How to grow Verbena in winter

1. Suitable temperature

Ensuring suitable temperature is the most important task in caring for petunias in winter. The most suitable temperature range for petunia is 15 to 25 degrees. If there are no conditions to ensure that the temperature is within the most suitable range, it cannot be lower than four degrees, otherwise it may harm the health of the plants. It can be placed in a warm room, but not too close to a heater.

2. Adequate light

In winter, ensuring that the petunia receives sufficient sunlight is also very helpful for it to survive the winter. If you keep it indoors, you should choose a location with the brightest light, such as near a window. After the temperature rises, you can take it outdoors or expose it to sunlight.

3. Appropriate amount of water

In winter, the growth rate of petunias is relatively slow, or even stagnant, so they require less water. Therefore, the amount of watering should be reduced accordingly. When you observe that the soil is very dry, water it a little to prevent it from being too dry.

4. Appropriate humidity

The surrounding humidity also needs to be regulated, 65 to 75 percent is better. If it is too dry, spray with water. Spraying water is very important, especially in rooms with heating.

5. Proper pruning

It can be pruned once before winter comes to help it survive the winter safely. The main thing is to cut off the dry and old branches, which will more or less hinder the wintering. Pruning will also help the plant grow next year.
