How to fertilize Allium orchid and when does it bloom

1. Four seasons fertilization method

1. Spring: Spring is its peak growth season, and the demand for nutrients is relatively large, so add more fertilizer. But be careful to apply fertilizer in small amounts and multiple times. It is best to apply fertilizer in the morning or evening so that the temperature will not burn the roots. The frequency is once a month, and diluted nitrogen fertilizer water can be used.

2. Summer: This season is its flowering time, so be sure to pay attention to fertilizing during this period. The amount of nitrogen fertilizer should be reduced one month before flowering, and phosphorus and potassium fertilizers should be applied once every half a month to promote flowering. Stop applying fertilizer during the flowering period, and apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizers after flowering to supplement nutrients.

3. Autumn: Its growth rate will gradually slow down in autumn, so the amount and frequency of fertilizer should be reduced. Just apply a thin layer of fertilizer once a month, and stop fertilizing in late autumn. It is best to apply fertilizer in the afternoon when the temperature is suitable.

4. Winter: In winter, it will hibernate and stop growing. Do not apply fertilizer at this time because the roots will not absorb nutrients. Instead, fertilizer will burn the roots and cause harm to it.

2. Flowering period

The flowers of the Allium orchid bloom in summer, specifically between July and September. Its flowers are solitary, have six tepals, and are white in color.
