🌼 Chrysanthemum Violet (Jamanthi) Care Guide:
🌞 Light
-
Needs: Full sun (at least 4–6 hours daily).
-
The more sunlight it gets, the better the flowering.
-
In partial shade, the plant will grow but produce fewer blooms.
🌡️ Temperature
-
Ideal range: 18–28°C
-
Prefers cool, mild climates.
-
Avoid strong afternoon heat or frost — can stress the plant.
💧 Watering
-
Keep the soil evenly moist, not soggy.
-
Water deeply when the top 2–3 cm of soil feels dry.
-
Reduce watering slightly during the dormant phase after flowering.
💡 Tip: Avoid wetting the foliage to prevent fungal disease.
🌱 Soil
-
Best: Well-draining, nutrient-rich soil.
-
Ideal mix:
-
1 part garden soil
-
1 part cocopeat
-
1 part compost or cow dung manure
-
Add a little sand for better drainage.
-
pH: slightly acidic to neutral (6.0–7.0).
🍽️ Fertilizer
-
During growth (spring to flowering): Feed every 15–20 days.
-
Use a balanced fertilizer (NPK 10:10:10) or organic manure.
-
Once buds appear, switch to high-phosphorus feed (e.g., NPK 5:10:10) for better flowering.
✂️ Pruning & Pinching
-
Pinch off the top 2–3 cm of new growth when the plant is about 15 cm tall.
👉 Encourages branching and bushy shape. -
Remove old flowers regularly (deadheading) to promote continuous blooming.
-
Cut back stems after flowering season to prepare for next year’s growth.
🌸 Blooming Time
-
Usually blooms from October to February in India.
-
Needs shorter daylight hours and cool temperatures to initiate flowers.
🪴 Repotting
-
Repot yearly after flowering — around early spring.
-
Use fresh soil and trim roots slightly before replanting.
🌿 Propagation
-
Easily propagated by stem cuttings or root division.
-
Take softwood cuttings (8–10 cm long) in early spring.
-
Root them in moist soil or cocopeat; they’ll root within 10–15 days.
🐛 Pests & Problems
| Problem | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Yellow leaves | Overwatering or poor drainage | Improve soil aeration |
