So she gets through the winter safely

Frankincense plants are very sensitive to frost

The frankincense plant does not tolerate sub-zero temperatures at all. Ten degrees are actually too cool for her. If you have frankincense plants perennial maintain you must therefore overwinter them in a frost-free place in the house.

How to properly overwinter an incense plant

You should bring an incense plant to your winter quarters by October at the latest. You can cut it back beforehand so that it doesn't take up so much space. The ideal temperatures for wintering are ten to twelve degrees.

Do not place the plants too dark. During the winter, the frankincense plant is only watered very sparsely so that the root ball does not dry out completely. There is no fertilization at all in winter.

Maintain after the winter break

From March onwards, you can take the frankincense plant out of the winter quarters. Gradually get them used to more light and warmth. Don't put the plants right back on the ground

balcony and certainly not in the direct sun.

Replace the old plant substrate to ensure the supply of nutrients. You should repot ampel plants in spring. You must not repotted frankincense plants for the first few weeks fertilize.

In the beginning, do not water too heavily and too often. The frankincense plant first has to get used to larger amounts of water.
