养护难度

寿命

作为品种的寿命数据较少

体型

皋月是高度约0.5-1米的常绿灌木。盆景中按花盆造形

浇水

肥料（4月、花后的6月、9-10月）

光照与放置位置

喜欢阳光，但夏日的阳光会导致叶烧和根部受伤。年幼的树木要充分晒太阳，在树形维持阶段要半日阴。确保通风。

浇水

喜欢水分，但根系细弱、怕过湿。春季每天1-2次，夏季2-3次，冬季以2-3天1次为目标。避免在高温日间浇水。

温度与越冬

有耐寒性，但怕冬天的冷风。需要在檐下等处保护，防止盆土结冰。

用土与换盆

以鹿沼土为主的酸性粗质土壤。换盆在花后立即进行（6月）或秋季（9月下旬-10月上旬）。

肥料

新芽固定的4月左右、花后6月、9-10月，每月施用1次固体肥料。缺肥会导致枝条枯死。

修剪与整姿

花芽在7-8月中旬形成，所以摘芽・修剪要在花后6月中完成（关东以西地区到7月初旬）。金属丝造型在4月和9-10月进行。

病虫害与注意事项

病虫害较多的树种，要注意军配虫、红蜘蛛、蚜虫和蓟马。由于易从株底长出长枝，发现后要尽早从根部整理。

关于光琳皋月

Korin is a purplish-red Satsuki azalea bred from 'Kozan' and 'Ogata'. Its dense sword-shaped blooms, reliable flowering, and hardy nature make it an easy, rewarding choice for bonsai beginners.

开始养护光琳皋月前需要了解的7件事

1. 1Light & Airflow

   Korin thrives in full sun with good air circulation outdoors. In the height of summer, move it to bright, indirect light during the hottest part of the day to prevent leaf scorch, and keep it under an eave in winter to shield it from frost.

2. 2Watering Basics

   Water thoroughly until it drains from the pot's base once the soil surface has dried. Watch closely for dryness during summer, when flower buds are forming, and water more sparingly in winter, keeping the soil slightly on the dry side.

3. 3Well-Draining Soil

   Like other Satsuki azaleas, Korin prefers acidic, well-draining soil. A mix based on kanuma pumice helps prevent root rot, and a ready-made Satsuki/azalea potting mix is a convenient option.

4. 4When to Repot

   Early summer, right after flowering ends, is the best time to repot. Since roots fill the pot readily, repotting every two to three years — either into a slightly larger pot or the same one after removing old soil — keeps the plant vigorous.

5. 5Pruning & Feeding

   Because Korin grows vigorously, cut back the branches right after flowering to maintain its shape. Applying a slow-release solid fertilizer after pruning supports next year's flower buds; avoid feeding during the height of summer and winter.

6. 6Choosing a Plant

   Since Korin flowers freely, look for a plant with buds packed densely along the branch tips for a fuller bloom. Glossy leaves and smooth, unblemished bark are also good signs of a healthy, vigorous plant.

7. 7Watch for Pests

   Poor airflow can invite spider mites and lace bugs, so check the undersides of leaves regularly. During the rainy season, thin out crowded branches to keep air moving and prevent fungal problems caused by excess humidity.
