III. What are the growing methods for Orange Jessamine?

1. Soil: sandy soil rich in humus

Orange Jessamine does not have high soil requirements. Generally, as long as the soil is loose, fertile and rich in humus, it can be grown, so when choosing soil, try to use sandy soil rich in humus for planting. Of course, you can also make your own nutrient soil by mixing 7 parts sandy loam, 2 parts cake fertilizer residue and 1 part fine cinder for planting. Before placing the potting soil, try to put an appropriate amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer at the bottom of the pot to ensure the potting soil has sufficient nutrients.

2. Fertilizing: fertilize reasonably

Orange Jessamine does not have high fertilizer requirements. Generally, before placing the potting soil, putting phosphate fertilizer, bone meal and cake fertilizer at the bottom of the pot is enough to give the plant sufficient nutrients. If planted in the ground, generally applying organic fertilizer two or three times a year can promote the growth of seedlings, and by May, applying a diluted fertilizer once a week is enough to ensure sufficient nutrients.

3. Watering: water appropriately

Orange Jessamine does not have high water requirements. Generally, during the growing season, watering once a month with cake fertilizer water is enough. Do not water too much, so that the soil does not become too wet and cause the leaves to drop. The amount of water should be based on how dry the potting soil is, so as to ensure more blooms.

4. Light: place it in a spot with good light

Orange Jessamine likes light, so during cultivation try to place it in a spot with good sunlight, so as to ensure more blooms and a fragrant scent.

5. Temperature: 18-28°C is best

Orange Jessamine likes warmth and is slightly cold-tolerant. It generally grows well in an environment of 18-28°C, so in winter try to move it indoors for cultivation.

6. Pest and disease control: use pesticides such as triadimefon and dimethoate for control

During the growth period of Orange Jessamine, pests and diseases such as powdery mildew, rust disease, longhorn beetles and black spiders will appear, so preventive measures should be taken in advance. The specific control methods are as follows:

(1) Powdery mildew: spray with pesticides such as triadimefon, azoxystrobin and thiophanate-methyl for control.

(2) Rust disease: spray with triadimefon for control.

(3) Longhorn beetles: control by manual removal of the insects or applying lime sulfur mixture.

(4) Red spiders: spray with propargite, hexythiazox and pyridaben for control.

Overall, Orange Jessamine can be kept in the bedroom, but because of its strong fragrance, it is recommended to keep it in the living room or study. In addition, if you want Orange Jessamine to bloom more and have a strong fragrance, you need to do a good job with basic management such as light, temperature, water and fertilizer, so that the plant can grow more vigorously.
