Snapdragon(Author: Peace and Prosperity Source: Sina Blog) Because the shape of the flower resembles a goldfish, it is named snapdragon. Its flower colors include white, light red, dark red, flesh-colored, dark yellow, light yellow, etc. It is a very suitable flower as an ornamental plant. Not only that, snapdragon also symbolizes good luck and wealth, and is loved by many people. (Author: Peace and Prosperity Source: Sina Blog) Maintenance method: (1) Potting soil: The cultivation of snapdragon is suitable for using a soil pot or a plastic pot with a diameter of about 15 cm and good air permeability. You can use leaf mold, peat mixed with wood ash as the culture medium. Before planting, you can choose to add some bone meal to the potting soil as a base fertilizer. (2) Water content: Snapdragons are sensitive to water. If water accumulates in the soil, it will cause root rot, but insufficient water will affect its growth and development. Therefore, the best way is to keep the soil in the pot moist, and the soil should be allowed to dry slightly between watering. In addition, it is important to avoid watering from above the plant to prevent the leaves from being too wet. (Author: Luoyang Flower Lover Source: Snapdragon Bar) (3) Lighting: Snapdragon is a light-loving plant. Under sufficient light conditions, its growth height can remain consistent and its flowers are bright and neat. If there is insufficient light, the plant will be taller and the flowers will be lighter in color. (4) Pruning: After the snapdragon blooms, you need to cut off the above-ground part at the same level as the soil and water it thoroughly. New branches will sprout after about a week. After that, apply thin liquid fertilizer every 10 days until flower buds are formed. Bluebells(Source: Material Home) There are about 300 species of campanula in the world. The shape of its flowers is like wind chimes, and the flowers are fresh and elegant. It is a flower that can often be seen in late spring and early summer. People often use it to express gentleness and cuteness. (Author: The stars are not bright Source: ZOL Forum) Maintenance method: (1) Lighting Campanula likes sunlight and requires a long period of sunshine every day, at least 14 hours. Its flowering period can be adjusted by adjusting the light. If you want to advance its flowering period, you can keep it in darkness for 4 hours every day. (2) No need to pinch the top of the stem Campanula does not need to be pinched. In the early stages of growth, the appearance of the campanula is rather messy, but in the later stages of growth the plant will naturally become neat and compact, so there is no need to pinch or manage it at all. (Author: Shuanghuashang Source: Windbell Bar) (3) Fertilizer During the seedling stage of campanula, a lot of fertilizer is needed. You can apply more calcium and nitrogen fertilizers, and then apply an appropriate amount of calcium fertilizer regularly to promote rapid growth of the seedlings. (4) Reproduction Campanula mainly reproduces by seeds. If the seeds are sown immediately after they mature, the plants will bloom in the second year; if they are sown after autumn, they will not bloom until the third year. Dendrobium(Author: Longyan Sees the World Source: Yangxian Forum) Dendrobium is a relatively large species of orchid family and mainly grows on tree trunks and rocks in the wild. The stem looks ugly like a stick, but the flowers it blooms are brightly colored and fragrant. It is one of the four major ornamental foreign flowers. (Author: Huayuan Orchid Garden Source: China Orchid Trading Network) Maintenance method: (1) Potting soil The root system of Dendrobium is underdeveloped, so the potting soil can be made of sawdust, perlite, and leaf mold in a ratio of 1:1:1. Spread broken tiles on the bottom of the pot, and then spread a layer of sphagnum moss on the surface of the substrate. This will make it more moisturizing. You can choose an open shallow pot or a clay pot with good air permeability. (2) Water and fertilizer: Dendrobium is relatively delicate and avoids dryness and is afraid of waterlogging. Especially in spring when new buds are sprouting, it needs sufficient water. Usually, you can water it once every 2-3 days and then spray water on the plant to maintain the air humidity around the plant. Dendrobium should not be treated with concentrated fertilizers. Two grains of dissolved compound fertilizer can be applied every month. (Author: dridchoi Source: Dendrobium Bar) (3) Lighting: Dendrobium likes sunlight, especially during the flowering period. The more sunlight it gets, the fuller and more beautiful the flowers will be. During the growing period, 4-6 hours of light per day are required, and 6-8 hours of light are guaranteed during the flowering period. (4) Pruning: Dendrobium needs to be repotted and soil changed every two years in spring. During the repotting process, problematic roots should be trimmed in time, and the plant can be divided according to its growth. When dividing the plant, keep 2-3 old branches so that the divided plant can bloom in the same year. Peony(Author: Li Bin 023 Source: Hebao Peony Bar) Peony is also called brocade bag flower. It has four petals, and the white stamens inside stick out from the petals, like a small purse; the leaves are also similar to the leaves of peony, so it is called purse peony. Its flowering period is from April to June, and it is a flower