How long can a raw stone flower live?
Xiaobian will answer questions about fleshy plants growing stone flowers. How long can a stone flower live? Please see the detailed introduction below.
Many flower friends have a question. Although there is no particularly accurate information on how long a stoneflower can live, there is still a rough range. It is said that the oldest stoneflower that can be verified in artificial cultivation is L. The clone of marmorata was collected 80 years ago! In addition, some netizens have also seen Mrs. Li of more than 100 years, so in general, the current verifiable raw stone flowers can live for about 80-100 years.
Other foreign translation of raw stone flowers, from the home of kites: Almost all cultivated raw stone flowers respond well to watering in the spring and autumn. This is consistent with the fact that some species accept winter precipitation under natural conditions and some species accept summer thunderstorms. In the northern hemisphere, the planting pattern of stoneflower flowers has completely changed; they do not reflect the characteristics inherited from their origin, and there is no longer the alternating "spring" of September that they crave. Stone flowers are sensitive to day length and temperature, rather than the seasonal shifts in April and December. Roughly summarized, watering arrangements in a year can be followed as follows: Late spring to late autumn: Good irrigation is needed nearly every 10 days, especially the wrinkles on the sides of plants that appear at night. The wrinkles only appear during the day are the result of overheating in the afternoon, which doesn't matter unless they show symptoms before they show burned conditions. Adequate irrigation is needed after they shed old leaves and before they bloom in late summer and early autumn.
Early winter: Do not water any water unless the plant appears to have shrunk severely or the visible and pollinated fruits do not appear to be developing properly.
Late winter: Give a little water nearly every 20 days, or more if the cracks in the plant do not widen and reveal new leaves.
Early Spring: One or two appropriate watering sessions, especially when new leaves appear wrinkled. Thales meyer, a distinguished british grower, told me that late winter and early spring watering is not recommended in england, where winter light is weak and is likely to delay the dissolution and absorption of old leaves. My advice would be more appropriate in sunny areas such as the southwest of the united states, southern italy and france, and all of south africa.
General considerations: No matter what season, after a particularly hot day, I will always spray raw stone flowers at night. They seem to respond well to this measure, and after all, their physiological activities are active at night, but experience shows that in England's cold, humid climate, this practice is unnecessary and may even be harmful to plants. My spraying habits are modeled on the experience of condensing water vapor into dew at night in the origin. However, spraying plants that keep old leaves for more than a year is not a good idea; these leaves will last for another year, no more or less. Alteration is equivalent to cycle!
The above is the experience and knowledge of how long raw stone flowers can live. I hope I can bring you some help after reading this article!
