The branches and tendrils of dianzhumei are long, the leaves are oval, the color is purple green with silver stripes. The flowers of dianzhumei are usually lavender, which are tightly embedded in the bract like leaves at the top. Under normal circumstances, the flowering period is generally in July and August in summer, provided that the winter of the previous year and the spring of the same year are properly cared for, and the nutrients are appropriate, so as to ensure that the beautiful hanging bamboo plum flowers can be seen in summer

Dianthus mume is a thermophile plant. It is necessary to ensure sufficient light during its growth period, so as to ensure that the plant grows dense and full leaves. If it grows in a dark place with insufficient light, it will lead to long, thin and irregular stems and leaves, and thin and unhealthy leaves. It should be noted that although the bamboo plums should be bright in the sun, they should not be directly exposed to the sun. They are easy to lose water and cause wilting.

Bamboo blossom is suitable for growing in warm environment. Spring, summer and autumn are its growth periods. It grows slowly or directly enters into dormancy period at low temperature in winter. Therefore, when the temperature in winter is lower than 10 degrees, we should pay attention to heat preservation.

During the growth period of bamboo blossom, it is not suitable to water it too frequently, just keep the basin soil slightly wet, which will make the leaves of bamboo blossom more bright. In winter dormancy period, watering once a half month is enough to ensure the water absorption. Too much watering will lead to root rot and plant death.
