Cultivation methods and precautions of Melaleuca alternifolia

Cultivation methods and precautions of Melaleuca alternifolia

Specific breeding methods:

The most suitable soil:

Loose, permeable, water-retaining and fertile soil will do. Of course, it can survive even in barren and dry soil.

Optimal humidity:

In spring and autumn, the potting soil should be kept in a semi-moist state. In summer, the amount of watering should be increased, and water should be sprayed frequently around it, on the soil and branches. This can reduce water consumption and keep the environment moist, which is very beneficial to the growth of plants, especially spraying water on the branches and leaves, which is very beneficial to the newly planted Melaleuca alternifolia and can increase its survival rate.

Optimum temperature:

It is very resistant to high temperatures and can survive even when the temperature rises to 45 degrees, but the optimal growth temperature is around 25 degrees. It can tolerate temperatures of minus 5 degrees in winter. It cannot survive the winter indoors in the north, but if it is in the south, it can do some simple cold-proofing and survive the winter safely outdoors.

Optimal lighting:

If it grows in sufficient sunlight, it will be more luxuriant. However, if it grows in semi-shade, although it can still survive, its branches and leaves will be withered.

Note:

In terms of fertilization, when first planting, it should be done once every 15 days, and once a year after it grows up. There is no need to apply too much fertilizer.
