But do you know when goldfish吊兰 blooms? Also, how to cultivate it to bloom more? Let's find out together below.
When do goldfish吊兰 bloom?
Goldfish吊兰 usually blooms in spring, autumn, and winter, which is between March and December. The blooming time varies depending on the maintenance environment. Generally, spring blooming occurs at the end of March and early May. Autumn blooming is around October, and winter blooming can occur in December.
How to cultivate goldfish吊兰 to bloom more?
1. Sufficient lighting
Although goldfish吊兰 is relatively shade-tolerant, it must get plenty of sun to bloom, especially in spring, autumn, and winter. Place it in a position with plenty of sunlight; in summer, to avoid sunburn, it can be placed in a bright location with scattered light.
2. Reasonable watering
Goldfish吊兰 has thick leaves and a very thick stem, with a strong ability to store water. If you want it to bloom during its flowering period, don't water it too frequently. If watered too much, it can lead to excessive stem growth, which easily causes no blooming. To make goldfish吊兰 bloom, don't water it too frequently. Generally, water it when the potting soil is completely dry, and it's okay to water it after one or two days. This is beneficial for it to differentiate flower buds and produce flower buds.
3. Supplementing fertilizer
Goldfish吊兰 can be supplemented with a multi-element mixed fertilizer during the growing season, and switch to a fertilizer rich in phosphorus and potassium elements in autumn. During the growing season, apply it once or twice a month, and in winter, if the temperature is maintained at around 15 degrees Celsius, you can use phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. Additionally, as goldfish吊兰 is about to enter the budding stage in autumn, applying a solution of monopotassium phosphate to the roots and喷施ing the leaves can result in obvious flower bud differentiation at the axils after three or four consecutive applications, which is beneficial for later blooming.
4. Pruning management
To prevent excessive growth of goldfish吊兰 branches and leaves, it is necessary to pinch the tips and top during the growing period to promote more branching, making the plant more full and round, which enhances the ornamental effect. More branches mean more flowers.
5. Environmental ventilation
Goldfish吊兰 is most afraid of being kept in a stuffy environment. If the cultivation environment has poor air circulation, it can cause the leaves to wilt and turn yellow, which will inhibit its normal growth. Moreover, if goldfish吊兰 is in the flowering season, the flower buds cannot grow normally and it is difficult to bloom. Therefore, it is important to ensure good ventilation.
The above introduction to when goldfish吊兰 blooms and the specific introduction of goldfish吊兰 cultivation methods and skills are hoped to bring some flower knowledge to green plant enthusiasts.