that can be used in potted plants or gardens. (Author: angelbgoyhappy Source: Hebao Peony Bar) Maintenance method: (1) Potting soil: Peony likes to grow in soil rich in humus. You can use leaf mold and garden soil mixed in a 1:1 ratio as culture soil. Both sandy and clay soils will cause it to grow poorly. (2) Water and fertilizer: Peony is cold-resistant and afraid of waterlogging. Daily watering should follow the principle of "don't water unless the soil is dry, and water thoroughly when you do." During the vigorous growth period in spring and autumn, water once every 1-2 days on sunny days and once every 3-5 days on cloudy days. Too much watering can cause root rot, while too little watering can lead to poor growth and yellowing leaves. Peony likes fertilizer. During the growing period, a thin layer of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium liquid fertilizer should be applied every 10-15 days to make it have lush leaves and abundant flowers. But stop fertilizing after the flower buds start to show color. (Author: wangwangding Source: Qilu Community) (3) Lighting: The peony prefers a semi-shady environment with sufficient scattered light and is afraid of strong light. Therefore, it should be placed under a large tree in the courtyard or on the shady side of a building. It can also be placed on east-facing or north-facing balconies. (4) Pruning: The roots of the peony are relatively sweet and are easily harmed by ants and other pests. You can use a 1000-fold DDT solution instead of water for watering to kill pests and diseases. After the leaves fall, shaping and pruning should be carried out. Cutting off all the dense branches on the plant, such as parallel branches, crossed branches, and diseased and insect-infested branches, can maintain the beautiful shape of the plant. Wisteria(Author: aibiwen1 Source: Wisteria Flower Bar) Late spring is the season when wisteria flowers bloom. Its flowers hang in clusters on the branches, purple with a hint of blue, looking very gorgeous. Therefore, wisteria is also regarded as a symbol of nobility, implying the coming of purple air from the east. (Author: Wisteria Lover 001 Source: Wisteria Flower Bar) Maintenance method: (1) Potting soil: The taproot of Wisteria is very long, so the soil for planting needs to be deep. Therefore, it is best to plant wisteria in a dry environment with deep soil, fertile soil and good drainage. If the soil is too wet it can cause root rot. (2) Fertilization: Wisteria needs to be fertilized with compound fertilizer 1-2 times a year. Nitrogen fertilizer can be applied during the germination period, and top dressing is needed 2-3 times during the growth period, with decomposed fertilizer being sufficient. (Author: aibiwen1 Source: Wisteria Flower Bar) (3) Reproduction: Wisteria can be propagated by cuttings, layering, sowing, grafting, etc., and cuttings and layering are generally used. (4) Pruning: Wisteria pruning needs to be done during its dormant period. When pruning, you can use the method of removing dense branches and leaving thin branches to make the branches evenly distributed. Wisteria has a particularly strong ability to branch out, and new flower buds mainly grow in the leaf axils at the base of the branches. Therefore, the tops are prone to dry out, and the new branches grown that year need to be pruned back by about 1/2. Wisteria can be propagated by cuttings, layering, sowing, grafting, etc., and cuttings and layering are generally used. Red(Author: Longjing Tea Source: Nanxiang Evening News) The red hibiscus is also called the western red. The flower color is mostly red, and the color is bright and warm. When the flowers bloom, they look like a string of red firecrackers. The flowering period of impatiens is very long, it blooms continuously from late summer to late autumn, and it is not easy to wither, making it an ideal potted flower. (Author: Yu Huo Source: Photography Forum) Maintenance method: (1) Water and fertilizer: Salvia is relatively drought and moisture resistant. In the early growth stage, you can water the plant once every two days to prevent the leaves from turning yellow and falling off; during the vigorous growth period, you can increase the amount of watering appropriately, about once a day will be enough. Apply more fertilizer before flowering to make the wisteria flowers have green leaves, thick and short stems, and more branches. Fertilizer can be a mixture of urea, potassium dihydrogen phosphate and a small amount of superphosphate. Fertilization is usually combined with watering. Apply fertilizer 8-12 hours after each watering. (Author: Falling in Love with the Big Tree Source: A String of Reds) (2) Lighting: A bunch of red flowers bring joy. Generally speaking, you can allow the salvia to receive light from early morning to 12 noon, and move it to a cool place in the afternoon to maintain a semi-shaded and semi-sunny environment, so that the salvia can grow vigorously. (3) Topping: The potted impatiens needs to be topped three times after it takes root. This can inhibit its growth and promote the germination of side buds. The grown plants will not only be short and strong, but also have more flower buds. Dear flower lovers, do you think these bunches of flowers are very beautiful? Stop worrying about the explosion. Come and plant a bunch of flowers. (Note: The pictures are from the Internet, and the copyright belongs to the original author.
