The fragrant wood is an evergreen shrub or small tree with a fresh fragrance and unique ornamental value. It is very popular among people, and many people have potted plants in their homes. So how to cultivate and manage the fragrant wood? Let’s learn more about it below. 1. Soil Fragrant wood likes well-drained, breathable, fertile soil, and it would be better if it contains a little humus. For potted plants, you can add leaf mold, sand or perlite to the garden soil. If conditions permit, you can also add a little poultry manure, which will have a better effect. Mix them evenly. This kind of soil is rich in nutrients while ensuring air permeability and drainage. 2. Lighting Fragrant wood likes plenty of sunlight and avoids exposure to the sun. The summer is hot and dry, so you should avoid strong direct sunlight. When the sunlight is strong at noon, you should take shade measures. For indoor potted cultivation, it is usually placed on the balcony or near the window. 3. Moisture Fragrant wood does not need to be watered too frequently. Generally speaking, it can be watered within 3-5 days, and it must be watered thoroughly (wet the bottom). Too much water can easily cause root rot, so the soil also needs to be selected with good drainage and permeability. 4. Fertilization During the seedling stage of the fragrant wood, it does not require too much fertilizer , and try to apply as little fertilizer as possible. When it grows up, apply organic fertilizer 1 to 2 times a month to promote better growth of the plant. Do not apply concentrated fertilizer. In principle, apply thin fertilizers frequently. 5. Pruning After planning the shape and placement of the fragrant wood plant, it should be pruned according to the indoor space and actual environment. Diseased and insect-infested branches, overgrown branches, and overlapping branches should be removed through pruning and thinning. 6. Notes The suitable temperature range for the growth of fragrant wood is 15-25℃. Under high or low temperature conditions, appropriate protective measures should be taken, such as shading or insulation. When growing indoors, choose a place with good air circulation to help reduce the occurrence of diseases and pests. That’s it |
