KalanchoeIf you want the Kalanchoe to bloom out of the pot, you must pay attention to topping, cuttings and fertilizing. As a light-loving plant, it needs sunlight. Once it blooms in the pot, it is possible that it will bloom until next spring! 1. ToppingIf the Kalanchoe has only a few branches and stems, it will be difficult for it to bloom into a flower ball no matter how well you take care of it. So the first thing we need to do is to top it off so that the longevity plant can grow more stems and leaves. Refer to the picture below, pinch off the tender buds at the top, and after a week, new leaves will grow from the sides. 2. CuttingsDon't throw away the branches you pinched off, we can use them for cuttings to make the flowerpot look fuller. This makes it easier for the pot to bloom. Arrange the cuttings and remove the lower leaves, leaving only the top two pairs of leaves. Prepare clean sand as the cutting medium. Bury 1/3 of the stems in the sand and water thoroughly. After about 3 weeks, the cuttings will develop roots and a large number of new shoots, and they will soon burst the pot! 3. Fertilize before flowering:Before flowering, water the plant with decomposed rice water or bean cake water once every half a month. You can also buy special fertilizers for use. Remember to apply fertilizer frequently and in small amounts to accumulate sufficient fertilizer for later growth. BougainvilleaIf you want Bougainvillea to bloom, the most important thing is to control water. If this is achieved, how long will it take for the market to explode? Moreover, the flowering period of bougainvillea is very long. When all other flowers are withering, it is the only one that blooms, which is so pleasing to the eye! 1. PruningAs shown in the picture below, cut off the overgrown branches, weak branches and diseased branches to avoid consuming nutrients for flowering. 2. CuttingsThe branches pruned from the top can be used for cuttings. First, soak the branches in rooting water. After drying, insert the branches into clean sand, making sure the buds are placed above the soil surface. 2. FertilizationOne month before flowering, spray organic fertilizer once a week. You can use fertilizers such as fermented melon and fruit peels, fish intestines, and broken bones. 4. Water controlToo much watering will cause the bougainvillea to only grow leaves but no flowers. Water must be controlled one month before flowering, that is, when the soil becomes completely dry, like the soil in the picture below, you can water it slightly. Only in this way can bougainvillea grow flower buds. 5. SunbatheCompared with the bougainvillea grown outdoors, the bougainvillea grown on the balcony has more and brighter flowers. If possible, place it outdoors to receive full sunlight. If there is no way to place it outdoors, then place it on the south balcony. Osmanthus fragransThe autumn wind blows and the sweet osmanthus smells fragrant. Just thinking of that refreshing sweet fragrance, Huahua can't help but be tempted! 1. PruningIf the osmanthus in your home looks like the picture below, with overgrown branches and weak branches marked with red lines, it is best to cut them off to prevent them from robbing the nutrients for flowering. 2. CuttingsCuttings can make the pot surface fuller. Cut off a few semi-lignified osmanthus branches, 10 cm each, and place them in a cool and ventilated place to dry. Prepare a well-breathable cutting medium, such as river sand or perlite. Bury 1/3 of the cuttings and water thoroughly. Keep the soil moist, and new roots and new leaves will grow in about a month, and the plant will surely fill the pot. 3. FertilizationOsmanthus likes pig manure. You can go to the farm to ask for some, or buy it directly from online stores. If there is really no fertilizer, you can use decomposed cake fertilizer instead. Fertilize once every half a month. Remember not to apply too much at one time. Apply thin fertilizer frequently. 4. Adjust soil acidityOsmanthus prefers acidic soil. If the soil is too alkaline, it will be difficult for it to bloom. Therefore, when watering, add 1 to 2 drops of ferrous sulfate to adjust the pH value of the soil, so that you can bloom more perfect osmanthus. RoseAlthough the autumn rose flowers are not as numerous as the spring flowers, it is just as easy to bloom if they are properly maintained. 1. PruningThe reason why roses do not bloom is mostly because of untimely pruning, and the overgrown branches take away the nutrients that were originally intended for the flowers. Cut away the blind branches, being careful to use sharp scissors. 2. Horizontal pulling promotes the emergence of bamboo shootsSome roses only have one branch, which looks very weak and can be broken by a gust of wind. If new shoots emerge, they will appear stronger and bloom more. Hang a light object, such as a brush, on the branches of the rose and press the branches down horizontally. Or just tilt the flower pot, in fact, these are all ways to remove the top advantage, and new shoots will soon grow at the bottom, and there will be no pressure to burst the pot~ 3. FertilizationDuring the peak growth period, apply a thin layer of bean cake fertilizer once a week. During the bud formation period, apply fish offal fermentation fertilizer once a week to accumulate nutrients for flowering. chrysanthemumAutumn is here, time to enjoy chrysanthemums~ Chrysanthemums are very easy to bloom as long as you do the following! 1. Topping pruningFor example, the red circle in the picture below is a demonstration of a completed topping. 2. CuttingsInsert the pruned branches into the soil and water them thoroughly. Cover it with a film and remember to spray it with water to moisturize it every day, and you’ll be OK! A large pot of chrysanthemums is easy to own~ 3. Reduce sunlightChrysanthemum is a short-day plant. If you want it to bloom, you need to reduce the light exposure time appropriately. At night, the light at home will affect the differentiation of chrysanthemum flower buds, so it is best to keep it in a dark room at night. 4. Fertilize frequentlyBefore bud formation, apply diluted solution of crushed bones and fermented fertilizer once a week. After the flower buds grow, it is recommended to spray potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution once a week, so that the flowers will bloom more brightly and more. SchlumbergeraChristmas cactus is prone to rot and wilt due to improper maintenance. In fact, it is very easy to bloom out of the pot. The red flowers and overlapping leaves are so pleasing to the eye! 1. CuttingCut off a few strong branches, cut them into two sections, dip the lower section in rooting powder, and insert it into loose and breathable soil. 2. FertilizationEvery half a month, dig a hole next to the pot and pour some fermented organic fertilizer or fish bone meal into it, then cover it with soil. This can supplement the base fertilizer for the Christmas cactus and accumulate nutrients for flowering. 3. SunlightChristmas cactus is a short-day plant. If you want it to bloom, it only needs to receive 8 hours of light a day, and keep it in a dark room for the rest of the time. It will produce many flower buds in 20 days. When shade is needed, just put a cardboard box in it. Don't move it around, otherwise flower buds will not grow. camelliaCamellia is relatively difficult to grow, but it needs ventilation and sunlight. If the fertility conditions are met, it is easy to make the pot overflow. 1. PruningRefer to the red cross in the picture below and cut off weak branches, overgrown branches and diseased branches. Do not move the plants with flower buds for the time being. Wait until they bloom and then prune them back uniformly. 2. FertilizationSoak the compound fertilizer in water, dig two small holes on the edge of the pot, put the compound fertilizer in, cover with soil, water thoroughly, and let the compound fertilizer slowly seep in with the water. 3. Avoid frequent movementCamellia cannot be moved frequently because it takes some time for it to adapt to a new location, which consumes a lot of nutrients. If you move your camellia frequently, not only will it be delayed in flowering, it may also die. |
