water

Ziwei likes wet and is afraid of waterlogging. There is no need to water too much in spring and winter, as long as the soil in the flowerpot is kept moist. However, don't neglect watering in summer and autumn. It is best to replenish water in the morning and evening. After all, the evaporation increases greatly in high temperature climate, and once it is short of water, it is very unfavorable for Lagerstroemia indica to bloom.

Fertilize soil or land

Most families don't grow crape myrtle in the courtyard, so attention should be paid to the proportion of fertilization in potted plants. Too much unreasonable fertilization can easily lead to damage to the roots of flowers, or long white flowers, and too little fertilization will lead to too slender branches and leaves. Lagerstroemia indica grows rapidly in summer, so more fertilizer can be added accordingly, and it must be regular to form a better law.

decrease

Lagerstroemia indica grows rapidly and can be pruned properly in summer. Generally, pruning the remaining dead flowers after flower failure is beneficial to the continuation of flowering period, and can also prune some weak, morbid and overflourishing branches.
