When growing flowers, you can use special flower fertilizer to fertilize its leaves every ten days and irrigate its roots every half a month, which can help its bulbs grow stronger, fuller and store enough nutrients. And it can improve its ability to withstand the severe winter, the quality of the flowers will be better, and the chances of growing seedlings will be greater. Use more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer after flowering, and cut off the flower arrows 10-15 days after flowering.
