soil

Whitehead is suitable for growing in deep and well-drained soil, either sandy soil or clay soil, and adding sufficient base fertilizer.

Light and temperature

The white-crowned crane likes a growing environment with plenty of sunlight, is afraid of strong light, likes coolness, has strong cold resistance, and is more afraid of high temperatures. The suitable temperature for the growth of the white-crowned crane is between 10℃ and 21℃. In summer, when the temperature is high and the sunlight is strong, you can place the potted Pulsatilla in a cool place to provide shade, and sprinkle water around the Pulsatilla plant to lower the temperature and create a small environment suitable for the Pulsatilla. Pay attention to keeping warm in winter and place the potted Pulsatilla indoors where it can get access to sunlight to overwinter.

Water and fertilizer management

During the maintenance process of Pulsatilla, it is necessary to combine watering and fertilizing to do a good job of water and fertilizer management. Whitehead likes fertilizer, but is not picky about fertilizer. When fertilizing, you need to apply some base fertilizer when planting. After that, you can apply decomposed liquid fertilizer once every half a month during the growth period. When fertilizing, you need to combine it with watering, water it thoroughly to keep the soil in the pot moist. Since the Pulsatilla is not tolerant to salt and alkali, some ferrous sulfate needs to be applied to promote growth; during the maintenance process, care should be taken to avoid the phenomenon of excessive growth, control watering and reduce fertilization, so that the Pulsatilla can bloom as soon as possible.
