How to keep Milan in winter

How to keep Milan in winter

1. Increase frost resistance

It is not frost-resistant and requires external management of water and fertilizer to survive the winter safely. After autumn, stop using fertilizers, especially nitrogen-containing fertilizers. At the same time, you should reduce watering and keep the soil dry, which can make the branches and leaves more lush, thus effectively enhancing frost resistance.

2. Appropriate temperature increase

The low temperature limit of this type of plant is 0℃. When the growth environment is lower than 0℃, the growth state will be disrupted and the leaves will be frostbitten. Therefore, before the temperature drops in late autumn, it should be moved indoors for maintenance. When maintaining it indoors, avoid placing it near doors or windows to prevent cold wind from blowing on it. The temperature fluctuation in winter should not be too large, as it will affect its dormancy. It should be controlled at around 10-12℃. The temperature should not exceed 145℃. If it exceeds 15℃, it will grow tender shoots and consume nutrients.

3. Proper watering

It will be in a dormant state in winter. Prevent the soil from being too dry or too wet, and don't wait until the soil is completely dry before watering. Do not water too much when watering, make sure the moisture in the soil is balanced. It still needs photosynthesis in winter. If the leaves are covered with dust, it will affect the metabolism. The leaves should be sprayed with water every ten days to clean them.

4. Don’t leave the room too early

The temperature in early spring is relatively low, and for it, it is still winter, so it has to wait until the temperature stabilizes in spring and the climate warms up before going out indoors.
