What about the rotten roots of longevity flowers? 1. Preparation work
Plant longevity flowers with rotten roots or soft stems and leaves in a pot and place them on an open courtyard or table, ready to take off the pot to check the degree of root rot. Prepare scissors or art knives, disinfect them before use, carbendazim, new flowerpots and soil, clear water, etc.

Just gently pat the sides and bottom of the flowerpot to separate the soil, then shovel the soil out with a shovel, then take the longevity flower plant and take the flowerpot out directly.
Of course, this pot of longevity flower plant is not large, just shovel off the soil, and then take the plant out.
3. Check the rotten roots and cut them.
After the longevity flower plant is removed from the pot, wash off the soil from the roots and observe the cleaning of the rotten roots. If it is only part of the rotten roots, just cut off the rotten roots directly, and be sure to cut off all the rotten parts.
For serious root rot, for example, if the root system is rotten, cut off all the rotten roots directly until the cut in the stem is not black.
4. Root disinfection
After cutting off the rotten roots of longevity flowers, prepare a pot of water, add carbendazim, and stir evenly, then soak the cut longevity flowers in solution for 10 minutes, disinfect and sterilize.
After soaking, remove the plant and put it in a cool, ventilated place to let the incision dry.
5. Pot / cuttage
For the rotting root is not particularly serious, after cutting, disinfecting and drying, the longevity flower plant can be put on the pot directly. Add some particles to the bottom of the flowerpot and cover it with soil, then plant the longevity flowers in the flowerpot and water the roots once after planting.
For the rotten roots are serious, after pruning, there are no roots, then the plant can be cut into segments, used for cutting, each section can be about 3-5 cm, prepare a new pot soil, directly cut longevity flowers and branches into the soil, and watering and moisturizing.

For cutting branches, it is necessary to wait until the branches take root before giving light, but during this period the soil is not difficult to dry, it is necessary to keep the soil moist.
How to prevent rotting roots 1. Avoid stagnant water
Although longevity flowers like a humid environment, they must be watered well in the process of raising them. If the watering frequency is high, the amount is large, coupled with the poor air permeability of the soil, in such an environment, it is most likely to cause longevity flowers to rot. When you take care of yourself, you must take good care of your hands.
Observe the drying condition of basin soil and water it reasonably. Otherwise, the longevity flowers will be watered to death.
2. Basin soil problem
If the soil is hardened, the stagnant water cannot be drained, and it is easy to cause rotten roots. Therefore, planting longevity flowers in the soil, choose loose and breathable loam, often loosen the soil, let the soil permeable, no stagnant water, so that the longevity flower root system has a good growth environment, can grow better.
Home-grown soil can be humus soil, garden soil, add the right amount of sand, stir well. This mixed loam is permeable and permeable, which is more conducive to the growth of longevity flowers.
If the plant is not large longevity flowers, when planting, use a deeper flowerpot, coupled with the environment is not good, it is also easy to cause longevity flowers rotten roots. The size and depth of the flowerpot depends on the size of the plant.
