Today, I'm sharing with you all a super beautiful plant - Jacaranda mimosifolia!
Jacaranda mimosifolia is a deciduous tree. When it blooms, the tree is full of blue-purple flowers, which are so beautiful that they are breathtaking! Its flowers are bell-shaped, clustered in clusters, like dreamy purple clouds.
The flowering period of Jacaranda mimosifolia is generally from May to June every year. At this time, you can see its beautiful figure everywhere on both sides of the street, in the campus, and in the park. Walking under the Jacaranda mimosifolia tree, when the breeze blows, the petals fall one after another, as if being in a fairy tale world.
And Jacaranda mimosifolia is not only good-looking but also has many interesting features! Its leaves are opposite pinnate compound leaves, which are very special.
If you also want to plant a Jacaranda mimosifolia in your home, pay attention to the following points:
Lighting:
Jacaranda mimosifolia likes a sunny environment but can also tolerate shade. During the growth period, it should be placed in a place with sufficient scattered light to promote photosynthesis and flower growth.
It should be noted that in the hot summer, direct strong sunlight should be avoided to prevent leaf burns. At this time, appropriate shading treatment can be carried out.
Temperature:
The suitable growth temperature for Jacaranda mimosifolia is 15-25°C, or more specifically, its most suitable growth temperature is 22 to 30°C. Within this temperature range, Jacaranda mimosifolia can thrive and bloom smoothly.
In winter, if the temperature is lower than 15°C, the growth of Jacaranda mimosifolia may stagnate. Therefore, in the cold winter, attention should be paid to warmth-keeping measures, especially for young Jacaranda mimosifolia plants.
Watering:
Jacaranda mimosifolia likes a humid environment but is not waterlogging-tolerant. During the growth period, the soil should be kept moist but avoid water accumulation that causes root rot.
In the hot summer season, in addition to normal watering, water can also be sprayed around the plants to increase the air humidity. In winter, the watering frequency should be controlled, and the soil should be kept slightly dry.
Fertilization:
To promote the growth and flowering of Jacaranda mimosifolia, regular fertilization should be carried out. During the growth seasons of spring and summer, a compound fertilizer or granular slow-release fertilizer with balanced nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium elements can be applied once a month.
It should be noted that excessive fertilization should be avoided when fertilizing to prevent root burns or affect flowering. At the same time, fertilization should be stopped in winter and during hot summer to avoid excessive nutrition or root burns.
Pruning:
Jacaranda mimosifolia grows fast and needs regular pruning and shaping to maintain a beautiful tree shape. Pruning is mainly carried out in spring and autumn, and dead, pest-infested or overly dense branches can be removed.
After flowering, appropriate pruning is also needed to remove residual flowers and faded flowers, which helps reduce nutrient loss and promote the germination of new buds.
Jacaranda mimosifolia is really a beautiful gift bestowed upon us by nature. Let's enjoy its beauty together!
