What season do lotus flowers bloom?
The article brought to you by the editor discusses the season when lotus flowers bloom and some green plant maintenance tips related to the blooming time of lotus flowers. Let's proceed with the introduction by the editor.
When it comes to the question of when lotus flowers bloom, many maintenance experts have already given clear conclusions, which is from late June to October. Here, the editor will not elaborate further. Instead, I just want to use Yang Wanli's poem "Xiaochu Jingci Temple Sending Lin Zifang" to illustrate my point of view.
In the poem, the month of June refers to the lunar June, as the flower maintenance experts have said that the blooming time of lotus flowers should be in the solar late June. Yang Wanli's "Endless green lotus leaves reaching the sky, and the unique red lotus flowers reflecting the sun" already indicates the season when lotus flowers are in full bloom. Such a scene is not quite suitable in the solar June, so I infer it is the lunar June, because the lunar June is much later, which corresponds to the solar mid-July.
Exactly, the lotus flower festival in Baiyangdian, Baoding, Hebei, is from July 23rd to September 23rd in the solar calendar, which is the best time for lotus flowers to bloom in Baiyangdian. When I visited, I also saw the beautiful scene of "Endless green lotus leaves reaching the sky, and the unique red lotus flowers reflecting the sun." This shows that the blooming of lotus flowers is as the flower maintenance experts said, in late June in the solar calendar. However, due to different temperatures in various regions, the blooming time varies. For example, lotus flowers in Hainan bloom the earliest, while those in Heilongjiang in the northeast bloom the latest. Nevertheless, lotus flowers bloom in the local summer.
How to make lotus flowers bloom more vividly?
Light: Lotus flowers are fond of sunlight. To make lotus flowers bloom earlier and more vividly, we can cultivate them in ample sunlight. However, smaller lotus flowers should be kept in a moderately shaded area, especially when exposed to strong sunlight in summer. After the lotus flowers grow leaves, they can be placed in ample sunlight for maintenance, which can enhance photosynthesis and make the leaves more vigorous.
Pruning: If there are too many leaves on the lotus, we can replant the withered and dense leaves in the water. This is more conducive to ventilation and light transmission of the leaves and can reduce excessive nutrient loss, thereby making the lotus grow better and bloom more vividly. Leaves planted in river mud can also play the role of "turning into spring mud to protect flowers."
What season do lotus flowers bloom?
Fertilization: When planting lotus flowers, some base fertilizer or decomposed leaf soil, pond mud, and other fertilizers should be added to make the lotus grow more vigorously. During the growth period of lotus flowers, we can also apply thin nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium fertilizers, but the amount of nitrogen fertilizer should be less. It is also possible to bury some decomposed manure around the lotus, which can make the lotus grow more vigorously, bloom more, and be more vivid.
Watering: Some flower enthusiasts might ask, do lotus flowers need watering when growing in water? This is indeed the case, as the water requirement varies at different stages of lotus growth. For example, in the early stage of growth, the water level should be shallow. After the lotus grows leaves, more water is needed, but not too much to cover the leaves. After the lotus flowers bloom, less water is needed to facilitate photosynthesis and allow the rhizomes to grow faster, but not too little.
Summary
When do lotus flowers bloom? My answer is also in late June, and due to different temperatures in various regions, the blooming time of lotus flowers also varies. To make lotus flowers bloom more beautifully and fragrant, they need ample sunlight, appropriate pruning of dense and withered leaves, and application of base fertilizer when planting, followed by frequent application of thin phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. Early on, less water, more water during blooming, and less water after blooming can make the lotus bloom vividly.
