Bonsais that can bloom beautiful flowers are popular with everyone, such as the peony with its large flowers, the elegant orchid, and the joyous azalea... Among them, there is a kind of flower that resembles lanterns in shape and also looks like inverted hanging golden bells. The flowers have bright colors, and the branches and leaves are lush, making it deeply loved by many. This is the inverted golden bell. But do you know? If the inverted golden bell is well-cared for and some daily details are in place, it can bloom all year round. Let's take a look!
1. Fertilizer Supply
If you want the inverted golden bell to bloom all year round, the supply of fertilizer is indispensable. Its fertilizer should be prepared sufficiently before potting, which is reflected in the proportion and selection of garden soil. A potting soil formed by the combination of decomposed leaf soil, sandy loam soil, and decomposed cake fertilizer will be more beneficial to the growth of the inverted golden bell's branches and leaves in the early stage and will basically not require additional bottom fertilizer to meet basic growth fertilizer needs. When the growing period arrives, the supply of fertilizer needs to be frequent. About every 10-14 days, apply a thin liquid fertilizer that combines nitrogen and phosphorus. If the fertilizer supply is not adequate, it will be difficult for the inverted golden bell to sprout new flower buds after blooming once, making it impossible to bloom all year round.
2. Water Management
If you want the inverted golden bell to grow with lush branches and leaves, daily water management should not be neglected. In addition to choosing a pot and potting soil with good drainage and breathability, daily watering should not accumulate water, nor should it be too dry. Water management in the summer is particularly important, as the rise in temperature increases the transpiration of branches and leaves, and the soil itself has a strong evaporation capacity. Remember not to overwater and also ensure good ventilation.
3. Proper Pinching
The pinching of the inverted golden bell should occur during daily care, not in the early or peak growth stages. This is because the inverted golden bell has the habit of producing flower buds in the leaf axils of new shoots. Pinching can stimulate the sprouting of new branches, resulting in more branching and thus more flowers. Pinching should start from the seedling stage, and generally, about 15-20 days after pinching, the new branches can bloom bright flowers. Therefore, multiple pinching can extend the blooming period, and combined with fertilization and watering, it is not difficult to achieve blooming all year round.
The inverted golden bell has unique flower shapes, long blooming periods, and high ornamental value, especially when placed in the living room, it can enhance the style of the room significantly. If you want the inverted golden bell to bloom all year round, the daily maintenance work needs to be more detailed. Of course, in addition to this, it is also necessary to make some corresponding adjustments based on the preferences of the inverted golden bell, considering different seasons and environments. With more effort and time spent, the effect of lush branches and leaves with flowers blooming all year round will naturally be achieved.
