If you want to have a long life at the end of the flower year, you have to do these two things well. it's not too late to know.

Longevity flower is a favorite flower for many flower friends. The plant is small and exquisite, the leaves are dense and green, the flowers bloom in clusters, the flower colors are rich, and the flowering period is particularly long, and the flowering period is mainly concentrated around Christmas, so it is also known as "festive flowers". It has the meaning of longevity, good luck and so on.

Longevity flowers resume their growth after entering autumn, and pruning should be carried out first in the early autumn, but after late autumn, the new branches and leaves have come to maturity, and some have already begun to give birth to many buds. At this time, we should do these two things well to promote the super number of pregnant buds. At the end of the year, the flowers are full of branches. It's so beautiful!

1. Change pots, change soil and replant

Longevity flowers belong to the peak period of pregnant buds and blossoms after late autumn, and they need sufficient nutrients, and the nutrients in the basin soil have been almost exhausted after a year or so, no matter how much fertilizer is applied at this time. The fertilizer conservation capacity of basin soil is very low, so it is not conducive to the growth and flowering of longevity flowers, so it is necessary to change pots and soil in time to replant.

When changing the basin, if the longevity flower has already appeared some small buds, do not prune the roots too much, just trim off the withered and diseased roots, retain the soil attached to the main root, help it serve the basin faster, replant it and water it thoroughly, then put it in a cool place for maintenance, restore growth for about a week, and then move to the outside for normal maintenance.

2. Shading

Longevity flowers are better light plants with short days, and they are more sensitive to photoperiod. Keeping light for about 10 hours a day can better stimulate the formation and growth of buds and make flowers bloom more abundant and full.

The practice of dark treatment is very simple. It is usually kept in a dark environment from 5: 00 p.m. to 8: 00 a.m. and can be covered with black plastic bags or boxes until the flowers bloom.
