Milanese is a sun-loving and warm plant adapted to humus-rich, fertile and slightly acidic soils. There are several points about how to water Milanese flowers:
1.Observe the soil moisture: Before watering, you need to observe the soil moisture of the environment in which the Milanese flowers grow. Gently insert your finger into the soil, and if it feels like the surface of the soil is dry, it is time to water.
2.Watering evenly: When watering, make sure that the water penetrates evenly into the soil. There is an option to water slowly and evenly from the edge of the container along the entire potting soil until the water flows out of the drain hole. Avoid watering too much or too little.
3.Avoid stagnant water: After watering, pay attention to remove stagnant water from the bottom of the pot to avoid the roots of the plant being soaked in water for a long time. Standing water for a long time can lead to root rot.
4.Increase watering in summer: During the hot and dry summer months, the water requirement of Milanese flowers increases. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the amount of watering appropriately in the summer to maintain the moisture of the soil. But it is still important not to overwater the roots, so as not to cause root rot and lack of oxygen to the root system.
5.Rainwater utilization: If there is frequent rain in the growing area, it can be watered by collecting rainwater. Rainwater contains natural organic matter that is beneficial for plant growth. A rainwater harvesting system can be set up to store rainwater and then water the plants when used.
6.Foliar spray: The leaves of Milanese flowers can be sprayed with the right amount of water to increase the humidity around the plant and help the leaves absorb water and nutrients. However, care should be taken to avoid the flowers on the leaves during flowering, so as not to affect the shape and aroma of the flowers.
To sum up, with proper watering management, it is possible to maintain the healthy growth and flowering of the plant, allowing the Milanese flower to show its beautiful flowers and fragrance. At the same time, according to the climate and seasonal changes in the planting area, the amount and frequency of watering are adjusted to meet the water needs of the plants.
