8 super cold-resistant plants that are not afraid of frostbite

Cymbidium

The most cold-resistant of domestic orchids is Cymbidium, which can grow even in temperatures as low as minus 7 degrees Celsius. Moreover, the Cymbidium blooms from January to February, which coincides with the Spring Festival. The beautiful flowers emit a subtle fragrance, and it is very festive!

Maintenance methods

1. Cymbidium orchids prefer an environment where the roots are moist but not waterlogged, and are not drought-tolerant, so they need to be watered when the soil is dry and watered thoroughly when watered. Usually, you should spray water around it to ensure humidity.

2. Autumn is an important time to care for cymbidium orchids. At this time, they need more sunlight, which is conducive to the formation and differentiation of flower buds. Ensure normal flowering.

3. Although Cymbidium is cold-resistant, you still need to take warming measures when the temperature is low, especially the roots. You can make a cover with unwanted wool and put it on the pot. At the same time, do not use plastic pots as they do not keep warm. It is better to use clay pots.

tulip

Tulips are extremely cold-resistant and can withstand temperatures as low as -14°C in winter. In extremely cold areas, if covered with thick snow, the bulbs can overwinter in the open.

Maintenance methods

1. The planting time is generally around November in autumn. Remove the brown skin from the bulb and plant it in the soil, but don't bury it too deep.

2. The period after planting is the time for root growth. It does not need to be exposed to sunlight. Keep the soil slightly dry and place it in a sunny location on the balcony. After about half a month, you can gently shake the bulb. If it feels like it can't be shaken, it proves that roots have grown.

3. Once the roots grow out, they can see the sunlight. The soil should be relatively dry, but watering is necessary if it is too dry. It will sprout after a while. For germination, it is necessary to keep it in the sun regularly. In spring, from March to April, the flowers bloom.

hyacinth

Hyacinth is now a must-grow plant in many families in autumn and winter. Its clustered flowers are very colorful and very eye-catching. It is also particularly cold-resistant and its bulbs can take root even in temperatures as low as 0-5 degrees.

Maintenance methods

1. When hydroponically cultivating the hyacinthus fragrans, there should be a 1cm-2cm space between the water surface and the bottom of the bulb. Do not let the water submerge the bottom of the bulb.

2. Do not place hydroponic hyacinth bulbs in direct sunlight before they germinate.

3. After the hyacinth C flowers bloom, do not place them directly near a heat source, so that the beautiful hyacinth flowers can extend their opening time.

Cyclamen

Cyclamen is a famous greenhouse potted flower in winter and spring. It is relatively cold-resistant and can withstand temperatures as low as 0°C without freezing. Its growing season is from autumn to the second spring.

Maintenance methods

1. Cyclamen likes sunlight and should be placed in a sunny place for maintenance. Adequate light is very beneficial to its reproduction, but it is afraid of direct exposure to strong sunlight in summer.

2. Cyclamen is a fertilizer-loving plant. Apply 2‰ potassium dihydrogen phosphate once in spring and autumn each year. Do not apply nitrogen fertilizer during the flowering period, otherwise it will cause the branches and leaves to grow too long and shorten the life of the flowers.

3. Cyclamen likes moisture and is afraid of waterlogging. Do not water it too much, as excessive watering will cause root rot and death. Just keep the soil moist every day. Moreover, the leaves of cyclamen are hairy, so you must never spray water on the leaves.

Pyracantha bonsai

Pyracantha is also known as auspicious fruit and torch fruit. The tree is full of white flowers in May, and fruits are produced after the flowers bloom. The fruits mature from October to December and are as bright as red clouds. They linger on the branches for a long time and do not wither all winter. You can enjoy it in all seasons by viewing its leaves, flowers, shape and fruits.

Maintenance methods

1. Pyracantha can grow in both poor soil and fertile soil, but the latter is more conducive to its development. It is advisable to choose slightly acidic soil containing organic matter with good air permeability and drainage.

2. Pyracantha likes light and needs sufficient light. It can be placed in a sunny place. The required light time should be 4-5 hours a day, and it can tenaciously survive the summer and winter.

3. The naturally grown plants have a messy shape and are not conducive to the growth of internal branches. Therefore, they need to be pruned every year to cut off unnecessary long branches, nutrient branches, and overly dense branches, leaving new short branches.

Aspidistra

Aspidistra is dark green and bright, with a graceful, elegant and graceful posture. It is very suitable for indoor planting, especially because it is extremely shade-tolerant and can grow in shady places. It is also relatively cold-resistant and can survive at 0 degrees.

Maintenance methods

1. Aspidistra also blooms, and under natural conditions the flowering period is from March to May. The flowers are small, like little buns, so cute!

2. Aspidistra should avoid direct sunlight. Short-term exposure to sunlight may cause the leaves to burn and turn yellow, reducing their ornamental value.

3. Aspidistra is extremely shade-tolerant and can be enjoyed for several months even in a dark room. However, long-term excessive darkness is not conducive to the germination and growth of new leaves. If it is kept in a dark place with too little light for a long time, the leaves of the Aspidistra will turn yellow.

Guanyin Lotus

The Avalokitesvara Lotus is also called the Avalokitesvara Seat Lotus and the Buddha Seat Lotus. It looks like a blooming lotus and is very poetic. It belongs to the genus Sedum and has a rough nature. It is very cold-resistant and cannot survive even in temperatures below zero.

Maintenance methods

1. When watering, do not water unless the soil is dry. If you do water, water thoroughly and avoid long-term waterlogging to prevent root rot, but do not water the soil too dry.

2. Place it in a sunny place indoors in winter. If the lowest temperature at night is around 10℃ and there is a certain temperature difference between day and night, you can water it appropriately and apply fertilizer as appropriate to allow the plant to continue growing. If you cannot maintain such a high temperature, you should control watering, keep the soil in the pot dry, and stop fertilizing.

Hazy Moon, Winter Beauty

Longyue, Ji Longyue and Winter Beauty can all survive the harsh winter outdoors, with no pressure at minus 5 degrees Celsius. Large succulent farmers in the United States have no problem raising meat at minus 14 degrees Celsius, but of course this also tests their farming skills.

Maintenance methods

1. The more abundant the light and the greater the temperature difference between day and night, the brighter and more lustrous the color of the leaves will be. When the temperature is suitable, it is best to place it outdoors for maintenance and ensure sufficient light.

2. Avoid excessive watering. Water the plant about once every 10 days during the growing season in spring and autumn, and water thoroughly each time. Cut off water supply when the temperature is below 5 degrees in winter and above 35 degrees in summer, and prevent heavy snow and rain from causing waterlogging and frostbite.

3. Both the Halo Moon and the Winter Beauty grow very fast and need to be repotted every 1 to 2 years in spring. The necrotic old roots and overly lignified stems can be cut off to avoid affecting the normal growth and water absorption of the plants.

The introduction is over. There are many more cold-resistant plants, such as snake plants, areca palms, cacti, lilies, etc.

In fact, those in the north who have heating equipment can grow almost any plant indoors in winter!
