Maintenance and Management of Electric Light Flowers

The shape of the electric lantern is like a table lamp, hence its name. The electric lantern flower is fragrant when it blossoms, and it is a very strange flowering plant. Artificial cultivation of electric lantern is not difficult, but it is necessary to maintain its growth environment.

Electric light flower

The electric lantern flower is a perennial twining herb with large bell-shaped flowers in purple or yellowish green. Each leaf of the genus Lantern consists of a cluster of small leaves on both sides of the main stem, with tendrils for climbing at the top of each cluster.

Electric lanterns should be planted in fertile, well-drained soil. It is more shady, in the hot summer sun, not easy to expose to the sun, to appropriate shade. It likes water, so when watering, you should be careful not to accumulate water in the basin. Attention should be paid to fertilization during the growing period, and farm manure is the best.

The maintenance of the electric lantern flower is important for the maintenance of the flower plant electric lantern, which is in the same shape as a desk lamp, bell-shaped, fragrant, creamy green, turns purple after aging, and the leaves are divided into four narrow to ovate branches and leaves, dark green, is a peculiar ornamental plant. Morphological features: perennial twining herbs with large bell-shaped flowers in purple or yellowish green. Each leaf of the genus Lantern consists of a cluster of small leaves on both sides of the main stem, with tendrils for climbing at the top of each cluster. Key points of conservation: to plant in fertile, well-drained soil. It is more shady, in the hot summer sun, not easy to expose to the sun, to appropriate shade. It likes water, so when watering, you should be careful not to accumulate water in the basin. Attention should be paid to fertilization during the growing period, and farm manure is the best. Propagation: sowing or cork cutting can be carried out when the spring climate is 18 ℃. Cultivation and management techniques of electric lantern

Electric lantern (Rehmannia glutinosa) Cobaea scandens

Application: climbing plants attached to flower racks and walls.

Cultivation period: green (seedling raising in burrow tray): 4-5 weeks; cultivation time (from sowing to flowering): 8-10 weeks.

Sowing time: February to April.

Sowing substrate: loose humus soil, slightly applying thin fertilizer (compound fertilizer 0.5-1.5 kg / m3, iron and trace elements), good drainage (0-20% vermiculite), PH: 5.8-6.5.

Sprouting: when the temperature is 18 ℃ ~ 21 ℃, it can sprout in 14 ~ 20 days.

Sprouting conditions: no light is needed for germination, and vermiculite, sand or medium is covered after sowing. Maintain a balanced humidity. Fertilization began after the cotyledons unfolded (Ⅱ in the growing period).

Pot: transplant to flowerpot after sowing for 4 weeks and 5 weeks.

Upper basin substrate: less salt and loose humus, 20% 30% clay, 10% vermiculite (or sand), 2 kg compound fertilizer / m2, 1 kg / m2 slow-release fertilizer (3-6 months), a small amount of iron and trace elements, container or exposed substrate application of slow-release fertilizer is very important for the normal growth of climbing plants in the future. Ph: 6.0-6.5.

Temperature: 14 ℃ ~ 15 ℃ is suitable for fertility. Exercise and adaptation should be paid attention to when transplanting outdoors. Electric lanterns can't stand frost. There should be protective measures for overwintering in open fields.

Fertilization: high fertilizer demand, after transplanting to flowerpots, use compound fertilizer containing potassium (nitrogen 150mg / L, 200mg / L) and slow-release fertilizer (3kg / m2) every week. Use a compound balanced fertilizer containing potassium and phosphorus (N:K2O ratio: 1: 1. 5) to avoid high amine and nitrogen levels.

Cultivation tips: help plants climb on the bracket in time, the leaves are large and dense, so they need more fertilizer and water. The experience is for reference only. If you need to solve specific problems (especially in legal, medical and other fields), you are advised to consult professionals in relevant fields in detail next.
