This practice encourages the emergence of new buds, leading to denser growth and facilitating subsequent branch styling. - Ornamental Value: The leaf color exhibits significant seasonal changes, with autumn buds appearing in a striking orange-red, evoking a strong autumnal atmosphere. 【Key Care Points】 [Sunlight] Spring & Autumn: Recommended to place in a location with partial sunlight or bright, indirect light. Summer: Avoid strong direct sunlight, which can easily cause leaf scorch or dryness. Move to a shaded area or use shade cloths/curtains for protection. [Watering] Water thoroughly once the surface of the growing medium begins to feel dry. During hot summer temperatures, moisture evaporates quickly, so be mindful to prevent the plant from drying out. [Repotting & Medium Management] Vigorous growth suggests repotting every 1-2 years. The optimal time is early spring. After repotting, protect the plant from cold winds and frost to maintain its vigor. [Fertilizing Recommendation] Fertilizing Period: Mid-March to late June. If the medium was recently changed, wait at least one month for the plant to stabilize and adapt before fertilizing to prevent root burn.
