These flowers wither in summer.
If you want to learn about the little knowledge of flower cultivation that causes these flowers to wither in summer, the following introduction is provided by our site editor for everyone.
The weather is getting hotter, and many of our flowers that prefer cool environments are starting to change. Originally, the flowers are blooming beautifully with green leaves, but as the temperature rises, it is found that in a short time, these flowers begin to have many yellow leaves and wither.
Many times, our flower friends see these flowers withering and think they are dead, so they throw them away. In fact, they are not dead, but the environment is not suitable for their growth, so they choose to enter a dormant state to maintain their lives. As long as we handle them properly, they will sprout and bloom again in autumn.
1. Cyclamen
Cyclamen is the main ornamental flower in autumn and winter, with a particularly long flowering period, which can last from autumn to summer.
With the temperature rising in spring, cyclamen flowers will decrease and yellow leaves will gradually increase. At this time, you should promptly cut off the withered old leaves of cyclamen and also cut off the remaining flowers.
Pruning the old leaves and remaining flowers can not only enhance the ventilation of the plant but also avoid unnecessary nutrient consumption.
After pruning, the usage of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be increased to nurture the bulb before cyclamen enters dormancy. Only by nurturing the bulb properly can it bloom better in autumn.
In summer, with the hot weather, cyclamen will enter a dormant period, and the leaves above the ground will turn yellow in a short time. At this point, watering and fertilizing should be stopped to allow cyclamen to enter a natural dormant state.
These flowers wither in summer.
After all the leaves wither, cut off the dead leaves and place the pot in a shady place where it won't get rained on. You can also dig out the cyclamen bulb, dry it in a cool place, wrap it with newspaper, and store it in a cool and ventilated place.
When autumn comes and the temperature drops, you can plant cyclamen back into the pot, water it, and cyclamen will slowly sprout new buds.
2. Calla lily
Many flower friends buy calla lily盆栽 in spring. Calla lily indeed has beautiful flowers. However, many flower friends find that as the weather gets hot, calla lilies start to have many yellow leaves and stop blooming. In fact, this is a signal that they are about to enter a dormant period.
Calla lily is a rare bulbous flower that prefers heavy and sticky soil. Calla lily loves water, does not tolerate drought, heat, or cold. It will enter dormancy when the temperature exceeds 30 degrees in summer and when it is below 5 degrees in winter.
When calla lilies have many yellow leaves in summer, stop fertilizing, place them in a cool and ventilated place, control watering, and when they fully enter dormancy, stop watering and avoid rain. They will sprout and bloom again after being watered in autumn.
