1. Soil: The soil for planting hawthorn trees is relatively important. It should be loose, soft and breathable.

2. Light: Light is an indispensable factor, especially during the growing period, there must be sufficient sunlight and it should not be too shaded, otherwise it will affect flowering and fruiting. However, please note that when the seedlings are just being cultivated, they cannot be exposed to the sun for a long time.

3. Fertilization: Fertilization is also very important. Ensure good base fertilizer, and then fertilize regularly during the growth. Apply a certain amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers before flowering, and pay attention to topdressing in the early stage of fruit expansion. Pay attention to the concentration each time you apply fertilizer and do not use concentrated fertilizer.

4. Watering: Hawthorn needs a certain amount of water to grow and cannot be too dry. It needs to be watered during particularly dry periods, but do not leave too much water.
