How to grow Michelia on the balcony and what should be paid attention to

1. How to maintain

1. Light requirements: Michelia has a high demand for light during its growth process. Only by ensuring sufficient light exposure can it maintain its growth needs, ensure good growth, and make the flowers bloom brightly and lushly. If there is a lack of sunlight, growth will be affected, the opening of flowers will be affected, and it may even fail to bloom. When caring for it at home, you can place it on the balcony where the light can be guaranteed.

2. Provide water: It needs water during its growth. During the period of vigorous growth, it can be watered once a day. This can maintain the growth needs and avoid root drought. In summer, the climate becomes hotter and the demand for water increases, so you can water it twice a day. The climate is cold in autumn and winter, so watering once a week is sufficient.

3. Provide fertilizer: It grows very vigorously and requires a lot of fertilizer. You can apply fertilizer every half a month and stop fertilizing after October.

4. Proper pruning: Spring is the main period for pruning. Old branches, diseased branches, and weak branches need to be pruned. After flowering, overgrown branches and overly dense branches also need to be pruned.

2. What to pay attention to

It needs light, but cannot tolerate direct sunlight in the summer, so it needs to be shielded.
