Blue Devil: What plants are dormant in summer? If you are a novice, you must finish reading it.

Every summer, many of our flower friends start collecting flower pots. After a summer, we can collect many empty flowerpots in autumn. Although autumn is the harvest season, collecting pots is not a happy thing. So what can be done to reduce the casualties of summer flowers? The most important thing is to control the water and fertilizer of dormant plants.

Common dormant plants in summer

Many plants hibernate in the high temperature environment in summer, which is quite common. Blue Devils listed the following 9 kinds to see if you have them.

1, Margaret

Margaret, also known as Mu Chunju, is also known as the virgin flower. She has many colors and flowers, so it is easy to raise a pot, but difficult to spend the summer.

When it is hot in summer, Margaret will go into a dormant state, just like a withered wood, which is easily discarded like withering. In the north, it is easier to spend the summer, but in the hot and humid areas in the south, Margaret basically dies in the summer. Therefore, Margaret, who is in a dormant state, wants to completely control water and fertilizer, or even completely cut off water, which is very difficult to do in the hot and humid southern region.

2. Crab claw orchid

Crab claw orchid should be raised by many flower friends, right? Flowering is indeed a fairy's descent, but it is also a long-standing problem for the crab claw orchid to escape the summer. Because crab claw orchids hibernate in summer, it is difficult to control water after hibernation. If you can't help watering, it's easy to rot the roots, causing the leaves of the crab claw orchid to fall off one by one.

In summer, it is best to keep the crab claw orchid in an air-conditioned room for maintenance. Crab claw orchid is in a state of continuous growth, and watering is not that difficult. If you breed at room temperature, you must avoid rain and light. When the soil in the basin is really dry, use the water tray to replenish some water. Don't pour it directly, it's easy to rot.

3. longevity flower

Many flower lovers may not know that longevity flowers also sleep in summer. But longevity flower is much better than crab claw orchid. It's not that difficult to spend the summer, as long as you remember to water less and keep the soil dry, it's basically not too difficult.

The disadvantage is that the plant type of the old pile of longevity flowers will be more difficult to control and ugly, so Lan Yao suggested that you prune the cuttings for later use after the longevity flowers bloom.

4.geranium

Geranium is very afraid of heat and is prone to black rot in high temperature and high humidity environment. Be sure to control watering in summer and put it in a cool place to avoid rain.

Don't water until the soil in the basin is dry. Don't water geraniums repeatedly. Water geraniums in summer. You can water them along the edge of the basin without watering them thoroughly. Keep ventilation after watering, otherwise it will rot easily and the fertilizer will be useless.

What needs your attention is that you should continue to pay attention to controlling water and fertilizer after autumn. Many flower friends' geraniums spent the hot summer, but they died in early autumn.

5. Primula plants

In summer, the aboveground parts of cyclamen will wither and the underground parts will go into dormancy. At present, most cyclamen with flower friends should have only a few leaves. In fact, this indicates that cyclamen is about to enter a dormant period, and water and fertilizer should be controlled in time. When the aboveground part is completely withered, water and fertilizer should be cut off, or seeds should be dug out for storage.

6.rieger begonia

Rieger begonia is also a persistent problem in summer, and it is easy to rot. In summer, besides controlling water and fertilizer, it is best to prune in time. In many plants, small seedlings are more heat-resistant than large seedlings.

7. Hang upside down.

The upside-down golden bell flower is really beautiful, especially easy to raise in the north, but in the hot and humid south, it basically dies in summer. Try to control water, shelter from rain and shade.

8. Daphne odora in Phnom Penh

Daphne odora is also easy to hang in summer. Pay attention to proper water control in summer, and don't let the pot soil of Daphne odora in Phnom Penh be in a very humid state all the time. In addition, pay attention to shading. Daphne odora is a sun-resistant plant, which likes semi-cloudy environment. It is also possible to put astigmatism in summer.

9. Clivia

Clivia in the air-conditioned room will continue to grow in summer, and the management is relatively not so difficult. If it is clivia in natural environment, it needs strict water control and fertilizer control in summer. Clivia in a dormant state, once watered too much, is easy to rot roots and plants.

10, American tea

American tea is a kind of plant that only began to rise in the past two years, with blue flowers. Although the data show that it is solid and easy to raise, it is actually difficult to raise American tea in the hot and humid southern region.

American tea is cold-resistant, but not hot and humid, and because it is a newly emerging ornamental plant, the price is relatively expensive at present, reminding southern flower friends to avoid stepping on the pit.

1 1, Ji

Ji is a perennial grass flower, very explosive. However, due to the lush and creeping growth of plants, if it is hot and humid in summer, it is easy to put them away, resulting in stuffy roots and withered whole plants. Pay attention to shading and control watering in summer. After each watering, we should strengthen ventilation. It is best to put branches and leaves on the shelf to increase the ventilation at the bottom.

12, Little Hibiscus

The root system of Hibiscus parviflora is mainly capillary root, which is not tolerant to drought and humidity. Take shelter from the rain and maintain it in summer. When watering, you should also pay attention to the wet and dry, not too dry or too much water, otherwise it is easy to hang up. When the weather is wet, you can add a little mildew when watering to prevent stuffy roots.
