Gloxinia , with its small plant and bright colors, is the best choice for indoor potted plants , especially for plant lovers who like warm, humid and semi-shady environments. The following is the cultivation method of Gloxinia flowers of Gloxinia. 1. Suitable flower pots and soil Choose a shallow pot with good ventilation and avoid using a deep pot to prevent root rot. Use loose and breathable soil mixed with peat soil, leaf mold and perlite in a ratio of 1:1:1. 2. Reasonable fertilizer and water management Apply thin fertilizer frequently, starting from spring germination, and apply thin liquid fertilizer once a week. After the flower buds are formed, apply Huaduoduo No. 2 or potassium dihydrogen phosphate fertilizer once a week to ensure that the flowers continue to bloom. Be sure to water thoroughly when the soil is dry, and avoid waterlogging and humid environments that may cause stem rot. When watering, avoid the leaves to prevent them from rotting due to water retention. 3. Appropriate lighting It can receive sufficient sunlight in spring, autumn and winter, and should be placed in semi-shade in summer to avoid sunburn from strong sunlight. Gloxinia is shade-tolerant and suitable for potted plants on indoor balconies or windowsills. 4. Timely pruning After the flowers fade, cut off the remaining flowers in time to prevent them from forming seeds and consuming nutrients. Proper pruning can promote branching of the plant and achieve further flowering. 5. Maintain a suitable temperature Keep the environment warm in winter, control watering, and prevent stem rot. During the high temperatures in summer, shade the plants and place them in an air-conditioned indoor environment to keep them active. 6. Notes Gloxinia grows slowly after sowing, so patience is required. Cuttings are a more successful method of propagation. When caring for the plant indoors, artificial pollination can be performed to increase the seed setting rate. The above is an introduction to the cultivation methods and key points of Gloxinia flowers. Friends who have Gloxinia flowers at home can pay more attention to these points in their daily maintenance work.
