1 Summer Chrysanthemum

Maintenance Tips

1. Control water. Summer chrysanthemum is very sensitive to water. Generally, water it thoroughly once when it sprouts in spring, and water it when the soil is dry and wet afterwards. Another point to note is that you should water it as little as possible during the growing season, which can make the summer chrysanthemum grow shorter and stronger. 2. Summer chrysanthemums need good light to grow, so they are suitable to be placed on a balcony or window. It would be even better if conditions permit! 3. Generally, summer chrysanthemums do not need to be pinched, but if you water them too much and the plants grow very tall, you can pinch them off by simply pinching off the buds on the top.

2Verbena

Maintenance tips:

1. Soil: Verbena is not very demanding on soil and can be planted in ordinary garden soil. Of course, it will grow better if you use nutrient soil. 2. Watering: The roots of petunia are shallow, so you should water it more often in summer and keep the soil in the pot moist. 3. Light: You can get more sunlight in spring and autumn, but you must provide shade in summer, otherwise the leaves will turn yellow, and in severe cases, the plant may even go dormant!
4. Temperature: It likes a warm climate. The most suitable growth temperature is 15-25℃. It grows poorly when the temperature is higher than 34℃ in summer. You can spray water on the surrounding ground to use evaporation to lower the temperature. 5. Fertilization: Apply thin fertilizer frequently, about once a month. You can choose homemade flower fertilizer or other organic fertilizer. Also, when applying fertilizer, do not splash it onto leaves or flowers; keep them dry. 6. Pruning: You can pinch the top of the plant twice before it blooms. If you want it to bloom into a flower ball, you have to pinch it 3 to 4 times.

3. Aquilegia


Maintenance tips:

1. You can choose sandy soil or leaf mold as the soil, and mix in a little base fertilizer when planting, such as chicken manure fertilizer, bean cake fertilizer, etc. 2. It needs sufficient light, but cannot withstand the high temperature in summer and needs shade. 3. Temperature: the suitable growth temperature is between 15℃ and 35℃.
4. Water when the soil is dry and wet, about once every 3 to 5 days. 5. Before flowering, apply some phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, such as using fish intestine water to water the flowers, or directly spraying potassium dihydrogen phosphate. 6. Indoor potted plants need to be pinched during the growth period, one is to control the height of the plant, and the other is to promote branching.

4 Ranunculus


Maintenance tips:

1. Soil: It is suitable for planting in sandy soil, so when preparing the soil, you can use nutrient soil + river sand. 2. Anthus loves moisture, so it is better to keep the soil moist when watering. Basically, just keep the surface of the soil in the pot moist. 3. Anthus loves an environment with plenty of sunlight. It is best to grow it outdoors. If it cannot be grown outdoors, it should be placed on the south balcony or south windowsill.
4. Anemone likes fertilizer and needs topdressing during the growing period. Generally, light fertilizer is applied once every 10 days. Fertilizer can be organic fertilizer or special flower fertilizer. 5. Cut off the remaining flowers at any time after flowering. After all the flowers have bloomed, you can apply liquid fertilizer 1 to 2 times to nourish the roots, and control the water appropriately, because Anemone will hibernate in summer.

5 Platycodon grandiflorum


Maintenance tips:

1. It likes an environment with plenty of sunlight, so it is most suitable for outdoor cultivation or on a balcony. 2. It likes a humid environment and waters when the soil is dry and wet. It can be watered more often during the growing period. If it is watered less, the stems and leaves will grow thin and weak, and it will bloom prematurely. But be sure not to allow water to accumulate, otherwise the roots will rot.
3. After the flower buds are formed, avoid high temperature and high humidity environment, otherwise it is easy to cause fungal diseases. 4. The suitable temperature for the growth of lisianthus is 15-28℃, and the night temperature during the growing period should not be lower than 12℃.

5 Blue Snowflake



Maintenance tips:

1. Soil: It is better to use peat for planting. Garden soil can be mixed with some perlite for planting, but it grows obviously slower than peat. In addition, the flower pot needs to be larger in diameter but shallower. 2. Light: It likes light and needs to be placed on a balcony. If there are really no such conditions, it can be placed in semi-shade and can also grow normally, but the number of flowers may be slightly less. 3. Fertilizer: Blue snow flowers like fertilizer. The base fertilizer can be long-acting slow-release fertilizer or homemade flower fertilizer. Normally, topdressing should be done in small amounts and applied frequently. Fertilizer can be organic fertilizer or ordinary flower fertilizer. There is no need to be too particular about it.
4. It likes a humid environment and the soil in the pot needs to be kept moist for a long time. Generally, it needs to be watered once every 2 to 3 days in summer. 5. After the blue snow flowers bloom, you need to cut off the withered flowers, and they will bloom again in 20 to 30 days. Directly cutting off old branches that are more than 2 years old is not good for growth. 6. Do not let it get wet in the rain when it is blooming, otherwise it will affect its ornamental value. If it rains during the flowering period, the flowers will be easily damaged, affecting the viewing experience.
