Agapanthus is relatively easy to grow. Provide it with sufficient light and direct sunlight for a short period of time, but not for a long time. Just water the soil thoroughly each time. It can bloom continuously from summer to autumn every year. The flowers are particularly beautiful and the colors are also very rich. It can be used as a decorative plant in the courtyard garden, and can also be grown as a potted plant indoors. How to grow agapanthusWhen growing agapanthus, you can choose flower pots with good drainage and air permeability and sandy loam that is rich in humus, loose and fertile. Provide appropriate shade when the sunlight is strong, and release the plant to receive light outdoors when the indoor light is weak. Water the plant to keep the soil slightly moist and dry. Fertilize according to the growth status of the plant, and spray with pesticides to treat diseases and insect pests. 1. Pot soil: To grow agapanthus, you can use a mixture of humus, thick garden soil, river sand and bone meal to make the culture soil. Before filling the pot with soil, cover the bottom of the flowerpot with a layer of broken tiles to facilitate drainage. Before planting, expose the culture soil to the sun for 1 to 2 days to disinfect and sterilize it. 2. Lighting Agapanthus likes sunlight. In spring and winter, the indoor light is weak, so it should be often released outdoors to receive full sunlight. In summer and autumn, the direct sunlight is strong, so it can be released outdoors to receive light in the morning or afternoon when the temperature does not exceed 30℃, or it can be directly cultivated in a place indoors with sufficient scattered light. 3. Moisture: Agapanthus likes a humid environment. When the environment is drier, the plants and the surrounding environment should be sprayed to increase humidity. Agapanthus likes slightly moist and dry soil. When the temperature is high in summer, water it once in the morning and evening. When the temperature is low in winter, water it once every 25 days. In spring and autumn, water it when the soil surface is slightly dry to keep the soil moist. 4. Fertilization: Agapanthus should be fertilized in small amounts and multiple times, with thin fertilizers applied frequently and in the soil near the roots to avoid excessive fertilizer concentration that may cause fertilizer damage to the plant and damage the root tissue structure. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizers should be applied during spring budding, before flower bud differentiation in summer, and after the flowers fade in autumn. Precautions for the maintenance of AgapanthusWhen caring for Agapanthus, you must pay attention to high temperatures and avoid long-term direct sunlight. At the same time, it can tolerate semi-shade but is afraid of waterlogging. It is a little cold-resistant but not severe cold-resistant. The suitable temperature for growth is 15∽25 degrees. When giving sufficient water in the summer, do not accumulate water. Pay attention to the amount of watering, otherwise the roots will rot. |
