How to Care for Aglaia odorata in Winter So It Survives Safely

Aglaia odorata can also be called four-season Aglaia odorata or broken-flower Aglaia odorata. Its flower shape is quite unique, not the kind that blooms grandly. So do you know how Aglaia odorata overwinters? Let's take a look together!

1. How Aglaia odorata overwinters

Aglaia odorata has poor cold resistance, so in winter it needs to be moved indoors for care. Do not place it in a drafty spot, to avoid cold wind blowing on the plant. Generally, keep the room temperature at 10~12°C. If the room temperature exceeds 15°C, the plant will sprout new buds and consume nutrients.

2. How to water Aglaia odorata

1. Aglaia odorata likes moisture, but it must not be too wet. Especially during the growing period, too much watering can cause problems such as yellowing leaves and root rot. Generally, water again when the potting soil has dried until the surface soil turns pale. Be sure to water thoroughly, judged by water flowing out from the bottom of the pot. At the same time, watering Aglaia odorata should vary according to the growth stage, season, and climate changes.

2. After Qingming, when Aglaia odorata is moved outdoors, the amount of watering should begin to increase. Water less on cloudy days, do not water on rainy days, and on sunny days generally water once every 2~3 days. During high temperatures and dry conditions in summer, in addition to watering in the morning and evening and spraying water on the leaves, it should also be properly shaded to avoid strong sunlight burning the leaves.

3. If due to excessive watering, bud drop and withering or root rot are found, the plant should be taken out of the pot, part of the potting soil removed, the rotten roots and some branches cut off, and then repotted with careful management. If new leaves grow again, it can survive.
