In autumn, winter and spring, it's best to put it on the balcony facing the sun. In summer, pay attention to shade to prevent burns. Provide it with water, fertilizer and light during the flowering period, and pick the flowers after they fall. Petunia is not resistant to high temperature. Pay attention to spray water to cool down in high temperature, and pay attention to pruning in daily maintenance.

1. Location

In spring and autumn and winter, it's better not to put it on the balcony facing the north, because the light is relatively weak. If you put it on the north, the light is even less. Summer needs to be placed in the East and North, because the temperature is particularly high in summer, to shade it

2. Winter

Winter at home need to pay attention to one point, that is, it can only winter in the temperature above zero, we'd better prevent it in a sunny closed balcony, so that the wind and rain will not affect it, in addition, we still have to keep the pot soil moist, but also give it sufficient light, of course, if the balcony temperature is particularly high, its flowering will be ahead of time.

3. Flowering

In order to reach its flowering stage, first of all, we need to have a little demand, that is, the temperature should be appropriate, and it will bloom only at the appropriate temperature. When flowering, we need to pay attention to water and fertilizer, and also give it enough light. If the flower is going to fail, it needs to be removed. Another advantage of picking flowers is that the leaves under it will grow new branches and blossom again, and the flowering period will be prolonged. It can not be applied too much fertilizer in the flowering period, especially nitrogen fertilizer, if applied too much, it is easy to cause its plants to grow too high and fall.

4. Trim

Pruning is necessary, especially at home. In May and October, its flowers will open continuously, and its vines will grow very long. At this time, we can cut its stem short, and then fertilize it to keep the pot soil moist. Soon, there will be new branches and flowers on the tall stem. Of course, if we are to cultivate hanging cultivation, then we can not prune.

5. Shade

Next year's temperature is particularly high. We need to cool it down and shade it. It's better to sprinkle some water on the surrounding ground and blow it. Be careful not to pour too much water on it, or its roots will rot. We should pay attention that it is not resistant to high temperature. If the temperature is above 30 ℃, it will wither and die physiologically.
