What kind of environment does the red spider lily like? What kind of environment is the red spider lily suitable for growing?

1. Environmental requirements

Red spider lily is suitable for growing in a warm semi-shady environment and has a certain degree of cold resistance, but too low temperatures are not conducive to its growth. It will hibernate in summer and the temperature should not exceed 30℃. It does not like strong light and should be placed in a place with scattered light. It should not be too dark, otherwise the plant will be at risk of growing too tall and it will also affect its flowering.

2. Maintenance methods

1. Light: Red spider lily prefers partial shade and is afraid of strong light, so it must be placed in a place with soft light, or provide it with appropriate shade. Especially in summer, avoid exposure to the sun. If the light is not strong, you can also let it dry in the sun, which will help the differentiation of flower buds.

2. Temperature: Red spider lily grows faster in warm places, and the temperature should be controlled between 16-28℃. If the temperature exceeds 30℃ in summer, you need to spray water to cool the plants and pay attention to ventilation. The temperature cannot be lower than 1℃ in winter, otherwise you will get frostbite.

3. Soil: Red spider lily does not have high requirements for soil, but it grows better in loose and fertile places. You can prepare potting soil with peat soil, garden soil and perlite by mixing the three in a ratio of 2:2:1. If you want to add some nutrients, you can add an appropriate amount of organic fertilizer.

4. Watering: Red spider lily is a bulbous plant and is afraid of moisture. Too much water can easily lead to its rot. During the growing season, you can water it more often, which will help accelerate development. During the dormant period, you need to reduce watering. In winter, you must strictly control water and avoid watering with cold water.

5. Fertilization: When planting and repotting red spider lilies, you need to add a certain amount of base fertilizer to the soil to continuously provide nutrients for its growth. During the growing season, cake fertilizer water can be applied once every half a month. It must be fully diluted to avoid concentrated fertilizer burning the roots. Growth is slower in summer and winter and no fertilizer is needed.
