How to grow the lucky charm flower vigorously?

Smooth Sailing , also known as White Anthurium , is an evergreen plant. Its leaves remain bright green all year round and it has the characteristic of flowering. The flowers are shaped like small white sailboats, elegant and beautiful. The flowering period of anthurium is mainly concentrated in summer and autumn, and the flowers are lush and pleasing to the eye. Many people keep a potted plant at home, but after raising it themselves, they find that they cannot take good care of it. Let’s learn how to grow the next smooth sailing flower vigorously.

1. Pay attention to choosing the right flower pot

A flowerpot that is too large can easily lead to water accumulation and cause root rot, while a flowerpot that is too high is not conducive to root development. A shallow pot should be used so that once the roots are fully grown in the pot, the plant can quickly grow leaves and flowers. In terms of soil, nutrient soil with good air permeability is the best choice. Avoid using garden soil with little nutrients and easy to compact, so as to prevent yellow leaves and stunted seedlings in the later stage.

2. Reasonable watering

While ensuring the soil is well-ventilated and the flowerpot is suitable, the amount of watering needs to be controlled. The lucky bamboo plant likes moist soil and higher air humidity. When watering, wait until the soil surface is dry before watering thoroughly. Regular spraying is also required, but whether watering or spraying, attention must be paid to ventilation, otherwise the leaves will easily turn black and rot, and the roots may also rot.

3. Scientific fertilization

In terms of fertilization, spring is a period of smooth and rapid leaf growth, and fertilizers with high nitrogen content and balanced other elements should be selected to promote the growth of new leaves and make the leaves shiny. Summer and autumn are its flowering stages, and fertilizers high in phosphorus should be supplemented at this time to promote bud formation and flowering, while ensuring normal root growth and nutrient absorption. The frequency of fertilization should be maintained at 2-3 times per month. If the temperature is below 10 degrees in winter, stop fertilizing and keep the soil moist to safely spend the winter; if the temperature is above 10 degrees, follow the maintenance methods for the growing season.

4. Lighting conditions

Light is the key to smooth maintenance. Many people believe that flowering plants need plenty of sunlight, but the hollyhock is a plant that is afraid of strong light. If it is placed under strong light, the leaves will gradually turn yellow, which is caused by excessive light. When caring for it, avoid direct sunlight. You can choose light before 9 o'clock in the morning or place it in a diffuse light environment. 2-3 hours a day can meet its growth needs and keep the leaves dark green and healthy.

In short, maintenance is smooth and not complicated. Providing sufficient nitrogen during the growing season, supplementing phosphorus in the summer, paying attention to light and ventilation, and applying appropriate fertilizers will enable it to grow lushly, have shiny leaves, and last a long flowering period. Even if you are a novice in maintenance, you can easily take care of it through learning.
