But now many friends who plant longevity flowers have encountered the softening of its leaves. What's going on in a state that looks like a disease but not a disease? Next, let's have a look together.

I. the reasons for the softening of the leaves of longevity flowers

The softening of the leaves of longevity flowers is always an abnormal performance, so we still have to take it seriously. Pro-agricultural network here first summarizes three reasons, let's first understand what causes the leaves of longevity flowers to soften.

1. Rotten root

One of the reasons for the softening of the leaves of longevity flowers may be the decay of the roots. Usually we have to re-cut the longevity flowers every two years, and if we do not re-cuttage for a long time, it will lead to root rot of the longevity flowers. In addition, excessive watering produces stagnant water, which can also lead to rotting roots. Once there are rotten roots, it will inevitably cause the leaves to lose their luster and become soft.

two。 The light is too strong

Summer is the dormant period of longevity flowers, although they will not stop growing completely, they do not need too much light, and it is best to maintain them in a cool place, otherwise, once they are exposed to the sun for a long time, the leaves of longevity flowers will soften because of strong light and loss of water.

3. Water deficiency

Usually when we plant longevity flowers, we will choose the soil with good drainage, but this also means that the loss of water will be faster, if the longevity flower is in an environment of lack of water for a long time, its leaves will become soft.

2. The solution to soften the leaves of longevity flowers

1. Rational watering

The watering of longevity flowers should be carried out alternately, not too much or too little, and pay attention to waterlogging prevention under the condition of sufficient water.

two。 Reasonable illumination

The growth of longevity flowers must be given sufficient light except in summer. Usually there are only 2 hours of light a day in summer, and the rest of the time can be kept in a warm and cool place. It is better to have bright scattered light.

3. The solution after rotten roots

If the longevity flower has rotten roots, then we should first remove the pot, cut off all the rotten roots, re-cultivate the soil after the wound has healed, and appropriately use some rooting powder to promote root growth.

These are the reasons and solutions for the softening of longevity flowers introduced by the pro-agricultural network. I hope I can help you.
