I wonder if you have heard of the plant Zephyranthes. Zephyranthes is also called leek orchid because the shape of its leaves looks a bit similar to leeks. Does this have some impression on you? Many people don’t know how to grow Zephyranthes. Today Huahua will tell you what you need to pay attention to when growing Zephyranthes.

Adequate lighting

Zephyranthes is a light-loving plant and is relatively resistant to high temperatures. The environment suitable for its growth is between 22-30 degrees. When we choose to raise it, we must pay attention to the location. It must be placed in a place facing the sun. It is best not to raise it in places like the north side of the house. Breeding must be carried out based on objective conditions.

Sandy soil

If you want to grow Zephyranthes well, soil is of course the first step, so when we choose soil, we should choose sandy soil for Zephyranthes. This kind of soil has good air permeability and water permeability, which is very suitable for the growth of Zephyranthes.

Watering

The reason why Zephyranthes is called Zephyranthes is partly because of its ability to resist the environment. We don’t need to treat it as a “greenhouse flower” when growing it, but we also don’t let the wind and rain destroy it. Just provide reasonable care. The water supply of Zephyranthes must be kept up. Zephyranthes likes a relatively humid environment. You must pay attention to watering it at ordinary times. When you are free, you can also sprinkle some water on the Zephyranthes with a small spray bottle to keep the flowers and leaves moist.

Fertilization

When fertilizing Zephyranthes, you can choose some organic fertilizers or some compound fertilizers, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium fertilizers, etc. The frequency of fertilization does not need to be too high. Generally speaking, you can fertilize once every two or three months. Organic fertilizers can ensure the nutrients for the growth of Zephyranthes, and compound fertilizers can make the plants grow fast and strong. They both play a big role.

I have introduced to you the cultivation method of Zephyranthes. If you want the Zephyranthes to become more lush and bloom more than the entire pot, you can use the division method to propagate Zephyranthes. Compared with bulb planting, the division method is much simpler and easier to use. I hope you can succeed in propagating it.

There are many kinds of Zephyranthes on the market now. In addition to the most basic pink and light pink colors, there are many more colorful varieties for everyone to grow. If you like Zephyranthes, why not try planting them in pots at home!
