Farming methods

Watering

The Chinese parviflora is a succulent plant, very cold-resistant and does not require too much water. It is not advisable to water it too much at normal times. Do not water it unless the soil is dry. Remember to make sure it is completely dry before watering. During the hot summer season, be careful not to water the plants too hard after being exposed to the sun, as this will cause leaves to fall. When the summer temperature is above 30℃, the plants are in a dormant or semi-dormant state, so watering should be controlled.

soil

The soil in the pot of the Chinese hollyhock tree needs to be changed every 1-2 years, mainly with new and loose sandy loam. When the bachelor tree grows to a certain period of time, the potting soil should also be replaced.

illumination

The Chinese hollyhock tree is drought-resistant, salt-resistant, wind-resistant, and barren-resistant, and prefers plenty of sunlight. The key to flowering is to place it in full sun year-round, but out of direct sunlight.

Fertilization

The shrub enters a dormant period in winter, so stop fertilizing. If the temperature is low, root rot is likely to occur when fertilizing. During the growing season, apply fermented dilute liquid fertilizer containing nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium once every 7-10 days. Avoid applying too concentrated fertilizer.

Prevention of pests and diseases

The Chinese hollyhock tree is easily harmed by charcoal disease and leaf spot disease, and needs to be sprayed with methyl tobacillus wettable powder. If the indoor ventilation is poor, the stems and leaves of the Chinese hollyhock tree are easily damaged by scale insects and need to be sprayed with omethoate emulsion. Please refer to the drug instructions for details. Remember not to water too much, as this can easily cause root rot, causing the leaves to turn yellow or even have gray mold spots, and in severe cases they will rot. We must pay attention to ventilation and drainage. When the disease is serious, you can spray carbendazim powder.

prune

Pruning of the shrub is usually done when transplanting or repotting. Transplanting is to trim and tidy up the main roots that are too long or injured. When repotting, the old roots, rotten roots and overly dense roots should be properly thinned out.
