No matter which season, it needs sunshine. Especially when the temperature is low and in the flowering period, it is usually cultured on the windowsill with good lighting conditions. Light to ensure good, in order to let it bloom very bright, flowering time will be longer
Avoid that the light can not meet the needs, or the color of its flowers will be lighter. If long-term in the environment of insufficient light, it may not bloom, especially in winter, its leaves will fall a lot.
In winter, we must pay attention to the heat preservation of the tiger bayberry. If we can control the temperature above 15 degrees, it will continue to bloom throughout the winter. Do not let the temperature be lower than 0 degrees, or it will be frozen to death. If the temperature is low and the light is insufficient, its leaves will fall and enter the state of pause growth and dormancy, which will make people think that it is dead and discarded. In fact, when the weather is warm in spring, it will continue to sprout and spit leaves on its branches, and it will continue to bloom!
In winter, for the blooming bayberry, it needs a lot of water. Generally, it needs to be watered once every two or three days, but it is not allowed to accumulate water, as long as the soil is kept moist, otherwise its roots will rot or even the whole plant will die!
Tiger bayberry grows slowly. It can only grow 10 cm in a year, so it doesn't need and doesn't like big fertilizer. However, when it comes to potting and changing pots, it can put some horseshoes at the bottom of the flowerpot as the base fertilizer. In winter, it needs to apply thin liquid fertilizer once a half month. Do not use fertilizer with too high concentration, otherwise it may be burned by thick fertilizer. Oh!
Finally, I would like to remind you that there are thorns in the whole plant of bayberry, and the white milk in the stem is also toxic, so when you plant it at home, you must pay attention to the place where it is placed, not stabbing children, to avoid poisoning
