When does the rain orchid bloom?

1. When to grow flowers

Normally, it looks like a pot of grass, but every time it blooms, it blooms in patches. After the rain, the white and pink flowers are very eye-catching. This is the Zephyranthes. This kind of flower, which is usually planted on the roadside in parks, has white petals that bloom during the day and close at night. A flower can be open for two to three days, and it will only open after it rains. It blooms from mid-May to late October and can bloom every month.

2. Tips for long flowers

1. If you use low-temperature water to water it, only give it about half a month of sunlight time, and wait until it is cloudy, then water it with cold water. Make sure the leaves and roots are thoroughly watered, and flowers will grow in about a week. This is because the water is cooler and promotes the germination of flower buds.

2. If you cut it like you cut leeks, flower buds will appear. But the probability of this happening is relatively small, in fact, as long as the day of flowering arrives. When it rains, it will naturally grow flowers. If there is no rain, you can only wait.

3. Its flowers bloom for longer periods of time if it is located in the southern region. Its flowers can be seen from late spring to early winter, and its flowering period is generally from April to November. It can be planted directly in the open air. If it is a potted plant, you can provide it with appropriate shade in the summer. If you plant directly in the field, don't let the soil get too dry.

If you want to propagate, you can directly buy bulbs to plant. They grow very fast. Some bulbs already have flower buds, but the leaves have been cut. So sometimes there is a situation where you buy bulbs, but they grow flowers after less than seven days of planting.
