How to make five-color plum blossom

During the flowering period of the five-color plum, the soil needs to be kept slightly moist and not too dry, otherwise it will affect flowering. If you don't need to keep seeds after flowering, you can cut off the remaining flowers so that new inflorescences can grow again.

When cultivating the five-color plum, timely top dressing is required. During the growth period, the plant can be fertilized every half a month to allow it to accumulate sufficient nutrients. Especially after flowering, timely top dressing is required to keep the flowers blooming. If you bring it indoors in time in October and keep the temperature above 10℃, it will continue to bloom.

When growing five-color plum, good light must be ensured, because when there is insufficient light, the five-color plum plant will grow too tall and become very thin, with sparse flowers. Maintaining sufficient light can ensure good flowering, so basically, except for the need for shade in midsummer, appropriate light needs to be maintained at the rest of the time.

In fact, the most important thing to make the five-color plum blossom bloom more is pruning. Timely pruning can not only promote the growth of its branches and leaves, but also maintain the beautiful shape of the tree and make it bloom more.

During the growth period of the five-color plum, timely pruning is required to cut off the branches and leaves that affect the shape of the plant. After the five-color plum blooms, the tender branches can be shortened. At the beginning of winter, the plant can be heavily pruned, and the new branches grown that year should be appropriately shortened.
