How to take care of the camellia you just bought

1. Watering

After buying camellia, you need to check the moisture content of the planting soil. If it has become dry and cracked, water it thoroughly immediately. If the soil feels slightly moist, don't water it yet. Too much water will not be good for its growth. If there is too much water in the flowerpot, place it in a well-ventilated place.

2. Lighting

You can allow it to receive appropriate light, as long as it is not exposed to strong sunlight. It can be placed outdoors or in a ventilated room. Don't let it get wet in the rain or be blown directly by strong winds. If you grow it outdoors, you should move it to a warmer place at night.

3. Stop Fertilization

Before the plant adapts to the new environment, it does not need too much fertilizer during the seedling growth period, so do not fertilize it at this time. If it does not grow well and cannot absorb the nutrients, its root system will definitely be burned. Don't rush to change the pot to avoid it stopping growing.

4. Pruning

It is very likely that necrotic branches will appear due to improper maintenance during transportation. You can trim them slightly after buying them, but don't cut too much. Just cut off the dead and rotten branches.
