The maintenance trick of longevity flowers, so that the leaves grow bigger than the palms of the hand.

Longevity flower is a personal favorite potted plant, flowering around the Spring Festival, the Spring Festival when a pot of longevity flowers in full bloom throughout the Spring Festival. But my longevity flowers are always a little wilted, so I went to ask for leave and the florist asked for advice on a few tricks.

Fertilization: longevity flowers are fertilizer-loving plants, but it should be noted that it is best not to apply fertilizer under the condition of high temperature during the dormant period in summer. We can just put a few slow-release fertilizers in the basin.

Lighting: the longevity flowers in many friends' homes do not have big leaves and tall branches, which may be caused by too much watering or little light. If this degree is not grasped well, it is easy to grow. Friends who are not good at ordinary times can use dwarf to help control. Use a small amount when spraying, otherwise it will grow very short, and the leaves will become big, thick and beautiful after use.

Longevity flowers like cool and afraid of heat, and shade should be carried out in summer. if the sun shines directly, the leaves will become gray and white, affecting beauty. If the dormant period is properly maintained, the leaves will grow very big.

Watering: longevity flowers are more resistant to drought, afraid of waterlogging and stagnant water, and do not need to be watered too much in summer. if you see that the basin soil is white and dry and then water it, if the basin soil is in a moist state for a long time, it is easy to grow, and the leaves and branches will be relatively weak, not only unattractive, but also easy to rot roots and black rot.

Topping: if longevity flowers want to grow well, proper topping is essential. Longevity flowers topping is very simple, just take off the top buds and two big leaves, and keep the height of longevity below 15cm. In this way, longevity flowers can grow into horizontal development of "short and stout". Do not throw the picked branches, they will soon take root and sprout and grow into new plants when inserted into the soil.
