What to do after the lucky flower fades

1. Flowering period

The flowering period of the lucky bamboo shoot is very long, it can last for more than two months, and basically not three months. Because he can only bloom once in his life, using all his nutrients to supply this bright red color. Therefore, after the flowers have withered, you can no longer continue to care for them. There is no other way but to cut off the wilted flowers. The leaves will also wither quickly and lose their ornamental value.

2. What to do

Although this plant cannot produce new flowers after it blooms, it will produce offspring to continue its life. Cut off the withered flowers, take out the roots, and observe whether new buds grow from the roots. If so, separate the new buds from the mother plant in time and plant another plant. After this the mother plant can be thrown away.

When planting new sprouts, it is best to replace the soil in the pot with new soil to ensure sufficient nutrients for planting the new sprouts. When the growth period of the lucky charm plant comes, it grows very fast, and you can soon enjoy new flowers. It usually blooms once a year. However, the plant does not grow when it blooms, that is, it stops growing when the flowering period comes. However, its roots remain alive for a period of time after the flowers fade, which also ensures the activity of the young shoots.

After that, the process will be repeated over and over again: blooming, withering, and using buds to cultivate, repeating the previous maintenance steps, and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery every year.
