Will Polygonatum freeze to death in winter?

1. Will I freeze to death?

Polygonatum has a relatively good growth ability and is very cold-resistant. It can grow well even in winter and will not freeze to death. Although it is not easy to be frozen to death, it still needs proper warming, which is not only beneficial for it to survive the winter, but also more beneficial for its growth in the second year.

2. Ways to keep warm

Relatively speaking, it is not afraid of the cold, so you don't need to pay too much attention to keeping it warm. Just cover it with a layer of transparent plastic film when the weather is cold, or you can use straw to cover it to keep it warm. It should be noted that the covering should be removed in spring. Some people will plant a small amount in a larger pot. If it is raised at home, the pot can be moved indoors, which also has a good warming effect.

3. Wintering Methods

1. Watering: In winter, watering must be done less often. You can water it once every 5-7 days. Just keep the cultivating soil slightly moist.

2. Fertilization: Fertilize once before entering winter. You can use phosphate fertilizer, farmyard manure or cake fertilizer. After fertilizing, loosen the soil appropriately so that the Polygonatum sibiricum can absorb nutrients better.
