Longevity flowers have a wide variety of flowers, rich and colorful flowers, which is more suitable for potted ornamental plants. This pot of longevity flowers has been kept for about a year, and the transplant is maintained and managed in an outdoor environment. Longevity flowers can grow normally as long as the temperature is kept below 30 °C. So, how to maintain potted longevity flowers in autumn?

As they were often topped and pruned before, longevity flowers gave birth to many lateral buds, and over time, many flowers were bound to bloom. But in this season, the editor does not recommend pruning it any more, because the longevity flower is about to enter the period of flower bud differentiation. If it is pruned again at this time, it will inevitably affect its normal flowering.

As the flower bud differentiation period is coming, we should provide it with sufficient light at this time, and the time to receive light every day should be kept at 4-6 hours. Because the longevity flower itself is also a short-day plant, it is sufficient to provide 4-6 hours of sunshine per day during flower bud differentiation.

But the watering at this time must be mastered, generally wait until the basin soil is half dry, we can directly pour water for it, do not let it in the state of lack of water in the stage of flower bud differentiation. Otherwise, the plant will wilt early as soon as it appears flower buds, and even inhibit the emergence of flower buds.

Therefore, at this time, we also need to apply some multi-element fertilizer to supplement nutrients to ensure that the vigorous growth of branches and leaves can also promote the development and differentiation of flower buds. And this period of plant growth is also relatively rapid, more exuberant, so it is necessary to ensure adequate nutrients.

The natural flowering period of longevity flowers is generally from November of each year to May of the following year, so it can be seen that the flowering period of longevity flowers is very long. After entering October in autumn, in order to promote flowering, we need to apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizer for it. For example, potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution, topdressing 2-3 times a month, can irrigate roots or spray foliar fertilizer, which can promote the flower bud differentiation of longevity flowers.

In addition, it provides 4-6 hours of short-day sunshine for potted longevity flowers every day, and shade them at other times. After about a month, we can see that the plants of potted longevity flowers are covered with buds. At that time, we can see the elegant demeanor of potted longevity flowers in bloom.
