Is the sweet-scented osmanthus tree suitable for planting in the north?

1. Is it suitable?

Osmanthus trees can be planted in the north, but their cold resistance is not very good. The winter temperature in the north will drop, and if appropriate measures are not taken, it will be difficult for them to survive the winter, so fewer of them are planted in the north. If the area is not too northerly, it can be planted, or you can just pay attention to keeping warm in winter.

2. Precautions for breeding in the north

1. Keep warm: In the winter in the north, it is necessary to prevent frost, especially for the young osmanthus seedlings. If the seedlings are planted in a large area, you can build a greenhouse for them to prevent frost. Or you can build a pile of soil under the tree to keep its roots warm. But if it is grown in a potted plant, you can move it directly back into the house for cultivation.

2. Soil: Many soils in northern regions are alkaline, and it is best to use acidic soil when planting osmanthus, so be careful when planting in the north. During its growth process, you can use some ferrous sulfate solution appropriately, which will be better for its growth.

3. Drainage: This plant is very afraid of waterlogging, so drainage measures should be prepared as early as possible during planting to avoid the impact of waterlogging on its growth during the rainy season.
