The longevity flowers are small and exquisite, with compact plants, emerald green leaves, and dense flowers.
Just by appearance,It can occupy a place among many ornamental flowers, and it is a well-deserved "Yan Ba".
更何況，The longevity flowers bloom during Christmas, New Year's Day and moreSpring Festival, arrange window sills, desks, desks, complement each other, is the best choice to increase the sense of home atmosphere.
At the same time, longevity flowers imply longevity and health,Perfect as a birthday gift, especially to the elders and relatives and friends, to express good wishes to family and friends; As a decorative plant for offices and homes, it adds life and vitality.
所以也就難怪越來越多的人入坑長壽花，愛上室內盆栽長壽花。然而，一到4月，長壽花的花期將盡，該怎麼辦？
It is recommended that if you want longevity flowers, you must do these 4 things quickly to ensure that the plants can come fromspringSmooth transition into summer dormancy.
(1) Prune, be ruthless
As the temperature rises day by day, the longevity flowers will enter a dormant state, and even become a petri dish for disease because the temperature is too high.
To this end,Recommended everyonePrune the branches and leaves as soon as possible to reduce the nutrient consumption of the plants, so that the plants can store more nutrients and prepare for the autumn awakening and reflowering.
4. In the month of 0, after the last flowers withered, should not hesitate to carry out a heavy pruning of the longevity flowers.
Cut off all the withered flowers and associated branches, leaving only the second pair of leaves below the withered branches.
4. In different regions, the temperature rises fast and slowly, and some longevity flowers will intermittently grow some new leaves after 0 months.We're going to trim it a little shorterto stimulate the growth of lateral branches.
3. The branches that are too long and too dense stay on the branches, not only can not synthesize nutrients, but will become a burden, continue to ask for nutrients from the plant, and affect ventilation and lighting.
So we're going to trim some properlyIt reduces the burden on the plants, ensures smooth ventilation between the branches and leaves, and allows the branches and leaves to receive sufficient light, reducing the possibility of plant disease.
(2) Turn over the pot and change the soil
Theoretical lectures,springAutumn is the most suitable time for plants to change potting soil, but in autumn, longevity flowers are at the peak of flowering, and changing potting soil at this time will inevitably delay the normal growth and flowering of longevity flowers.
So compare the two，springIt is more suitable for changing potting soil for longevity flowers，而4月份，長壽花花期剛過，但氣候又沒有進入酷熱階段，更換盆栽土后植株有足夠的時間適應新環境。
suggestion4月一定要給長壽花更換盆土，為植株厚積薄發和開花做好充足的準備。
1. Prepare a weakly acidic soil that is suitable for the growth of long-lived peanuts that is loose, breathable, fertile and has good drainage capacity.
Buy special nutrient soil, or configure it yourself, one garden soil, two humus, two perlite, plus a small amount of organic fertilizer, mix evenly as a substrate.
2. Control the water in advance, let the soil become semi-dry, and then turn it upside down to reduce the damage to the root system as much as possible.
After cleaning the soil from the roots, prune off the diseased and aging roots, leaving only a strong taproot, and soak it in carbendazim aqueous solution for 30 minutes before drying before potting.
3. Press the soil that compacts the roots, water it again, and then put it in a cool and ventilated place to let the plants slowly adapt to the new environment.
(3) Increase watering appropriately
With the increase of temperature, the metabolism of plants increases, especially in branches and leaves, and the water in the leaves is transpired by a large amount, which will inevitably wilt and lose energy due to lack of water.
Once there is no timely replenishment of water, it will directly turn yellow and wilt, and after a long time, there will be more yellow leaves, which will cause irreversible damage to the plant.
So I would like to advise everyone in the month of 4,As soon as the flowering period is over, it is necessary to increase the frequency of watering, not only to water the soil when it is dry and wet, but also to spray water mist on the branches and leaves frequently, replenish water and cool down through water vapor evaporation.
(4) Increase the light appropriately
When the temperature rises, many people will deliberately move it to a cool and ventilated place because of the taboo high temperature of longevity flowers, so as to reduce the metabolism and consumption of plants as much as possible.
As everyone knows, this will also affect the photosynthesis of plants, after all, light is the only medium of plant photosynthesis, irreplaceable, without photosynthesis, the way for plants to obtain nutrients can only come from the soil.
So in order to reduce the pressure on the roots,In order to hoard as many nutrients as possible during the dormant stage, we should pay attention to the reasonable provision of light.
suggestionAvoid direct sunlight at noon, especially when the temperature exceeds 30 °C, as the temperature rises, the intensity of ultraviolet rays in the sunlight will increase, which will burn the branches and leaves of longevity flowers to a certain extent, so high temperatures need shade.
But in the cool mornings and evenings, it is necessary to give the longevity flowers as much sunlight as possible, at least 4 hours a day, so that the longevity flowers can grow as long as possible.
Write at the end,
In short, a point of hard work and a point of harvest, the plan of the year lies in spring, spring is done well, longevity and flowering early. For this reason, if you have longevity flowers at home, act quickly!
