Environment: in the hot summer season, the midday should be shaded as much as possible, and the light should be increased appropriately in autumn and winter. Soil: it is required that the drainage of soil is good and the best is slightly acid sandy soil and clay loam. Moisture: the air humidity is required to be large enough, and the basin soil should be kept slightly moist. Temperature: the ideal winter temperature should be about 5 ℃.

I. environment

Camellia has certain requirements for the maintenance of the environment. Camellia is a plant that can tolerate half shade. In the hot summer, try to do a good job of shading at noon. Too strong light will make the leaves of Camellia wither, yellow, roll back, deformed and discolored and so on. After entering autumn and winter, it needs more and more light to facilitate flower bud differentiation.

2. Soil

Camellia requires that the soil drainage is good and the best is slightly acid sandy soil and clay loam, because its root system is relatively thin, so it requires a little viscosity to the soil, too loose is not conducive to its growth.

Water content

Camellia requires that the air humidity is large enough, and the basin soil should be kept slightly moist, too dry and long-term water accumulation are not conducive to the normal development of its root system.

Temperature

The ideal overwintering temperature should be about 5 ℃, and the high temperature in summer will also inhibit the growth of Camellia.

5. Precautions

Camellia needs to be in a slightly acidic environment during its growth. If it is alkalescent, it will cause yellow disease, and other pests like scale insects, spiders, aphids and some other pests. During the maintenance, we can observe and control it in time at any time.
