Cultivation method of bonsai Ligustrum microphylla

1. Place with sufficient sunlight

Its growth requires the support of light, and it is usually placed in a sunny place. In summer, it needs proper shade and should not be exposed to the scorching sun, which can easily cause damage to the plant. Increase the lighting time in winter. The temperature in the south is higher, so it can be placed outside for maintenance, but be careful to avoid wind. In the north, it can be moved to a sunny place indoors.

2. Proper watering

It is suitable for growth in humid conditions, and appropriate water should be applied according to the season. In summer, because the temperature is high, the water demand is greater, so water should be applied once in the morning and evening, and sprayed with water, so that the leaves can maintain bright colors. It enters a dormant period in winter, so try not to apply water.

3. Fertilizer application

The requirements for fertilizer are not very strict. It grows faster in spring and autumn every year, and applying nutrients 1-2 times each year is enough to meet the growth needs.

4. Soil selection

Air permeability and drainage need to be good, but nutrients are also indispensable. Garden soil can be mixed with humus soil, which can meet the growth needs and provide a good foundation.

5. Proper pruning

It has a strong germination ability. You can trim the extra yellow branches at any time and pick the buds in time in spring.
