What is going on with the senecio cruentus flowers blooming less and lessToday's focus is to introduce why senecio cruentus flowers bloom less and less, as well as the green plant flower care skills for the senecio cruentus flowers that bloom in clusters. Let's follow the editor to find out more!The leaves of senecio cruentus are succulent and thick, with a bright green color. They bloom abundantly with vibrant and rich colors. Even ordinary people without flower-growing experience can cultivate them well. However, over time, many flower enthusiasts find that their senecio cruentus flowers bloom less and less each year, with some only blooming a few flowers after a few years. The continuous decline in blooming of senecio cruentus is mainly due to the following four reasons. Finding the right reasons and making improvements can make blooming in clusters simple.Branches agingAlthough senecio cruentus has a tree-like shape, it is different from ordinary woody plants as it is a succulent plant with succulent leaves and stems. These succulent branches will age continuously as they grow, leading to reduced vitality and greatly weakened flowering ability. If a senecio cruentus plant has a large number of aging branches with few new branches sprouting, it will result in fewer flowers.In addition, senecio cruentus with aging branches often has aging roots as well. The weakened ability of roots to absorb nutrients and water results in an insufficient supply of nutrients and water to the flowering branches, further exacerbating the non-flowering condition. Later on, not only the flowering branches but even the leaves will grow sparsely due to insufficient nutrition.Usually, we should conduct a major pruning after the first bloom of senecio cruentus in spring. Cut the overgrown branches short and remove the dried, diseased, and weak branches. This can reduce nutrient consumption and encourage the branches to sprout more new ones, solving the problem of aging branches.What is going on with the senecio cruentus flowers blooming less and lessTo solve the problem of root aging, it is necessary to change the flower pot of senecio cruentus once a year during spring or autumn. When changing the pot, trim the aging roots with a sterilized pair of scissors, lightly cutting the bottom part of the fibrous roots to promote new root growth and make the roots vibrant.Compact soil lacking nutrientsMany potted senecio cruentus in the flower market use garden soil with high粘性 to save costs. Although garden soil is cheap, it is particularly sticky and heavy, easily compacting into hard clumps, and the soil becomes harder the longer the plant is cultivated. The roots cannot grow normally in such a soil environment, causing the senecio cruentus to become thinner and weaker, with delicate branches and significantly reduced flowering.The solution to compacted soil is the same as the solution to root aging. Both require changing the pot for senecio cruentus during the cool spring and autumn seasons. Remove the compacted hard soil and replace it with soft, breathable, and fertile soil.Long-term lack of fertilizerSenecio cruentus is a plant that thrives on fertilizer, especially in the spring and autumn seasons when the weather is cool, showing significant changes every few days. At this time, the nutrients in the soil alone cannot meet its growth requirements, and it is necessary to supplement fertilizers regularly to provide additional nutrition for the plant.
