Key points for the four-season maintenance of blue star flowers

Key points for the maintenance of blue star flowers in spring and autumn

Spring, summer and autumn are the peak growth seasons for blue star flowers, and some characteristics of spring and autumn are similar, such as light conditions and temperature conditions. In daily maintenance, the specific operations of these two seasons are also very similar.

The temperatures in spring and autumn are more suitable for the growth of blue star flowers. There is generally no significant drop or rise in temperature. The light duration is longer and relatively mild, allowing the blue star flowers to be exposed to more sunlight to prevent them from growing too tall.

In spring and autumn, the blue star flower must be watered sufficiently and water and fertilizer management must be done well. Generally, watering and fertilizing should be done at intervals, and watering should be done thoroughly. One thing to note when fertilizing is that the blue star flower will consume a lot of nutrients when flowering, and nutrients must be replenished frequently. Fertilizer can be applied frequently, but it should be applied thinly and frequently.

In spring and autumn, blue star flowers can be propagated by cuttings.

Key points for summer care of blue star flowers

The weather is hot in summer, with high temperatures and strong sunshine. It is not the best growing environment for blue star flowers. When the sun is too strong, be careful to block the sun, but don't overdo it.

In summer, blue star flowers require relatively high air humidity, but due to the large evaporation, they need to be watered frequently. You can check the growth of the plants every day to see if they need to be watered every day.

Key points for winter care of blue star flowers

The suitable growth temperature of blue star flower is 20-30 degrees. It is unlikely to reach this temperature in winter.
