How to care for a long-lived flower pot plant
Let me share some small experiences on how to care for a long-lived flower pot plant and the cultivation methods of long-lived flowers. If there are any mistakes, please feel free to correct them!
Long-lived flowers are relatively common plants in life, with high ornamental value, very suitable for potting at home. However, most people cultivate them outdoors because they don't know how to care for long-lived flower pot plants and therefore don't keep them indoors. In fact, it is very simple to cultivate long-lived flowers at home. Let's follow the editor to learn about the cultivation methods of long-lived flower pot plants.
【One, how to care for a long-lived flower pot plant】
Long-lived flowers are quite suitable for indoor cultivation, and it is also a simple task to pot them. Since long-lived flowers prefer to grow in warm and humid environments, it is best to place them on the balcony or in the living room when cultivating indoors, but the plant must receive sufficient sunlight every day.
Moreover, in order to pot this plant well, it is necessary to water and fertilize it appropriately. Never overwater or over-fertilize, as this can cause the plant to die from root rot. Also, the plant's growing environment must be ventilated, or it may easily develop diseases and pests.
【Two, the cultivation methods of long-lived flower pot plants】
<1, Fertile soil>
When potting long-lived flowers, the first thing to choose is definitely the soil. It cannot use heavy clay soil, as this can lead to poor growth, root rot, and leaf drop, and in severe cases, cause the plant to die. The potting soil should be a mixture of 4 parts of leaf mold soil, 4 parts of garden soil, 2 parts of river sand, and a small amount of bone meal. This kind of growing medium is loose and fertile, has good drainage, and is slightly acidic, which is beneficial for root development.
<2, Regular watering>
How to care for a long-lived flower pot plant
Long-lived flowers, like other succulent plants, contain a lot of water and have strong drought resistance, so they don't require a lot of watering. During the growing period, just water thoroughly every 2-3 days to keep the potting soil slightly moist. In winter, when the temperature is low, it is especially important to control watering. Excessive watering, poor drainage, or overly wet potting soil can easily lead to root rot.
<3, Sufficient sunlight>
During the growing season, except for the midsummer when it needs to be shaded to maintain 60% light transmission, normal sunlight is fine for other seasons. Avoid excessive shade, as this can easily cause the branches to become elongated and the plant to become loose. It is necessary to rotate the pot regularly during the growing season to adjust the light position, allowing for even light exposure and promoting balanced growth in all directions.
<4, Temperature requirements>
Long-lived flowers are not cold-tolerant, with a suitable growth temperature of 15-25°C. High temperatures above 30°C in summer can hinder growth, while indoor temperatures of 12-15°C are needed in winter. Below 5°C, the leaves turn red, and the flowering period is delayed. If the room temperature exceeds 24°C during the flowering period in winter and spring, it will inhibit flowering, while temperatures around 15°C will promote continuous flowering.
<Conclusion>
Through the detailed introduction above, I believe everyone now knows how to care for a long-lived flower pot plant. In fact, it is very simple to pot and cultivate long-lived flowers at home. Just water appropriately and fertilize reasonably, and the long-lived flowers will grow lush and leafy. However, to cultivate long-lived flowers well, it is best to follow the cultivation methods mentioned above.
