Don’t be careless when growing flowers in the twelfth lunar month. If you put a basin of water in it, the Christmas cactus and cyclamen... won’t survive until the Chinese New Year!

If you water the Christmas cactus during its flowering period, the flowers will fall off and wilt!

Sometimes, when we see the Christmas cactus tree full of flowers, we want to give it some water for fear that it will be tired. But the next day, the buds and flowers fall off. What’s going on? Actually it was you who watered it!

How to water Christmas cactus?

1. When Christmas cactus is in bloom, it is best not to water it. If it is really too dry, you can water it a little, but do not water it too much or too deeply, otherwise the flowers and buds will fall off, and in severe cases, the roots will rot!

2. After the Christmas cactus has finished blooming, we cut off two leaves on the flower to let it dormant. Don't water it heavily at this time. Just pour water along the edge of the pot when the leaves are a little wilted.

3. Remember! Basically, Christmas cactus will not die of dryness, they will die of overwatering, so don’t water it blindly when you see the leaves wilt. First, spray some water on the surface of the pot. If the leaves recover after a while, it means it is lacking water, so continue to water it thoroughly. If it doesn't recover, it must be caused by root rot or fertilizer damage!

If you water the middle of the cyclamen, the bulb and leaves will rot!

During the Chinese New Year, cyclamen is in short supply, but many people find that the plants wilt soon after they buy them home. Why? It may be that you watered the middle and poured water onto the bulb, causing the bulb and leaves to rot!

How to grow cyclamen?

1. Cyclamen cannot be watered from top to bottom, because it is a bulbous flower. It is easy to water the bulb from above, causing the bulb to rot and die. Moreover, there are fuzz on the surface of its leaves, which are easy to rot when exposed to water!

2. The correct way to water cyclamen is to pour water into its flowerpot tray, let the water be absorbed by the tray, and then pour it again until the surface of the potting soil is slightly moist.

3. In addition, we usually have to wait until the pot pad is lighter, or the leaves are a little fallen over before watering. Don’t water it randomly. It is best to place it in a bright east or west balcony or living room for maintenance!

If you water Phalaenopsis below 15 degrees, it will freeze to death in minutes!

Phalaenopsis is a common New Year flower, but many flower lovers find that the leaves wilt, turn black, and die while raising them. In fact, the main cause of death is the temperature and watering issues that everyone ignores!

How to grow Phalaenopsis?

1. Phalaenopsis is a tropical flower and is particularly afraid of cold. It is easy to suffer from frostbite when the temperature is below 15 degrees in winter. Therefore, if there is no indoor heating in winter, you must build a greenhouse for it and place it in a well-lit place to keep it warm in the sun.

2. When the temperature is low, it is more important to control watering, because too much water is more likely to cause frost damage, especially below 15 degrees. You can directly cut off watering. Anyway, Phalaenopsis has fleshy roots and will not die even if it is not watered for 1-2 months!

3. In addition, when growing Phalaenopsis, be sure to use a transparent plastic pot or plastic bottle, keep the temperature above 15 degrees, and water it when you see the roots turn white; if the roots are green, no watering is needed.
