However, in order to improve the growth and development of Pyracantha fortunei, we should choose the sandy soil with deep soil layer, loose soil and good drainage. At ordinary times, some nitrogen fertilizer can be applied regularly to promote the growth of the branches and leaves of Pyracantha fortuneana. When the flowering period is about to come, some phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be applied to promote the prosperity of the flowering period and the maturity of the fruit. In winter, there is no need to apply fertilizer so that the firethorn can pass the dormancy period.
Pyracantha is very drought resistant, but the soil is easy to dry in winter, so it can be watered properly. The soil can be dried during flowering, which is good for the result of Pyracantha. In case of rainy season, pay attention to drainage. After harvest, before entering hibernation, water enough water for overwintering, and then no more water during hibernation.
Pyracantha usually propagates by seed propagation and cutting.
The crown of Pyracantha is very disorderly in the natural state, which not only affects the growth of Pyracantha, but also affects the results of Pyracantha, so we need to prune too dense branches and leaves, long branches and weak branches every year. Pay attention to pruning the branches with too many buds when the flowering period is near.
Pyracantha is very fond of water and fertilizer, so potted Pyracantha should change soil once every two years to turn basin, so as to maintain the fertility of basin soil.
