With the acceleration of the pace of life, more and more people are beginning to pay attention to the maintenance of indoor green plants. As one of them, the potted mini rose, due to its unique ornamental value and vitality, is deeply loved by people. Many beginners encounter the situation where the mini rose droops during maintenance. This article will provide a detailed analysis of the reasons for the drooping of newly purchased potted mini roses and the solutions.
Reasons for the drooping of newly purchased potted mini roses1. Planting too deep
When newly purchased mini roses are planted, if planted too deep, it can lead to poor root respiration, which in turn affects the normal growth of the plant, causing the mini rose to droop.
2. Improper watering
Watering is a key step in maintaining potted mini roses. If watering is excessive or insufficient, it can lead to root damage in the mini rose, causing it to droop.
3. Insufficient sunlight
Mini roses enjoy sunlight. If they are kept in a dark environment for a long time, it will affect their photosynthesis, leading to slow growth of the plant, or even drooping.
4. Soil problems
Soil is the foundation of plant growth. If the soil is compacted and has poor breathability, it will affect the growth of the mini rose, causing the plant to droop.
5. Pest or disease damage
Pest or disease damage is one of the main reasons for the drooping of mini roses. Pests such as red spiders and scale insects, as well as diseases like leaf spot and root rot, can cause mini roses to droop.
