What are the flowers that are not cold-resistant
Do you know them? Let's take a look at the flowers that are not cold-resistant and the list of 6 winter-cold plants and their green plant maintenance tips. Here is a comprehensive introduction to follow.
In winter, it is necessary to maintain different flowers according to their growth habits to ensure proper care. Some cold-resistant flowers can safely overwinter in outdoor environments, while others need to be moved to warm rooms in advance, reduce watering and stop fertilizing, and get more sunlight to safely overwinter. Like the following 6 flowers, when the temperature is low in winter, they should be kept in a "dry" state, otherwise they are easily frostbitten, some may have root rot and yellow leaves, or even the whole plant may wither.
Desert Rose
The desert rose is a flower that prefers a warm and sunny environment. In winter maintenance, it is prone to problems such as root rot and yellowing and falling leaves. This is because it has poor cold resistance, and the plant can be easily frozen when the temperature is below zero. After entering winter, the potted plant needs to be moved indoors for maintenance to keep it safe during the winter.
Its robust stem can store a large amount of water. In winter, the plant grows slowly, or even stops growing completely. At this time, it is necessary to reduce watering to keep the potting soil slightly dry, which is more conducive to overwintering. If the potting soil is too moist and the indoor ventilation is poor, it is easy to cause root rot.
Cactus
The cactus is native to the arid desert areas and prefers warm and dry climates. When cultivated in pots at home, the plant is often frozen and the roots rot in winter.
Although this plant is easy to care for and can produce beautiful flowers, it still needs to be kept warm and protected from the cold in winter. When the temperature is below 5°C, the plant stops growing completely, and there is a risk of frostbite below zero. It is best to move the potted plant to a warm environment with heating and reduce watering while allowing it to get plenty of sun to increase its cold resistance.
Longevity Flower
Many people like to keep several pots of longevity flowers at home in winter. Its blooming period is in the winter and spring seasons. If well maintained, it can bloom around the Spring Festival. When in bloom, the flowers are colorful and vibrant, making them very beautiful and festive.
In winter, the growing environment temperature for longevity flowers should be kept above 15°C, and phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be supplemented several times. Do not water too frequently, as overly moist potting soil is not conducive to root absorption. During the bud formation period, ensuring 6 hours of sunlight daily can promote the rapid growth of flower buds and early blooming.
Snake Plant
The snake plant is a very suitable indoor ornamental plant with straight and bright leaves, and it also has a very good air-purifying effect. In winter, the leaves of the snake plant are often frostbitten and become soft and drooping.
Actually, many snake plants with rotting roots and soft leaves are caused by improper watering. It is relatively drought-tolerant and also afraid of waterlogging. If watering is done before the potting soil is completely dry, the soil will be moist for a long time, which can lead to闷root and root damage, causing the leaves to become soft and droopy. Therefore, in winter, it is necessary to reduce watering and keep the potting soil slightly dry, which is more conducive to overwintering.
Succulents
Many flower enthusiasts are fond of succulents and fill their balconies with various types of succulents, which become colorful and attractive in winter.
Succulents are not only susceptible to problems in summer but also very prone to problems in winter. Most succulents are not cold-resistant, and when the temperature is below zero, their fleshy stems and leaves can be frostbitten. To keep them safe during the winter, it is best to maintain an environmental temperature above 10°C and reduce watering to prevent the potting soil from being too moist, allowing the plants to overwinter smoothly.
Money Tree
In winter, when the temperature is low and doors and windows are closed, keeping a potted money tree at home is not only beautiful and elegant but also has a very good air-purifying effect. However, it is prone to root rot and yellow leaves, especially in winter, often leaving only an empty pot in the end.
The money tree prefers a warm and humid environment. When maintaining it in winter, it should be placed in a warm environment and frequently sprayed with water mist around the plant to prevent dry tips and yellow leaves. However, do not water too much, as its roots are delicate, and long-term moist potting soil can easily cause root rot and yellowing and withering of the leaves.
In winter, it is necessary to properly manage watering, fertilizing, and lighting based on the growth habits of the flowers and the maintenance environment to keep various flowers safe during the winter.
The above sharing of flowers that are not cold-resistant and the comprehensive introduction of 6 winter-cold plants and their maintenance hope to provide green plant enthusiasts with some relevant knowledge about green plants.
