Why did the jasmine flowers I just bought fall off?

The reason why jasmine flowers drop buds

Unsuitable environment

Newly bought jasmine flowers are prone to falling off buds, and the reason for this is actually easy to find.

The jasmine flowers sold in the flower market are generally grown in greenhouses where the temperature and light are relatively fixed, and their ability to adapt to new environments is relatively poor.

When you buy jasmine home, it is in a new environment and it needs time to adapt to the new environment. Adapting to the new environment will consume a lot of its energy, and the absorption of nutrients will be very small. If there are flower buds on the plant at this time, it will be difficult to grow. Because at this time the nutrients are all used to maintain the plant's own growth, there are no nutrients to maintain flowering, and the buds will easily fall off.

What to do if jasmine buds fall off

Flower picking and pruning

When you buy jasmine flowers, they have many flower buds on them. We usually cut off some of the flower buds to reduce nutrient consumption. Secondly, we need to prune some branches and shorten them. All thinner branches should be shortened.

Adapting to the environment

The newly bought jasmine flowers need to be allowed to adapt to the environment first. We can place jasmine in a cool and ventilated place indoors, avoid direct sunlight, and keep the soil in the pot moist. Generally, after waiting for about half a month, when the jasmine starts to grow new buds, you can start to take care of it normally, and then the jasmine can bloom to its heart's content.
