How to fertilize a Serissa japonica bonsai? These tips you need to master

  Serissa japonica has a very ancient legend, and the story of Dou E's Injustice is one of the most representative ones. In real life, Serissa japonica is just like its name, pure and white as snow, extremely beautiful. Growing Serissa japonica requires careful care before you can see its most flourishing scene. Below is a detailed introduction to the fertilization methods during the cultivation of Serissa japonica, dedicated to those who love home decorations.

  Serissa japonica rather likes fertilizer, and in daily care it should be given a bit more fertilizer, but remember that although Serissa japonica likes fertilizer, if too much fertilizer is applied, it will make the branches grow too vigorously and easily cause the new branches to grow leggy, so generally apply decomposed cake fertilizer water only once before the onset of winter and once after flowering.

  Proper fertilization is necessary for its growth. Although it can be grown with rough and simple care, during the growing period around April, watering with an appropriate amount of fertilizer will make it bloom very well.

  From April to May each year, apply 2-3 times a 0.5% concentration phosphorus-potassium fertilizer solution; in the depths of winter, apply 1-2 times a dilute organic fertilizer solution. Fertilization is not suitable in other seasons, and concentrated fertilizer is taboo.

  Serissa japonica is relatively tolerant of poor soil, so do not apply too much fertilizer, to avoid causing leggy growth and affecting the shape. Generally, applying 1-2 times a thin fertilizer during the growing season is enough. After potting, apply a dilute liquid fertilizer once every 1~2 weeks to promote robust branches and leaves and abundant flowering.
