The goldfish吊兰 is a favorite indoor green potted plant for many people, with a large number of blooms. The flowers hang on the branches, complemented by green leaves, resembling little goldfish frolicking in the aquatic plants, very beautiful. But do you know when the goldfish吊兰 blooms? Also, how to care for it to produce more flowers? Let's find out together below.
When does the goldfish吊兰 bloom?
The goldfish吊兰 usually blooms in spring, autumn, and winter, which is between March and December. The blooming time varies depending on the care environment, generally in late March to early May in spring, around October in autumn, and possibly in December in winter.
How to care for goldfish吊兰 to produce more blooms?
1. Sufficient light
Although the goldfish吊兰 is relatively shade-tolerant, it must get plenty of sunlight to bloom, especially in spring, autumn, and winter. It should be placed in a sunny position. In summer, to avoid sunburn, it can be placed in a brighter position with scattered light.
2. Reasonable watering
The leaves of the goldfish吊兰 are thick, and the stems are very sturdy, with a strong ability to store water. If you want it to bloom during its flowering period, don't water too frequently. If you water too much, it can cause the branches to grow excessively, which can easily lead to no blooms. To make the goldfish吊兰 bloom, don't water too frequently. Generally, water it when the soil is dry for a day or two, which is conducive to the differentiation of flower buds and the growth of flower buds.
3. Supplementing fertilizer
During the growing season, a multi-element mixed fertilizer can be used to supplement the goldfish吊兰. In autumn, a fertilizer mainly containing phosphorus and potassium elements can be used. During the growing season, apply 1-2 times a month, and in winter, with the temperature maintained at around 15 degrees Celsius, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers can be used. In addition, as the goldfish吊兰 is about to enter the budding period in autumn, applying a solution of monopotassium phosphate to the roots and spraying the leaves, usually for three to four consecutive times, can result in obvious flower bud differentiation at the leaf axils, which is beneficial for blooming later on.
4. Pruning management
To prevent the goldfish吊兰 from growing excessively, it is often pinched and topped during the growing period to promote more branching, making the plant more full and round, enhancing the ornamental effect. More branches mean more flowers.
5. Environmental ventilation
The goldfish吊兰 is most afraid of being kept in a stuffy environment. If the air is not circulating in the breeding environment, it can cause the leaves to wilt and turn yellow, which will inhibit its normal growth. Moreover, if the goldfish吊兰 is in the flowering season and the flower buds cannot grow normally, it will be difficult to bloom. Therefore, it is important to ensure environmental ventilation.
