Four seasons maintenance method of Gloxinia

Spring maintenance

Spring is the growing season for Gloxinia. It is necessary to maintain a certain air humidity to avoid rain intrusion.

If the surrounding environment is too dry, you can spray water around the plant to increase the humidity.

Summer maintenance

Too high temperatures in summer will affect the growth of Gloxinia. When the temperature is above 30℃, the plant will be in a semi-dormant state.

In summer, the plants should be placed in a ventilated shade shed with diffuse light, otherwise the leaves will easily wither.

During the high temperature period in summer, water 1-2 times a day depending on the dryness or wetness of the flowerpot.

Autumn maintenance

Autumn is also the growing season for Gloxinia. The light cannot be too strong, otherwise it will inhibit its growth.

Spring and autumn are the flowering seasons, and the shading time can be appropriately extended to help prolong the flowering period.

Water evenly, and avoid watering too dry or too wet, or too cold or too hot.

Winter maintenance

Gloxinia is not cold-resistant and will enter a dormant period when the temperature drops to 5℃ in winter.

In winter, the environment should be kept dry and with sufficient light. If the humidity is too high and the temperature is too low, the tubers will easily rot, so reduce the number of waterings.
