If it is due to too much water, then control the amount of water and do not water unless the soil is dry. It needs 6 to 8 hours of sunlight every day, and the temperature is best kept at 14 to 28°C. You can also improve air circulation and increase the humidity around the pot to prevent the leaves from drying out and turning yellow.

1. Neither too much nor too little water is acceptable

The soil for planting osmanthus must have good air permeability, and it is very afraid of too much water. For osmanthus care, it is best not to water unless the soil is dry, and each time you water, you must water thoroughly. If you water too much, the roots of the osmanthus will turn black and rot, and the tips of the leaves will wither crisply, then the entire leaf will gradually wither, turn yellow and fall off.

2. Sunlight exposure is very important

Osmanthus is a plant that likes sunlight and cool areas. It needs 6 to 8 hours of sunlight every day, and the temperature in the area where it is planted must not be lower than 14°C. In late summer and early autumn, the temperature should be kept at 24 to 28°C, and in winter the temperature should be above 0°C in the wind.

3. Adapting to temperature makes it grow tall

1. In winter, osmanthus should be placed in a room with plenty of light. This not only allows it to safely pass through winter, but also steadily pass through the dormant period. The temperature is best controlled at 5 to 8°C, otherwise it will cause the bud and leaf sprouting period to advance and produce a series of bad effects! 2. The most suitable temperature for growth should be 25 to 30°C, and the flowering period is in the crisp autumn. It is best to control the temperature at 15 to 20°C. Below this temperature, the flowering period will be delayed; above this temperature, the flowering period will be advanced and the viewing period will be shortened.

4. Wind and ventilation keep diseases away

Through air circulation, osmanthus not only increases the humidity around the pot, but also allows the bacteria near the leaves to be fully circulated away by the air, making it less susceptible to bacterial infection.

5. Getting nutrients makes it strong

Osmanthus is also a delicate plant, and a moment of negligence may make it sick. In ordinary times, we can provide it with some potassium or decomposed propagation fertilizer, so that it gradually improves its immunity and has resistance to external pathogens, allowing it to grow vigorously.

As long as you pay attention to the above points, the osmanthus at home will definitely flourish more and more!
