Do succulent blooms die? What to do with it?

There are many varieties of succulents, and while most succulents are fine with flowering, a small number of species do die or die as a whole after flowering, such as mages, mountain roses, evergreen grasses, vassoons, and agaves.

The first three branches that open after flowering will wither and die immediately, while the latter two will basically die directly as a whole, but you don't have to worry about agave, because they won't bloom for decades.

What if we can't tell which succulents will die after flowering? Quite simply, no matter what kind of succulent it is, as long as we don't want to use it to breed new varieties, we can cut it off as soon as it draws it.

If it is not the side buds that grow after but the flower arrows, then we continue to cut again until it no longer blooms.

In addition, some meat friends said that they can let the mage and the mountain rose bloom first, and then cut off the flower stalk after their flowers open, so that they will not continue to bloom later, I haven't tried this kind of operation, because I belong to the kind of person who sees the flower arrow and directly pinch it off.

In addition, most succulent flowering is not good-looking, and at the same time, it will consume a lot of nutrients, making the plant very thin and ugly, so it is said that succulent flowering is ugly for three years! In view of this, I suggest that everyone should be like me, except for the succulents that you have determined to be used for hybridization, the other succulents should be pinched off as soon as they appear, so as to avoid unnecessary nutrient consumption and ensure the safety of the succulents.

There are many varieties of succulents, and only a small number of succulents will die when they bloom. Succulent flowers can be kept for ornamentation, or the flower arrows can be cut off and other cuttings, and the flower arrows need to be disinfected after subtracting the flower arrows to avoid the fleshy wound from rotting.

Generally, it will not die, but it will consume some nutrients after flowering, and it will wither after flowering. You can choose to cut off the flowers, or add nutrients.

It's not going to die. If we don't want to bloom succulently, we should cut the flowers off in time. In this way, it does not absorb a large amount of nutrients from the plant.

Actually, it's a succulent flower. Succulents are also plants, and they flower and bear fruit just like other plants.

However, it is certain that the succulent flowers under the Sedum family are definitely not as beautiful as its leaves. So when I face the situation of succulent flowering, I usually cut off the flower, so that it does not compete with the succulent for nutrition, and let all the energy of the succulent focus on growing leaves.

In fact, for the succulent under the sedum family, the flowers can be cut, which is the best way to deal with it, otherwise it will affect the growth of the succulent.

Sunlight: Succulents receive at least 3-4 hours of sunlight per day in their native habitat, with some varieties even receiving 6-8 hours of sunlight. Due to the constraints of daily living conditions, it is impossible for the average family to receive long-term high-quality sunshine every day, but as long as there is a south-facing window, at least 2 hours of sunshine per day is sufficient.

Adequate but moderate sunlight can make succulents stronger, more compact, brighter, healthier, less susceptible to fungal infections, and less likely to contract insect infestations. Especially in the spring and autumn growing seasons, it is necessary to increase the number of sunshine hours as much as possible.

Succulents, like other plants, will bloom when raised to a certain extent, which is a natural law, so the subject does not need to be surprised, just treat it with a normal heart. There are many varieties of succulents, but the vast majority of succulents have little ornamental value when they bloom, so many meat lovers are more difficult to deal with when facing succulent flowering, and they don't know what to do! What to do with so many succulents blooming?

The following processing methods are available:

1.Wait for the flowers to bloom and enjoy the flowers quietly.

Although there are very few varieties of succulents that bloom beautifully, there are also a few that bloom very beautifully, such as the beautiful lotus, its beauty is not in the branches of the plant itself, but in its flowers are particularly beautiful, so I specially raised one to enjoy the flowers. If the subject is a flowering succulent of this variety, let it bloom and enjoy the flowers! After all, the purpose of raising this unpopular succulent plant is not to let it out of state, but to see its delicate and beautiful flowers.

2.Cut off the flower arrows to stop flowering.

There are two reasons for this: one is that succulents consume a lot of nutrients from flowering, which can cause them to become very ugly - the leaves become thinner, thinner, the plant shape becomes loose and weak, and it takes a long time to recover, and some of the lean succulents can die from overconsumption of nutrients! If the main thing is to prevent your succulents from becoming ugly, you can pinch them off directly when the flower arrow is just drawn, so that the succulents will not consume too much nutrients.

The second is because there are some succulent plants that will die directly after flowering, such as all varieties of Lotus palm, all varieties of Everweed, all varieties of Vasson, all varieties of Agave and Dian Shilian and Indica of Stone Lotus, etc., if you want to prevent them from dying, the most direct and only way is to directly pinch off the flower arrows before they bloom. If the subject has these types of succulents, it is recommended to start as soon as possible, because once the flower base is formed, it can no longer stop them from blooming!

3.Keep the flower arrow, hybridize the new product.

This is a relatively advanced subject, and the general novice can't play it, because if you want to hybridize a new variety of succulents, you must be artificially pollinated, and it is best to have two succulents of the same family and genus that bloom at the same time, otherwise it is difficult to cross successfully if the affinity is not strong. In addition, in order to ensure the fullness of seeds after pollination and the recovery of succulents in the later stage, they must be applied several times before flowering, such as potassium dihydrogen phosphate, etc., using diligent and thin application, every 10 days or so with water to irrigate the roots.

First, the situation that needs to be cut.

In fact, for most succulent flowers, cutting or not pruning is entirely up to the wishes of the flower friends themselves, although it is a fact that consumes nutrients and affects the plant shape, but the succulent flowers are very characteristic and worth seeing. It should be noted that succulents such as mage series, mountain rose series, and spider silk roll must be cut off when you see flower arrows, because after the flowering period is over, the flowering branch will dry up and die, and some will even die the entire plant. When dealing with flower arrows, you need to wait until the flowers start to bloom before cutting them, and if you cut them too early, you will draw them again.

