The flowering time of plum blossom is usually from February to March.It usually blossoms in late winter and early spring, when the temperature has risen.Most of its flowers are solitary, and there are two growing in a bud, the diameter of the flower is between 2-2.5 centimeters, with a strong fragrance.Generally, the flowers open before the leaves, the color is white and pink, and the petals are inverted ovate, which is very beautiful.
1, strengthen the light: want to let the plum blossom open, sufficient light is essential.The illumination time should not be less than 6 hours a day, which can promote the differentiation of flower buds and the formation of flower buds, and has a good role in promoting the flowering of plants.And the general autumn and winter light is relatively soft, there will be no risk of sunburn plants.
2. Temperature control: Plum blossoms usually bloom at the end of winter and the beginning of spring. At this time, the temperature is rising. If you want the plum blossoms to bloom ahead of time, you can also increase the ambient temperature appropriately, so that the buds can bloom ahead of time.It should be noted that while controlling the temperature, we should also pay attention to the temperature difference, if the temperature difference is too large, it will also cause falling flowers.
3. Supplementing fertilizer: Any plant needs to consume nutrients for flowering. If the nutrients are insufficient, flowering will also become a problem. Therefore, applying some fertilizer to plum blossoms can also have the effect of promoting flowering.Generally, the fertilizer that promotes flowering should use more phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, and pay attention to controlling the dosage in order to prevent the roots from being burned by thick fertilizers.
4. Proper pruning: In addition to supplementing nutrients, another way is to reduce the consumption of nutrients. Cut off the branches that are too long and too thin. In this way, nutrients can be concentrated on the strong branches, which is more conducive to plant flowering.
