1. Flowering timeRed spider lily usually blooms in spring and autumn. It prefers a warm environment. If the temperature is too high in summer, the plant will enter a dormant state, its growth rate will slow down, and it will not bloom. Winter is relatively cold, and low temperatures will inhibit the growth of the plants, preventing them from blooming. If you want it to bloom, you must provide proper light and also pay attention to supplementing phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. 2. How many years does it take to bloom?It usually takes 2-3 years for the red spider lily to bloom. If the bulbs you buy are relatively large, they can bloom in one year. Smaller bulbs are not easy to bloom and often need to be nurtured for several years. The flower shape of this plant is very unique. Its petals are wrinkled and curled, and the flowers bloom before the leaves grow. The leaves only grow after the flowers fade, and the flowers and leaves never meet. 3. How to raise1. Soil: The requirements of red spider lily on soil are not high. Generally, any substrate suitable for the growth of bulbous flowers can be used. If it is in sandy loam rich in organic matter, the plant will grow better. The soil should not be too sticky and good drainage is essential to avoid bulb rot. 2. Light: Red spider lily is a semi-shade plant and is usually placed in a bright place. It should not be exposed to strong light, but it also needs a certain amount of light. Sufficient diffuse light can make it bloom better, but too much shade will cause the plant to grow too tall and may even cause it to fall over. 3. Watering: Red spider lily itself has a certain degree of drought resistance, and its underground stems can grow in an environment with insufficient water, but sufficient water supply can also accelerate growth. Generally, when the soil surface turns white, it is time to water it appropriately. However, during the dormant period, reduce watering. 4. Fertilization: When planting and repotting red spider lilies, bury an appropriate amount of organic fertilizer to continuously provide it with nutrients. During the growing season, you can apply fertilizer every two months, paying attention to regulating the ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium to promote its development and flowering. |
