Matters Needing Attention in Camellia Repotting: Maintenance and Techniques after Repotting

Notes on Camellia Repotting

Because camellia has a relatively long flowering period and grows relatively fast, it consumes a lot of nutrients, so timely repotting and soil change can better solve this problem. In order to make the plant grow stronger and more vigorous, repotting and soil change is a good method. Pay attention to the following matters during the repotting process:

1. When repotting camellia, it is best to have a little soil on the roots of the camellia, so that it is easier to plant and has a higher survival rate, but the old soil needs to be removed.

2. The interval between repotting of camellia does not need to be too short. Cutting camellia only needs to be repotted every 3 to 4 years, and grafted camellia only needs to be repotted every 2 years at the beginning, and it is best to repot every 3 to 4 years in the later stage.

3. When repotting camellia, the temperature should be kept between 10 and 20 degrees as much as possible. The relatively suitable temperature will make the camellia grow better and avoid some unnecessary diseases.

Key points for repotting camellia

1. Preparation

When repotting camellia, pay attention to properly pruning and drying its roots. This will make the camellia grow more. Stop watering the plant two weeks before repotting to make it easier to remove from the pot later.

2. Soil for repotting

When changing the soil, it is best to put some broken tiles and stones in the new flowerpot. The broken tiles and stones can filter water. Then spread a layer of soil on the tiles and stones. Finally, straighten the camellia, plant it, and fill the surrounding area with soil.
