Can the blooming longevity flowers be fertilized?

Longevity flowers are not only very beautiful, but also have a very long flowering period, even if they are cultivated well, they can blossom in four seasons, which is also relatively rare in the post-anthesis plant world. However, longevity flowers bloom a large number, and bloom for a long time, so the demand for nutrients is very large. And it needs to consume a lot of nutrients to maintain rapid growth in the growing season.

Therefore, fertilizing the longevity flower needs to be applied frequently, because it likes fertilizer and needs to meet the nutrient needs of rapid growth and mass flowering. But for many flowers and plants, fertilizer can not be applied during flowering, otherwise it is easy to cause fertilizer damage.

In fact, as the longevity flower is a four-season evergreen plant, as long as the environment is suitable, especially if the temperature can meet the requirements, it can usually be fertilized throughout the four seasons. Because it will consume nutrients in its growth, the consumption of nutrients must be replenished in time, otherwise it is easy to grow thin and not exuberant due to lack of nutrients, thus affecting flowering.

Therefore, the blooming longevity flowers can also be fertilized. However, the root system of longevity flower is generally not particularly developed, because it is a perennial succulent herb with a large number of hairy fibrous roots in addition to fleshy roots. If the concentration of fertilizer is too high, it is easy to cause fertilizer damage and damage to its roots. Therefore, if you fertilize longevity flowers, you must insist on applying thin fertilizer diligently.

And because the cold tolerance of longevity flowers is very poor, or not cold-resistant at all. Generally speaking, the lowest temperature for its growth and flowering needs to be kept above 15 °C. if the ambient temperature is lower than it, even if it is growing, it cannot be fertilized during the flowering period. Otherwise, it is easy to bring harm to it, which affects not only the growth but also the flowering. Therefore, to fertilize longevity flowers, it is necessary to ensure that the ambient temperature is above 15 °C.

Of course, if the ambient temperature is lower than 15 °C, it is also necessary to control watering in time, otherwise it is easy to reduce its cold resistance. But it is not cold-resistant, low-temperature watering is easy to reduce the cold-resistant ability of plants, and low-temperature fertilization is easy to cause fertilizer damage. Of course, longevity flowers usually do not blossom at temperatures below 15 °C. Therefore, although the blooming longevity flowers can also be fertilized, we must pay attention to control the concentration and ensure that the temperature is appropriate, and generally only suitable for topdressing phosphorus and potassium fertilizer to promote flowers.
