Some rhododendrons also bloom in winter, so many flower friends will choose to raise several pots to add some color during the Spring Festival. The rhododendrons just brought back from the flower market have green leaves and plump flowers, which are really hard to see. But sometimes at home, the phenomenon of falling leaves and flowers will appear before the end of the Spring Festival. What's the matter?
First of all, we need to understand the root of Rhododendron to solve the problem. The azaleas we bought from the flower market are generally grown in the greenhouse, but the temperature in our home in winter is generally not the same as that in the greenhouse, so the roots of azaleas will feel uncomfortable at this time, just like the exclusion phenomenon we usually say, so it is understandable that the flowers and leaves are falling.
The Rhododendron we bought back from the flower market should not only ensure its growth temperature, but also make efforts in its daily maintenance. After all, plants like Rhododendron are so "proud and delicate". Once something goes wrong accidentally, it can't be recovered. Flowers here to tell you about the usual maintenance of azalea
Rhododendron can be moved to the outdoor for maintenance in spring. The sun is soft at this time. Except for a little shade of the sun at noon, the normal light can be maintained at other times. In summer, because of the high temperature and strong light, we need to put it in a ventilated environment, only in the early morning and evening sun can be a little. The temperature is low in autumn and winter. When you put it in the room for maintenance, you should make Rhododendron absorb a little scattering light every day.
Water Rhododendron as much as possible. Because too dry or too wet environment will let Rhododendron growth is not exuberant enough, in general, we try to ensure that the Rhododendron in summer once a day to water, until the winter temperature is too low, the evaporation rate is also slow, this time an average of 5 days to water once.
The flower root of Rhododendron is thin and soft, that is to say, it is relatively fragile, so when applying fertilizer, try to apply thin fertilizer as much as possible, which can not only ensure the nutrients needed by the growth of Rhododendron, but also won't damage the flower root of Rhododendron. Rhododendron is best to choose the thin fertilizer water containing phosphorus element before flowering. When the flower falls, it will be watered with the thin fertilizer water containing nitrogen element. In this way, it is not a problem for Rhododendron to grow well.
