Potted longevity flowers learn three tricks: the leaves are thick, the roots are not rotten, and the flowers are easy to explode.

Like a lot of flowers, many like for a while, only potted longevity flowers is my great love, and it is also the earliest flowering variety that I began to come into contact with after green planting. In botany, it has professional names, called "fake Sichuan lotus" and "Christmas ga". It doesn't sound like a "longevity flower", which is similar to our Chinese custom and is full of tacky beauty.

The potted longevity flower has neither the delicate beauty of peony nor the fragrance of daffodils, but it has its own unique beauty. You can enjoy flowers when there are flowers and leaves when there are no flowers. Paniculate Cymes, 4 small petals, like rotating small windmills.

Its flowering period is very long, and the name longevity flower is really worthy of the name for this kind of flowers and plants with various colors. All the flowers are not red for a hundred days, but this longevity flower has a flowering period of more than 100 days. From December to June of the following year, it is almost always in bloom, and even a few flowers can be seen in summer. It is also the longest blooming variety of my personal flowers except the four seasons plum.

Potted longevity flowers, extremely easy to feed, randomly break a branch, insert in the soil can live, raise for a year and a half can blossom, do not need too much water and fertilizer and special care. Flowerpots try to use pottery pots with good permeability, and you can also put crushed charcoal blocks or ceramsite at the bottom of the pot to enhance its permeability, which is more conducive to growth.

Basin soil, it is best to choose good drainage, do not choose water-retaining medium. You can buy succulent soil directly, or grow it directly with sand, and you can raise it well by adding a little organic fertilizer and water when watering.

Potted longevity flowers are relatively drought-tolerant but afraid of waterlogging and rotting roots, daily maintenance and ventilation of the environment is very important. The principle of watering is that it is not dry or watered, dry rather than wet, and thoroughly watered. Spring and autumn, can be watered once a week, summer into the semi-dormant period, we should pay attention to water control.

In addition, a secret to flowering is that, regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter, as long as it is flowering, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, such as potassium dihydrogen phosphate and bone meal, will make the flowers more colorful and luxuriant. Fertilization can be combined with spraying leaves and irrigating roots, the effect is very good.
