How to plant narcissus
Today's focus is on the introduction of bulbous flowers - narcissus, how to plant narcissus, and the following is a comprehensive introduction.
Many flower enthusiasts will raise a pot of narcissus at home every winter. Narcissus may seem simple, but there are many intricacies involved. Therefore, this article summarizes the issues that need to be paid attention to in the daily maintenance of narcissus.
Q:When does narcissus bloom
A:The approximate blooming time is from mid-December of the current year to the end of February of the following year. The blooming time of narcissus can be controlled artificially. When the maintenance environment temperature is high, the flowers bloom earlier. If the temperature is relatively low, the blooming time will be postponed. Therefore, flower enthusiasts can control the flowering period appropriately based on this.
Q:Why does narcissus need to be carved
A:Narcissus does not necessarily need to be carved, so flower enthusiasts can decide whether to carve it based on their own needs. The purpose of carving narcissus is shaping, simply put, it is to interfere with the narcissus's form artificially to achieve the desired effect (as shown in the picture below).
Additionally, uncut narcissus bulbs will also grow and bloom, but the time for the main bud and the side bud to break through the bulb is different, which may cause the flower stems to be of different lengths, making the whole pot of flowers look unattractive. Cutting the bulb can make it easier for the side buds to break through and basically maintain the same height as the main bud of the mother core.
Q:Can narcissus leaves be eaten
A:Often, flower enthusiasts joke about using narcissus as scallions (meaning they don't bloom), and some people really ask if narcissus leaves can be eaten. It can be said responsibly here that the leaves of narcissus flowers are not edible because narcissus contains various alkaloids, with the bulbs having the most, and although the stems and leaves contain less, they do have some. It is said that animals that eat them may experience spasms, pupil dilation, and severe diarrhea, and humans will definitely be poisoned if they eat them.
What to do when narcissus fadesThe reblooming rate of narcissus is not very high (mainly due to the environmental needs of narcissus), and some flower enthusiasts choose to plant it in the ground after it fades, reportedly taking about three years to rebloom. Of course, there is also the possibility of some enthusiasts managing to get it to rebloom the second year.
Because narcissus is not expensive, it is generally bought new every year!
Can the fallen narcissus be cut offToo high environmental temperature causes the narcissus to grow too much, and even if the narcissus falls, we cannot cut it off easily. The number of narcissus flowers is limited and cannot continuously appear. Theoretically, the number of flower spikes it will produce has already been determined the previous year. Therefore, the flower spikes cannot be cut!
If the narcissus leaves fall before the flowers bloom, can they be cut off? If only the leaves are cut, it is possible, but be careful not to cut the flower spikes when cutting, and try to leave them higher.
Even if the narcissus falls, it is still connected. If we don't cut it, we can tie the narcissus with a string to prevent it from falling again.
