Cultivation methods and precautions of Qilixiang

1. Lighting

Sweet olive prefers sunlight, because after receiving sufficient sunlight, its leaves will grow greener and more shiny. When it is blooming, it is even more important to place it in a place with good light, because this will make its flowers more beautiful and the fragrance more pleasant.

2. Temperature

It is more suitable for growing at temperatures between 20-32℃, so it needs to be placed in a warmer place when caring for it. Do not let the temperature drop below 8℃, otherwise it may slow down its growth and cause its leaves to wilt.

3. Watering

Water it sufficiently, don't let it lack water, but don't let water accumulate either. Normally, you can water it once every 1-2 days to keep its soil moist. But in winter, watering should be reduced to once a month to prevent it from freezing. In addition, when it is producing flower buds, reduce watering to promote bud formation.

IV. Precautions

Every 2-3 years, you need to update the soil and flowerpot. You can choose a slightly larger pot for the new one to allow its roots enough room to grow. Try to choose new soil with higher fertility to provide it with sufficient nutrients.
