When does Lythrum salicina bloom and how to grow and care for it

1. Flowering period

The flowering period of Lythrum salicina is mainly in summer, specifically between July and September, and lasts for about two or three months, which is neither long nor short. However, the specific flowering period depends on the maintenance conditions. The environment, temperature, and climate will affect flowering. Its flowers resemble ears of wheat, and are pink or lavender in color. They are very attractive and well-loved.

2. Breeding methods

1. Fertilizer and water: In the early stage of breeding, that is, when the plants are buried in the soil, base fertilizer should be applied to supplement nutrients, and then water should be poured thoroughly. No fertilizer is needed for a long time in the later stage. You can add more water during the management period. It likes moisture and needs more watering during the growth period, but there should be no stagnant water.

2. Light: It likes light very much, so it needs to be provided with sunlight all day long during maintenance, but it needs to be shaded in summer and not exposed to too strong sunlight. With sufficient light, the flowers will bloom more beautifully and the flowering period can be extended.

3. Temperature: It is cold-resistant and not afraid of low temperature environments, so there is no need to worry about frostbite in winter. In high temperature seasons, the plant needs to be cooled down. You can spray water frequently to increase the humidity.
