How to care for Daphne
1. Do not use alkaline soil

2. Pay attention to supplementing water
Daphne has fleshy roots and does not need too much water. Usually, be sure to control watering to avoid root rot in Daphne caused by too much watering. Most of the time, just keep the potting soil dry, but when watering, be sure to water thoroughly.
3. Maintain a suitable temperature
Daphne is very intolerant of cold. When caring for Daphne in winter, in the north it can be placed indoors with heating and in a place with sufficient light. Be careful to shelter it from wind and keep the air circulating. The temperature needs to be kept above 5°C, and must not fall below 5°C, to avoid cold damage.
4. Apply organic nutrient solution
When caring for Daphne, be sure to pay attention to fertilizing. The best is to apply organic nutrient solution, which can ensure the growth of Daphne. During the flowering period, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be applied, and Daphne can be richly fragrant.
I believe flower lovers now have a certain understanding of Daphne care. Daphne care requires alkaline soil, and in everyday care it is necessary to control water, and pay attention to supplementing the flowers with phosphorus and potassium fertilizer and maintaining a suitable temperature, so that the flowers can grow vigorously.
