Sweet osmanthus is a long sunshine plant, which needs 6-8 hours of light every day. Enough light time can make it grow better. If the light is not enough, it will be difficult to form flower buds.
It doesn't have much demand for soil. Except alkaline soil or soil with heavy viscosity and poor drainage, it can generally grow. It is most suitable to be planted in the soil with good drainage and rich organic micro acid sand.
It is suitable to grow in the environment of 15-28 ℃, and the lowest acceptable temperature is - 13 ℃. The ambient temperature for seedling growth should not be too high.
It likes to be wet and has a high demand for water. It needs to be watered frequently to keep the soil moist. In summer, water once in the morning and evening, and in spring and autumn, every 1-2 days. If the water is not enough, the branches and leaves of Osmanthus will wither. &Nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp;
