temperature is maintained above 8°C, the five-color plum can safely survive the winter. However, in winter, if the temperature of the five-color plum cannot reach above 15 degrees, it will not be able to continue to grow. At this time, the five-color plum will enter a dormant state. In this state, the five-color plum does not need to be fertilized, and the watering should be less than in other seasons. Wait until the spring of the following year when the weather warms up, then you can prune the branches and leaves and cut off dead and diseased branches.
