In summer, the temperature is relatively high. To cool down, you can spray water around to increase the air humidity to achieve the effect of cooling down, or build a shade, do not expose to the sun. When spraying water, it is usually sprayed at 8:00 in the morning and again at 3:00 in the afternoon to keep air circulation. In June and July, we need to prune and reshape to reduce fertilization.

1. Cooling

Because summer is often the hottest time of the year, there is no doubt that there is no environment for this kind of plant at this time, so it is very important to cool it. To achieve this goal, we need to sprinkle water around it, because at this time, the evaporation of water is very large, and the evaporation of water needs to absorb heat, so it can bring some to the surrounding. Cool.

In addition, sunshade is also a must. Because the sun exposure will affect its normal growth, we can build a shed for it. Generally, we need to cover it with two layers of sunshade, or directly move it from the outside to a cool place. If the shed is used, what we need to do is spray water on it. Generally, spray it at 8:00 a.m. and again at 3:00 p.m. in addition, we need to do a good job in ventilation.

June and July

The pruning of this kind of flower is from the beginning of June to the middle of July. After pruning, the leaves of this kind of flower will be greatly damaged, so we must keep the roots well, so that it can grow healthily. Of course, at this time, fertilization should be reduced, no matter the times or the concentration should be slightly reduced, because fertilization is generally not allowed for more than half a month after pruning.

3. August

In August, the buds will come out. At this time, we need to adopt more strict management. First of all, we need to keep the temperature below 30 degrees, so that its leaves and flower buds can grow normally, and then we need to know that the green leaves are easy to be attacked by insects, so we must give it sterilization and insecticidal, so that it can avoid the infection of bacteria and the invasion of insects. Of course, we still need to give it water and fertilizer resources normally. As long as it can pass the summer smoothly, it will open very well in spring
