Clivia is a flowering plant that many flower lovers like to grow. Its flowers are beautiful and have the beautiful meaning of "integrity". Moreover, Clivia has a beautiful shape and is dignified and elegant. It is a very high-quality ornamental flower. Many people like to grow it in pots at home for viewing. If you want Clivia to bloom, you need 14 or more leaves, at least 12. If the seedlings are not old enough, there will not be enough leaves. Even if you are anxious, it will be useless. So if you want Clivia to bloom, you need some skills. Tip 1: Adequate lightingAlthough Clivia dislikes direct exposure to strong light, it prefers a growing environment with sufficient soft light. If it is placed in a dark place indoors for a long time, the plant will be in the stage of vegetative growth for a long time and will not be able to enter the stage of development and maturity of the reproductive organs, which will cause the plant to bloom slowly or not bloom at all. It is recommended that except for the summer when it needs 60% shading maintenance, it can be placed indoors in a location with soft light or scattered light for maintenance in other seasons. When Clivia receives sufficient sunlight, it will continue to photosynthesize, which will eventually promote flowering. Tip 2: Adequate nutritionClivia likes a fertile growing environment, especially when the plant enters the flowering period, it needs to consume more nutrients. If the plant is not repotted or fertilized for a long time, the soil will be in a relatively poor state, which will eventually lead to delayed flowering or no flowering. It is recommended to repot the plant every 1 to 2 years, using nutrient-rich soil with coarse sand, or other tiles that facilitate drainage, etc. In addition, fertilization is needed during the growth and flowering periods. Use nutrient-rich cake fertilizer, mix it with clean water, and apply it once every 30 days. During the flowering period, use potassium dihydrogen phosphate instead. Tip 3: Keep it moistClivia is a flower plant that likes moisture, and especially hates a long-term dry environment. If the soil and air are both dry, the reproductive organs will not develop and mature, and eventually lead to late flowering or no flowering. It is recommended to maintain the humidity of the maintenance environment after entering autumn, and the humidity should generally not be lower than 50%. How to maintain humidity?First, when the soil is less than three centimeters, you can carry out maintenance management by watering it thoroughly; secondly, increase the humidity by spraying water through the air; finally, avoid waterlogging and over-humidity in the soil. Tip 4: Use phosphorus and potassium fertilizersThe most indispensable fertilizers for flowering plants to bloom are phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizers are the most effective flower-promoting fertilizers on the market. If your Clivia does not bloom for a long time, it is very likely that it is lacking in phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizers can also be used during the water control period, but the dilution ratio must be diluted a little, 1800 times to 2000 times, and then diluted with water for spraying leaves or irrigating roots. Common phosphorus and potassium fertilizers include potassium dihydrogen phosphate or Huaduoduo No. 2. You can choose according to your preference. Tip 5: Temperature DifferenceTemperature difference is a problem that many friends tend to overlook when caring for Clivia. If you want Clivia to bloom, there must be a temperature difference of about 10 degrees. It is relatively simple to deal with the temperature difference problem in areas like Jiangsu and Zhejiang. As long as the minimum outdoor temperature is stable at above 5 degrees, the plants can be placed directly outdoors for maintenance. The temperature difference outdoors in spring is relatively large, which can fully meet the flowering needs of Clivia. In other areas, when the minimum temperature and temperature difference cannot be reached, human operation is required. Change the maintenance environment during the day and at night. It is recommended to place it outdoors during the day. The outdoor light is sufficient, which is also conducive to the flowering and growth of Clivia . |
