How to repot purple-leaf plum

Preparation for repotting purple-leaf plum

When cultivating purple-leaf plum, reasonable and appropriate maintenance methods can make the purple-leaf plum grow quickly and grow taller soon. When the purple-leaf plum grows to a certain height, the plant is very tall and the root system will also grow very tall. At this time, you can repot the purple-leaf plum to allow it to continue growing.

When repotting, you can choose new culture soil. The soil can be garden soil plus slag, or garden soil plus river sand, and mix them in appropriate proportions. Just choose a flowerpot of appropriate size to meet the growth needs of purple-leaf plum and give it sufficient growing space.

How to repot purple-leaf plum

Put the purple-leaf plum flowerpot on the ground. First, you need to remove the pot. You can gently tap the pot with your palm to vibrate the soil and separate it from the pot. Then turn the entire flower pot upside down, hold the plant with your hand, and gently tap the bottom of the flower pot with the other hand to slowly remove the plant from the pot.

After taking out the plant, you can remove some of the old soil by knocking it with your hands, or use tools to peel off the soil.

Put the prepared soil into the flowerpot, put some broken tiles at the bottom of the flowerpot, put a layer of expanded clay on it, put some base fertilizer on it, and then put the soil on it. Spread out the roots of the purple-leaf plum, put it into the flowerpot, and then slowly fill it with soil. When filling the soil, fill it to 2cm from the top of the flower pot. After filling the soil, water it thoroughly, and wait until the purple-leaf plum plant has grown slowly before you can take care of it normally.
