What if the flower buds don't bloom?

Daphne odora is a very fragrant flowering plant, at the same time because of its golden leaf edge, as if it was inlaid with a golden edge, so it is suitable for viewing flowers, but also suitable for viewing leaves, but also very fragrant. And Phnom Penh Daphne afraid of direct light, like scattered light and smooth ventilation of warm, semi-shade environment, so it is very suitable for indoor maintenance near the windowsill.

However, sometimes we will encounter abnormal flowering of Daphne odora, especially when the plants only grow buds and do not open flower buds. In order to find out what is going on and to solve this problem better, Xiaobian will discuss it with you today.

Daphne odora is a kind of shade-tolerant flower plant. Although it is not resistant to direct light, it prefers bright environment with sufficient scattered light. Especially in flowering, light is essential and even plays an important role in promoting flower bud differentiation. However, if the light is insufficient, it is more likely to lead to slow flowering and poor results, because it is difficult for plants to form robust flower buds and it is more difficult to conceive mature flower buds.

At the same time, Daphne odora is a kind of flowering plant with poor cold tolerance, but its flowering period is in winter when the temperature is low. If the temperature is too low, not only the plant is easy to freeze, but also affects its flowering, mainly leading to slow flowering, late flowering, bud drop and other situations. Moreover, when the temperature was too low, it would also cause the plants to freeze. Not to mention that it was difficult to bloom as scheduled, it would be good to keep their lives.

In addition, Daphne odora is, after all, a fragrant flowering plant. If you want it to bloom smoothly as scheduled, you need sufficient nutrients as support. If the nutrient is insufficient, it may also cause the plant to only produce buds and fail to open flower buds. In the case of immature flower buds, the plant naturally has no more energy to promote flowering.

In order to change this situation, we need to take timely and correct measures. On the one hand, it is necessary to move the potted plants to a warm place indoors for maintenance, and it is recommended to put them near the window for easy harvesting of light; on the other hand, keep the indoor ambient temperature at about 10°C to better promote the development of flower buds; moreover, timely supplement fertilizer, and apply potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution at flowering stage, and directly irrigate roots or spray leaves.

Of course, if necessary, it is necessary to control the water properly, so as to ensure that the plants can bloom smoothly as scheduled, and there will be no bud drop, flower drop situation, flowering effect will also be satisfactory. Therefore, light, temperature, water and fertilizer management have important effects on flowering of Daphne odora.
