How to grow moon flowers? How to plant seasonal flowers

The moon flowers need to bask in the sun and need a lot of fertilizer and water to bloom beautifully.

Planting moon flowers is very simple, just a few steps, and you will be able to see it at a glance!

If you want to cultivate the moon flower, you need to choose loose and fertile, humus-rich soil for it, and then plant the plant into the soil, and water it every 10 days to maintain the normal growth of the moon flower, if you want to make the plant grow more vigorously, you can regularly apply nitrogen fertilizer to the moon flower to promote the growth of the plant.

1. Soil conditions

If you want to grow moonflowers, you can choose a loose and fertile soil rich in humus, add peat and saprophyte leaves to the soil to increase the fertility of the soil, and then plant the plants in the soil.

2. Provide moisture

After the moon flowers are planted, they need to be watered once to keep the soil moist and promote the plants to quickly adapt to the environment, and after the moon flowers are adapted, the plants can be watered every 10 days, so that the moon flowers can absorb enough water and grow healthily.

3. Provide nutrients

If you want to make the peanut grow more vigorously, you can apply nitrogen fertilizer to the plant every 10-15 days to provide the nutrients needed for the growth of the flower and promote the growth of the plant, but when fertilizing, the fertilizer needs to be diluted, otherwise the root system of the flower is easy to be burned.

4. Growth habits

In the process of growing, there is a great demand for light, if the plant does not receive enough light for a long time during breeding, the growth of the flower will be hindered, resulting in the plant growing leaves are very small and diseased.

1. Cultivation method.

1. Temperature: The moon flowers like warm, smooth ventilation and good drainage performance of the growth environment, the optimal temperature is 15-26, when the summer temperature is higher than 30, the growth and development of the plant is in a sluggish stage, at this time to give an appropriate amount of shade treatment, remember not to completely shade the sun.

2. Water supply: from the budding stage of the plant to the flowering of the whole period is a very large water requirement, during which it is necessary to ensure that the soil in the pot is in a moist state, so that the humidity conditions are conducive to the growth and development of the plant stems, and the water supply should be strictly controlled after entering the dormant period.

3. Fertilization: Sufficient nutrients can supply the growth and development of the plant, so that it can grow better, so we must pay attention to the supply of fertilizer, and determine the application of fertilizer according to the growth status of the plant, and top dressing 2-3 times Bika water-soluble fertilizer can be.

2. Precautions.

1. The moon flower is a positive plant, but when the temperature is higher than 30 in summer, it can not be exposed to the sun, and the strong light will burn the leaves, so it should be given timely shade treatment, but it can not be placed in a dark and damp place.

2. The supply of water must be timely and appropriate, and the water supply must be strictly controlled during the dormant period.

3. In the flowering stage, an appropriate amount of top dressing should be done 2-3 times to ensure that it has enough nutrients and the flowers will be more colorful.

Miniature moon season is a kind of small moon season, the plant height is generally less than 30 cm, the branches, leaves, flowers are small, and the flower color is extremely rich, there are red, pink, yellow, white and complex colors and other brilliant colors, as long as the temperature, light conditions are suitable, can bloom all year round.

The habits of the micro moon season are basically the same as those of the common moon season. Likes light, does not tolerate shade, likes mild climate, is afraid of heat, and is more cold-tolerant. It is suitable for growing in loose and fertile sandy loam soils. The following points should be paid attention to in cultivating micro moons:

1) Choose a pot and medium. Due to the shallow roots of the miniature moon plant, it is advisable to choose a tile pot with a diameter of 18 20 cm when planting. The cultivation medium should be rich in organic matter, loose and fertile, and good permeability.

If heavy clay or calcareous soil is used, the light case will be poor, and the heavy plant will die entirely.

2) Water and fertilizer management should be appropriate. Due to the small size of the micro-moon foliage, the water requirement is less, and it is advisable to keep the potting soil moist frequently during the growing season. Too little watering, poor growth; Excessive watering can easily lead to root rot.

It likes fertilizer, and if you want it to bloom often, you need to constantly replenish nutrients. When fertilizing, we should master the principle of "thin fertilizer and diligent application", and during the growth period, we generally apply the well-rotted thin cake fertilizer water once every half month, such as spraying 1 2 times of potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution during the pregnancy bud period, the flower color is more vivid. In the middle of summer, the plants are semi-dormant and fertilization should be suspended.

3) Prune often. In order for it to produce more flowers throughout the year, it is necessary to constantly prune the old branches and encourage new branches to germinate. Heavy pruning in early spring combined with repotting (generally once every 1 2 years).

Generally, only 3 4 main branches are retained, and each main branch is kept 3 5 cm long from the base, and the upper branches are cut off, so that more new strong branches can sprout, forming a plump plant shape with lush branches and leaves and continuous flowering. After flowering, the residual peduncle should be cut off in time to reduce nutrient consumption and promote the growth of new branches.

4) It is a positive flowering tree, which grows vigorously under full sunlight conditions, and the flowers are colorful. Therefore, when cultivating potted plants, in addition to being placed indoors for a few days each time they bloom, they should be placed on a south-facing balcony or a sunny place in the courtyard during the growth period, so that they can receive sufficient light. The intensity of the festival in the northern summer is high, and the growth is better if you need proper shade around noon.

As with bonsai, they need to be moved to a low-temperature room for wintering after winter. Cuttings are used for propagation.
