What flowers have a short blooming period?
For most women, topics related to flowers with short blooming periods and the beauty that lasts only for a moment, such as flower cultivation, are worth exploring. Let's take a look together.
Today, Flower brings you an introduction to the top 5 flowers with the shortest blooming periods in the world. It's no exaggeration to call them "flowers that appear in a twinkling," as their beauty always happens in an instant.
One, Wheat Flower
First is the wheat flower. We awarded it the first place, and flower enthusiasts might think that the first place should be given to the epiphyllum. However, the wheat flower actually has a shorter blooming time, usually only 5 to 30 minutes. If you're not paying attention, you might miss it. If flower enthusiasts want to observe it, Flower's suggestion is that wheat flowers usually bloom 3 to 5 days after the wheat ears appear. Under normal weather conditions, they tend to bloom more in the morning and less in the afternoon. Moreover, temperature greatly affects blooming.
Flower enthusiasts may not be able to withstand this折腾 (torture), and Flower certainly can't. So Flower prefers to just look at pictures online. If flower enthusiasts manage to capture the moment when wheat flowers bloom, remember to share it.
Two, Epiphyllum
We placed the epiphyllum in second place. People often use "epiphyllum in a twinkling" to describe beautiful things that fade away in an instant. So how long does the epiphyllum's blooming period last? Flower tells you that it's only 1 to 2 hours. It's known as the "beauty under the moon" because it's so beautiful that even though there are many flowers with short blooming periods, only the epiphyllum is remembered for its brief appearance.
What flowers have a short blooming period?
Flower's科普 (popular science) classroom is now open. Why does the epiphyllum have such a short blooming period? This is because the epiphyllum's native habitat is in the tropical desert, where it's only cool at night. Therefore, blooming at night is a necessary measure to avoid the scorching sun. Shortening the blooming period can also reduce water loss, which is more conducive to its survival. Over generations, this has developed into the "epiphyllum in a twinkling."
Three, Cactus Flowers
Cacti can bloom, as many flower enthusiasts know, and many have seen them. In fact, the blooming time of cactus flowers is greatly related to their variety. Typically, cactus flowers bloom for 1 to 2 days. If conditions and luck are good, they may bloom a bit longer. They usually bloom in the summer, so many flower enthusiasts are excited to see their cacti blooming and share photos on social media, as this is truly a rare sight.
Four,吊兰 (Hanging Orchid)
Who among flower enthusiasts doesn't recognize the hanging orchid? It's one of the four gentlemen of flowers, but most people appreciate its leaves more. The hanging orchid can also bloom, with a blooming period of about 1 to 2 days. The small white flowers are very beautiful, pure, and lovely.
