Is camellia afraid of the sun?

1. Are you afraid of the sun?

It can bask in the sun, but it is afraid of strong light. That is to say, it can accept some weak light, and if the light is too strong, it needs shade. It is a semi-shade plant, so it needs appropriate light during its growth period, but not excessive exposure to the sun.

The plants can be exposed to the sun in spring, autumn and winter. However, they also need to be hydrated while exposed to the sun. If the humidity is too low, it will be detrimental to the growth of the plants. In summer, try to place it in a bright place, not in a place that is too dark or where the sun is too strong.

2. Other maintenance

1. Watering: Do not water too much during the maintenance period. Once water accumulates, it will be very detrimental to its root system. Do not pour water on the flowers, keep the soil sufficiently moist, and water less in rainy weather.

2. Fertilization: It likes fertilizer. In spring, it is generally fertilized once every half a month, and some phosphorus and potassium fertilizers can be applied in summer. Before it blooms, you should also apply some phosphorus and potassium fertilizers to promote its flowering.

3. Pruning: You can prune according to your own preferences. Generally, you should cut off the dense, dry and crossed branches.
