Although clove can bear a little shade, it prefers sunshine. It grows better under the light stimulation, which is beneficial to the vigorous and dense branches and the increase of flower number and fragrance. Therefore, it should be exposed to enough light stimulation in daily growth. If potted plants are kept at home, they can also be placed on a sunny balcony.
The requirements for soil are not very strict. Generally, it can grow in the soil, but it is more suitable for fertile soil with good drainage performance. It is not allowed to cause root rot due to excessive water accumulation, so it is not allowed to use the soil that is too sticky and hard.
Lilac likes warm climate, the most suitable temperature is about 20 ℃, but it can stand the cold. Generally, it won't be damaged by freezing under low temperature.
Its adaptability is relatively strong, and we don't need to pay much attention to the water content. As long as we see that the soil layer is completely dry, we can supply water appropriately. When there is much precipitation in rainy season, pay attention to timely drainage, and do not store water at the root.
Clove is not very fond of fertilizer, as long as the nutrition can maintain the growth, it can be composted once a year. It should be ripened in advance, and the fertilizer should not be too thick, otherwise it will lead to the excessive growth of branches and affect flowering.
