Cyclamen can be grown for a maximum of a few years Cyclamen can live for a few years and for how lon

The living environment is good, up to 100 years.

Cyclamen. The flowering of old bulbs is delayed year by year, but the number of flowers is large, and the maximum number of flowers can be more than 50 at a time. After 4 years of flowering, the old bulb will gradually age, the number of flowers will be greatly reduced, and the cultivation value will be lost, and the bulb is also easy to rot, so it should be renewed in time.

Adult cyclamen bulbs usually bloom in early December and reach full bloom in the second year. To prolong the flowering period, it can be placed in a cooler place after flowering. After that, as the outside temperature rises, flowering gradually decreases by May, but varieties that bloom later can still bloom in June.

Cyclamen has a lifespan of 20 to 25 years, and the old bulbs bloom more vigorously, but they are more likely to die after 10 years. The old ball is dormant. When the temperature is above 30, the bulb is dormant.

At that time, the cyclamen can be placed outdoors in a cool place to shelter from the rain and watering should be reduced. It is better to have a dry potting soil, but be careful not to over-dry it to prevent the bulbs from drying up or germinating and flowering too late, so that they can safely enter a dormant state.

It has been recorded for hundreds of years. Bulbs can reach a diameter of more than 50 cm. When I first started raising flowers, I bought a pot of cyclamen at the flower market in Shenyang Bayi Park, and I bought it in 96 years, and I bought it for 70 yuan at that time.

The cinder matrix mixed with ordinary soil is used, and the pot is a mud basin. Flowers bloom 125 at the same time and there are a lot of buds, bulb diameter of about eight centimeters, the seller said that it is five years old, in my hand to raise to 08 years of bulb diameter reached 15 cm, because of poor flowering, 300 yuan sold to a bonsai lover in Shenyang.

How to maintain the flowering period of cyclamen, I just raised it, and I need to learn urgently.

It's up to you! It's been in my hands for a year, ashamed!

Among the many flowers, when does cyclamen sow seeds? How many years can cyclamen be grown? Let's take a look.

1. Cyclamen sowing time.

Cyclamen flowers and plants, its sowing time is best from February to May every year, which is a time period, and the other is in the three months of August to October every year, the cyclamen seeds sown during these two periods, the germination rate is relatively high, and the growth of the plant will be the best.

Of course, there are some ways to sow cyclamen seeds, such as first choosing some plump cyclamen seeds, but the seeds should not be too big, then wash them with water, soak them in sodium phosphate solution, disinfect them for 10 to 15 minutes, and then soak the seeds in warm water to improve the germination rate of the seeds, which is also considered the process of germination.

2. Cyclamen cultivation methods.

1. Suitable sunlight.

Cyclamen is a medium-light plant, and its light requirements are strict, and it needs to be exposed to long days of sunlight during the growth stage. In the summer season, when it is in the dormant stage, you should avoid direct sunlight and take measures to avoid the rain.

2. Slightly acidic soil.

The roots of cyclamen are fleshy and cannot tolerate moisture, so the soil needs to be loose and rich in organic matter, which can be mixed with peat and perlite in a ratio of 2:1.

3. Temperature range.

The temperature of cyclamen is around 20 and can not tolerate the heat, and if it reaches 28-30 in summer, it will go into a dormant state. Winter should not be too cold, and the temperature should not be lower than 10 during the flowering period.

4. Water application.

5. Fertilizer application.

Cyclamen is a perennial bulbous plant that can live for a long time. As long as it is properly managed, it can be maintained for 20-30 years. As long as the bulbs are strong, there is no problem with continuous flowering, and there is no phenomenon that the number of flowers decreases after one or two years of maintenance.

Among them, the maintenance time of 5 to 10 years is relatively large, and the time of maintenance is 20 years is very small. Most of them are because they are afraid of death caused by high temperatures and waterlogging.

Cyclamen usually blooms in December every winter. The flowering time is relatively long, lasting between February and March of the following year. With proper care, flowering may last until May.

That is, it will be held for up to half a year. It just so happens that the flowering period is in time for the Spring Festival, which will add a festive atmosphere to the home.

Do not move the pot too often during the blooming period of cyclamen and do not change the environment in which it grows, so that the flowers are not affected and do not fall off. Usually let it bask in more sunlight and give it plenty of light. But be careful not to expose yourself to the sun.

In addition, it is necessary to control the water, watering should not be excessive, and the soil must not accumulate water, otherwise the flower buds will easily fall and the flowering period will end early.

Sowing and propagating: Collect seeds, soak them and plant them in pots to ensure that they are moist and germinate in 40 days. Propagation by tubers:

Cut the tuber lengthwise from the top, to include the bud eye, and dry it to plant it in a pot. Tissue culture: select part of its explant, hormones induce it to grow seedlings, and then implant it in pots.

1. Sowing and propagating.

First of all, we should collect its seeds, pay attention to the selected seeds to be full and healthy, the freshly picked seeds may contain more water, we can dry it in the shade for 3 to 4 days, and then dry it in the sun. It is best to sow seeds after the beginning of autumn before light snowfall. Before sowing, soak the seeds in water for about one night.

The soaked seeds are then planted in the potting soil prepared in advance and watered sufficiently. After that, keep the soil moist and give it the right temperature, and it will germinate in about 40 days.

2. Propagation by tubers.

This method of reproduction requires us to do the dicing ourselves. The time is usually in late August, when the tubers are about to sprout. We need to cut the tuber lengthwise from the top of it into several small pieces, taking care that each small piece contains the bud eye, and we need to apply plant ash to sterilize the incision.

Then put it in the shade to dry, after which you can plant it in a pot prepared in advance. As long as it is patiently cared for, it will soon grow leaves.

3. Tissue culture propagation.

We can take a plant that has been growing for 1 to 2 years and select its young stems or stamens as explants. It is then induced to grow seedlings with hormones, where the stems are the most easily induced. If the stem tuber is selected as the explant, then we can use MS medium.

After the seedlings grow, let them gradually receive light, and then plant them in the potting soil prepared in advance, give them a suitable environment, and it will soon grow leaves and flower. However, this method is not very practical for families, so we usually use the first two methods.
