What are the semi-cold-tolerant flowers?
Summary: This article discusses the topic of semi-cold-tolerant flowers and recommendations for cold-tolerant flowers that can survive outdoors during winter. It provides some great tips and knowledge that are worth collecting!
The biggest fear in winter flower care is frost damage. However, among the flowers we often grow, there are some cold-tolerant ones that are not afraid of the cold. These flowers not only bloom in the snow but also benefit from lower temperatures to enhance their blooming. Below, I have compiled a list of 5 such flowers for easy reference and collection.
First, Hellebore
Hellebore is not commonly grown in China, but it is a classic garden flower abroad. Its colorful and vibrant flowers are loved by many. The most notable feature of this flower is its cold tolerance, even in the depths of winter, it continues to bloom, and the chilling effect of low temperatures can even promote better blooming.
How to grow Hellebore? The key to successfully growing this plant is surviving the summer, because while it is not afraid of the cold in winter, it is very sensitive to heat in summer. If the temperature reaches 35 degrees Celsius with intense sunlight, it can easily get sunburned.
Second, Camellia
Camellia is a famous flower in China. Its blooms are like elegant guests with a refined and sophisticated charm that captivates onlookers. Many people enjoy growing camellias. It naturally has strong cold tolerance and can survive outdoors in most parts of the south. Due to its strong resilience, it has also been chosen for landscaping and community greening in many areas.
How to grow Camellia? If you want to grow camellias well, you must establish a fixed watering routine for them, keeping the soil moist but not allowing it to become severely dry. Additionally, camellias are acid-loving flowers, so the soil should not be alkaline, and the sunlight should not be too strong, as they prefer semi-shady conditions.
Third, Christmas Cactus
This flower is very interesting; it belongs to the cactus family but can produce stunningly beautiful flowers. The bright flower colors, combined with the claw-like shape of the blooms, make it very popular. Moreover, it has some cold tolerance and can still bloom indoors during winter.
