The maintenance of jasmine flowers should ensure enough sunshine. In spring and autumn, water the jasmine flowers 2-3 times a week to keep the soil moist. Apply nitrogen once a half month in the growth season, apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizer more in the flowering period, and trim off the diseased branches and leaves and dead branches and leaves during the growth period. Propagation is generally carried out by means of pressing or cutting.

1. Light: it can grow better only when the sunshine is enough. Growth environment can not be without sunshine, too much shade will cause excessive growth of branches and leaves, and there will be no flowering phenomenon. However, when summer sun appears, we must shade it.

2. Water content: try to water 2-3 times a week in spring and autumn, and water every day in summer. Watering is best done in the morning or evening, so that the soil is in a wet state. There should be no excess water in the basin soil. In addition, watering should be done thoroughly, otherwise the root system will not absorb water.

3. Fertilization: in the season of vigorous growth, apply nitrogen once every half a month. Before flowering, apply less nitrogen and more phosphorus and potassium. When flowering, we need a lot of nutrients. We should apply more P and K fertilizer as much as possible.

4. Pruning: during the growth of jasmine, the diseased branches and leaves, dead branches and leaves should be cut off, and the long branches should also be cut short properly. After the flowering period, you should remove the remaining flowers in time, or you will consume more nutrition.

2. Breeding methods

1. Layering propagation: cut off the epidermis at 15cm from the top of the branches with good growth, expose the stem, bury the wound in the soil, water properly after fixation, and take root in about a month.

2. Cutting propagation: cut the branch with a length of 10cm, remove the base leaf, smear some rooting powder on the wound, insert it in the substrate and water it. If the temperature is low, the plastic film can be used to keep warm. It takes about 40 days to take root.
