Many flower lovers like camellias, they bloom brilliantly in spring, and they are a very good seasonal flower. They can be seen around the Spring Festival every year, and many flower friends also buy camellia flowers at this time.
Most of the potted camellia we buy in the market and online are grown with yellow clay, garden soil or red clay, and we should unpack them in time after buying them.
Plants should be unpacked in time to buy home, check the dry and wet soil of the potting soil, and water slowly into the potting soil when it is relatively dry, it is best to water slowly many times to ensure that the soil is completely full of water, if the soil is still relatively wet, don't rush to water first. Do not pour with large amounts of water.
If the soil is very dry and the leaves are hanging low, soak the potting soil in a pot of water where the water level can be passed over the top of the pot for about 5 to 10 minutes, and then pick it up and drain it.
Tip: After watering the potting soil thoroughly, you can peel aside the topsoil a little and check the condition of the root system, if there are many small white capillary roots, it is very healthy.
If the root system is black or brown, and there is no new root, it is not very healthy, in this case, it is necessary to remove too many flower buds in advance, generally only one or two, if the root system is in good condition, you can retain most of the healthy flower buds.
Just bought the potted camellia at home, pay attention to put it in a ventilated and transparent place, do not put it in too sunny place, and do not put it in too dark place, you can give a little soft scattered light, so that the potted camellia slowly adapt to the home environment.
The environment of maintenance is to have a little breeze, do not put it in a place where the wind is too strong, and do not put it in a place with poor air circulation.
If the camellia is too badly deficient, the leaves are easy to dry out, the leaves are easy to lose their luster, and it looks like the leaves are dull in color, and they usually appear on the old leaves at the bottom of the plant. If the situation is particularly severe, its buds will not open and the leaves will fall off easily.
When watering, be sure to water slowly with small water, and repeat it into the potting soil many times to ensure that it is watered thoroughly. Before each watering, you must check the dryness and wetness of the potting soil, and if the soil is relatively dry for two or three centimeters, you can water, generally to open the topsoil to check it.
There is also a very important problem, that is, fertilizing the potted camellia that you just bought at home, don't rush to fertilize, generally after two weeks, and then consider supplementing fertilizer, if you are too anxious to fertilize, it will only lead to fertilizer injury. It also takes more than two weeks for plants to adapt to their new environment.
About two or three weeks after buying the potted camellia at home, the new buds are gradually developing and full, and the buds are getting bigger, which is growing normally. If the buds are not developing properly, they must not have regained their growth.
The whole pregnant bud period of potted camellia is very long, and it takes a long time for the bud to develop. You can also give a little bit of flower-promoting fertilizer, including the common Hua Duoduo No. 1 or Hua Duoduo No. 2. Granular compound fertilizers should be considered for three or four weeks before they are used.
Therefore, we should also observe more carefully, if the potted camellia is not restored to grow at home, the buds are not developing normally, and there are buds, and the leaves continue to dry up and fall, then it is actually necessary to consider whether the position is too lacking in sunlight, the ventilation is too poor, the air is too dry, or whether it is not watered in time, resulting in the camellia not recovering growth, it must not be in a hurry to fertilize.
Maintenance potted camellia must not be in a hurry to change the pot, especially to buy back with buds, do not change the pot throughout the flowering period, do not rush to fertilize, normal watering, give more than three or five hours of scattered light every day, their buds can also open normally.
When watering potted camellias, try not to get on the flowers and do not spray water on the buds. Potted camellia should not be placed next to air outlets or heaters.
