Many friends only know some common flowers and plants such as peonies and roses . In fact, there is a kind of plant with lush leaves, strange and full flower shapes, rich colors, and a fragrance like orchids. It also has a unique charm. That is Michelia. Let’s take a look at which month is the most suitable for transplanting Michelia? Which month is the best for transplanting Michelia? 1. Spring The best time to transplant is in early spring, before bud break, around mid-March to mid-April. The temperature gradually warms up during this period, which is conducive to the resumption of plant growth. 2. Autumn Another suitable time for transplanting is in autumn, usually from November to Qingming Festival. Transplanting in the fall ensures that the plants have enough time to acclimate to their new environment before winter. 3. Precautions for transplanting During the transplanting process, the following points should be noted: It is best to bring the soil ball with you when transplanting to reduce damage to the root system. After transplanting, proper pruning is required to cut off diseased or withered branches and leaves. Use loose, breathable, well-drained soil, and pay attention to the pH value of the soil. It is best to use fertile, slightly acidic or neutral soil. After transplanting, avoid strong direct sunlight, and water appropriately to keep the soil moist. Key points for planting Michelia (1) Flower pot selection The roots of Michelia are fleshy and cannot tolerate waterlogging, so you should choose a deeper flowerpot with better air permeability or a deep flowerpot with more water holes. (2) Soil preparation Michelia prefers slightly acidic soil. The potting soil should be loose, breathable, fertile, and slightly acidic. You can use peat soil, leaf mold, compost and river sand mixed in a ratio of 1:1:1. (3) Fertilizer and water management Michelia likes moisture but cannot tolerate waterlogging. Keep the soil in the pot slightly moist in summer and pay special attention to prevent waterlogging during the rainy season. Michelia likes fertilizer, so organic fertilizer should be applied frequently, and the amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be increased before flowering, such as fermented bone meal or fish intestine water. (4) Lighting management Michelia prefers semi-shady environment and cannot tolerate direct sunlight. Shade is needed in summer, but sufficient sunlight can be received in other seasons. (5) Temperature control Michelia is not cold-resistant and it is best to keep it at around 10 degrees in winter. When the temperature is below 5 degrees, the plant grows slowly and even the new leaves wither. In short, the best time to transplant Michelia is usually in spring or autumn. The climatic conditions in these two seasons are more suitable, which is conducive to Michelia adapting to the new growth environment and improving the survival rate.
