Flowering Period and Conservation Methods of Western Cuckoo

When will it blossom

The earlier variety of this kind of flower blossoms in October, followed by around the Lunar New year. It can blossom for up to half a year, usually in April and May of the following year. The colder the environment, the more beautiful the color of the flowers. It is necessary to fertilize and water the flowers before they bloom, but not after the flowers bloom.

II. Maintenance methods

The maintenance before and after flowering is the key to its longer bloom, more beautiful flowers and more beautiful flowers.

1. Starting in March, adding sparse fertilizer based on phosphorus, supplemented by nitrogen, once or twice, with an interval of 15 days each time, can help the flowers to become fuller. In order to give it more space and nutrients to be used in the most critical places, all the buds except the top of the branch should be removed. After the flower has withered, it is necessary to add phosphorus and potassium fertilizer twice, which can help the green plant grow strong, make it look more beautiful, and help the flower bud grow.

2. When blooming, put the pot in the ventilated area, bask it in the sun sooner or later, and put it in the room in the evening. When there is no moisture in the pot, add water in time, do not sprinkle water on the flowers, and do not add fertilizer during flowering. Don't let the sun shine on it directly. A cool environment can help it bloom longer.

3. Its roots are very thin, afraid of too much water, and can not resist drought. As long as it is not watered properly, it is disadvantageous to its growth. The amount of water should be determined according to the season and its growth stage. It is colder in winter, it temporarily stops growing and needs less water, so let the basin dry, otherwise it will have yellow leaves, or it will die if it is serious. If it is not cold in winter, you can add water with a temperature similar to that of the environment every three or five days. March and May is the period of growth, so it is necessary to add more water and sprinkle water on and around the leaves. The water will gradually decrease as it gets colder at the end of autumn. Use rotten fertilizer instead of raw fertilizer for fattening.
