The salinity and alkalinity of soil refers to the amount of salt and alkali in the soil. Saline soil refers to the soil which contains a lot of salt substances such as sodium chloride and sodium sulfate.

Too much salt in the soil will cause physiological damage to flowers. The reason is that excessive salt concentration in the soil will hinder the root system from absorbing water and nutrients from the soil, resulting in the death of flowers due to physiological drought; saline soil often forms a layer of white saline skin on the surface, which directly damages the tissue at the root-stem junction of seedlings, causing seedling death in serious cases; under the action of high concentration of salt, the stomata of leaves will close, causing flowers to lose water and wither and die. Too high salt concentration in the soil makes flowers accumulate a large amount of salt, affect the metabolism of flowers, lead to the accumulation of nitrogen-containing intermediates and cause cell poisoning; due to the competition of sodium ions, flowers absorb too little potassium, phosphorus and other elements. affect the normal nutrition of flowers, resulting in poor growth of flowers.
