How to grow five-color plum in autumn

1. Proper pruning

Autumn is its growing season. It grows very fast at this time and needs to be pruned frequently, one to maintain its high ornamental value, and the other to make the nutrients more evenly distributed.

2. Keep warm

The temperature in early autumn in the south is not much different from that in summer, so you only need to follow the maintenance methods in summer. The temperature drops quickly in late autumn, so you need to take warming measures and move it to a warm place before the cold wave comes. In the north, anti-cold measures must be taken before autumn. If the plants are not kept warm in time, they will be frozen by the cold current.

3. Appropriate lighting

The sun in early autumn is still quite strong, so it still needs proper shade at noon. There are more rainy days in early autumn, so after the rain, you need to put it in the sun to receive light. The daylight hours in late autumn are short and the sunlight is mild, so it can be placed in a sunny place to receive sunlight all day.

4. Control temperature

In late autumn, the temperature should be maintained at around 15 degrees. Maintaining this temperature, it can continue to bloom and grow. Generally speaking, as long as the growth temperature is not lower than eight degrees, it can continue to grow. In the north, the heating will be turned on in late autumn and the temperature will be relatively high. When caring for it, do not place it on the ground, as the floor heating will affect its growth. If the growth temperature exceeds 20 degrees, you need to spray the plant with water every day to prevent it from dehydration.
