1. Appearance characteristics1. Leaves: Rhododendron has many branches, and the leaves are also clustered at the ends of the branches. Its leaves are leathery, about 1.5-5cm long, and are ovate, obovate or elliptical-ovate. The leaves are dark green with small teeth on the edges and have petioles 2-6mm long. 2. Flowers: Rhododendrons bloom in April and May. The flowers are usually clustered in 2-3 at the top of the branches, with pedicels 8mm long. The corolla is bright red, rose red, or dark red, and is broad funnel-shaped. 3. Fruit: Its capsule is very small, only about 1 cm long and obovate in shape. 2. Growth EnvironmentRhododendron likes to grow in a relatively cool environment and is very afraid of hot weather, so it is best to keep the temperature at 12-25℃ during the cultivation period. It likes a humid growing environment, so it should be watered in time and the indoor ventilation should be guaranteed. The ventilation problem can be ignored when growing it outdoors. However, when growing it outdoors, you should pay attention to shading. Relatively speaking, a semi-shady environment is more suitable for its growth, so shading is necessary especially in summer. |
