How to grow gardenia and peony

1. Breeding environment

1. Potting soil: It likes acidic soil with a pH value between 5 and 6. Inappropriate acidity will affect its later growth. When planting, you can mix peat soil, leaf mold and sawdust. Do not use coal slag or old wall soil.

2. Watering: April to September is the growth stage. Keep the soil moist and water when it becomes dry. If there is a lack of water, its growth will be affected. In winter, the amount of water should be reduced and water accumulation is strictly prohibited.

3. Light: It is a light-loving plant. It should be placed in a place with good sunlight and get more sun so that it can bloom and grow lushly. But be careful to avoid strong sunlight in summer to avoid sunburn.

4. Fertilization: Fertilize frequently during the growing season, preferably with a thin layer of fertilizer once a week. When buds appear, increase the amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers to make the flowers larger and the fragrance stronger.

2. Pruning method

It has a strong germination ability and tends to grow overlapping branches, resulting in poor internal ventilation and dispersed nutrients. At this time, pruning is required. When shaping, only three main branches need to be retained and the excess branches should be cut off. After the flowers fade, cut the branches short to promote the sprouting of new branches.
