What are the planting and management methods of Lagerstroemia indica?
2. Water and fertilizer: Lagerstroemia indica has strong adaptability, so it should be watered 1 ~ 3 times in spring drought area, which is beneficial to the growth of plants and flower bud differentiation in that year. Applying decomposed human and animal manure in rhizosphere after autumn every year or applying liquid fertilizer 1 ~ 2 times in May ~ June can promote the development of inflorescence in that year.
3. Pruning: During the growth of Lagerstroemia indica, the lateral buds at the lower part of the stem should be removed at any time to promote the growth of the terminal buds and upper branches. When leaves fall, long branches, dead branches and diseased branches should be cut off. After autumn, cut off the top of the new branches that were born that year, so that the flowers on the plants will bloom vigorously in the next year.
