When does the golden agave bloom?

When does the golden agave bloom?

1. The flowering period is summer

It blooms in summer but is not common. In order for it to bloom, the plant usually needs to be more than 10 years old. That is to say, only old plants that have grown for more than 10 years will have a flowering period. Therefore, friends can hardly see it blooming in daily cultivation.

2. Maintenance during flowering period

1. Watering:

Because it blooms in summer, the temperature is high in summer and water loss is more serious, so the frequency of watering needs to be increased, but there should be no water accumulation in the pot, and water should not splash onto the flowers or leaves when watering; the best time to water is in the morning or evening.

2. Temperature:

The temperature should be controlled below 30 degrees, and during daily breeding, the temperature should not exceed 30 degrees.

3. Lighting:

The sun around noon should be properly shaded. Although it is a sun-loving plant, it still needs to avoid too strong sunlight during the flowering period.

Many friends have heard that once this plant blooms, its life begins to countdown. That’s right, it really is using its life to bloom its last flower. Therefore, no matter how well it is maintained, it cannot be saved. Unless it is about to bloom, cut off the flower buds to save the plant. When cutting, be sure to use sterilized and sharp scissors, and also avoid the juice from contacting the skin.