For succulent flowering at the seedling stage, the best practice is to cut it directly.

2. You can enjoy the flowers with confidence.

Although succulents are not flower-viewing plants, there are some varieties of flowering that are still very beautiful, and they can be used as Kaizai to become flower-watching plant maintenance, such as jasper lotus, green turtle egg, yellow flower Zhaobo, millet star, purple Xuanyue, Dharma Qi Bi Fu Niang, raw stone flowers, cactus cactus succulents, are all assured to enjoy flowers. There are quite a few varieties like this, and that's all I can think of for the time being, if there is a supplementary message to share.

3. Flower arrows can also be used to insert skewers.

For the reproduction of succulents, flower friends commonly use leaf cuttings or branch cuttings, in fact, most of the succulent flower arrows can also be used for cuttings, and some leaf cuttings are difficult to survive varieties, it will be easier to use flower arrows, such as red lotus, Jin Huangxing, and bear boys can use flower arrows to stare at the line of cuttings. As long as there are leaves on the stalks, there is a certain probability of survival, we cut off the flowers directly, and the rest of the operation is similar to the process of cuttings.

Succulents generally bloom once a year in their native places, most of them are concentrated in spring, but when they leave their native places, because of changes in climate, moisture and other environments, succulents rarely bloom, and some may not .....bloom for three or five yearsWhat to do with the succulent flowering, watch it quietly or cut it decisively?

Recently, many succulents such as "Akashi Maru" and "Hozan" have bloomed one after another, which is very amazing, "It turns out that succulents can be so brilliant." However, I heard that succulents die after flowering, but I don't know if it's true? ”

Vashon genus "Zizhi Lianhua": the whole plant dies when it blooms

The succulent genus of Vashon is relatively special, and almost all plants will die after flowering, such as Shiji Renhua, Phoenix, Fuji, etc. Let's take the Zizhi Nianhua as an example, its leaves are arranged in a small rosette shape, and the surface of the leaves is faint. , the tips of the leaves will appear beautiful pink in the sun, and the leaves will also be slightly reddish when the temperature difference is large in winter.

The flowers are pulled out of the center of the plant, and to prevent the flowers from dying after flowering, they can be "decapitated" – the buds can be cut off.

In addition to the succulent genus Vasson, there are also Alba and prodigies of the genus Cyanosaurus, and the Indica and Deqin stone lotus of the genus Stone Lotus will also die after flowering.

Lotus Palm: Flowering does not die

The succulents of the Lotus Palm genus themselves look like a flower, very beautiful, such as the Black Mage, the Flower and Leaf Cold Moon Night, the Spiegel, and the Jade Dragon Guanyin, but their flowers are not beautiful, except for the small human sacrifice. Therefore, to avoid consuming too much nutrients, for the succulents of the lotus palm, the buds can be cut off to prevent them from flowering.

If you want to enjoy the beautiful flowers of the filibuster, you need to pay special attention to its nutrient supply, if you find that the flowers that grow are about to wither before they open, it means that the nutrients are insufficient, and check the soil condition in time to see if it is infected with germs.

The flowers of the genus Lycopodium, Apricot and Pachyphyllum are stunning.

The succulent flowers of the genera Lotus Flower, Apricot Apricot, and Pachyphylla are basically very beautiful, and it is recommended to let them bloom.

Most of their flowers are yellow, but they also have red and orange flowers, and the flowers are very beautiful. In the case of the Black Prince, when it blooms, the flower stem will stretch out very long, and it will produce a large red flower.

The plants of the Apricot family, which do not bloom like a pot of weeds, are stunning when they bloom, such as shining waves.

The succulent flowers of the genus Pachyphylla are similar to those of the genus Lycopodium, but the flowers are more tender in shape.

These three types of succulents can be cultivated to bloom, and they will not die after flower failure, and they can continue to grow well after careful care.

Succulent flowering treatment method

1. For succulents that die when they bloom or the flowers are not amazing, you can cut the buds to prevent them from flowering.

2. When the flower of the genus Lotus flowers, small leaves will grow on the flower stems, and these leaves can be propagated by leaf cuttings, and the success rate is also quite high.

3. The succulent long flower stems can be cut off after flowering and used for flower arrangement, which can generally be kept for about 2 weeks.

4. After flowering, succulents can be put together with flowers of the same genus for natural pollination or artificial pollination, and new varieties may be produced.

Succulent flowering is actually rare, but in most cases there is no need to do too much processing, in fact, the succulents that will die after flowering are only a small part, and the dead are usually the single head (branch) of flowering, such as Vasson, Evergreen, Lotus, see which succulents will die after flowering. And now the most popular genus of lithrophyllis basically does not have to worry about the risk of flowering and death, so don't be afraid of dying.

Another reason why you think that succulent flowering should be cut off is that you are worried that the succulent flowering will consume a lot of nutrients, resulting in the growth of the plant not keeping up with the growth and emaciation. For some soils where there is no basal fertilizer (pure granular soil, peat soil, coconut peat), and the usual watering does not increase the fertilizer, it will indeed cause the nutrients to not keep up after flowering. Originally, there was a bit of nutrient foundation in the soil, or a fertilizer such as potassium dihydrogen phosphate was added to the watering, so there was little need to worry about nutritional problems.

In this case, to cut the flowers, whether to cut or not, you can look at the fertilizer base.

Finally, whether to cut the succulent flowering can depend on personal preference, there are expectations for flowering, if you like it, keep it, add a little fertilizer, if you don't like it much, then cut it. Uncle's personal approach, the succulent flowers of the genus Pseudo-Stone Lotus are much the same, often see too much, just cut it casually, and some genera of succulent, flowering can indeed surprise people.

Succulent flowering is normal, don't worry, if you're going to enjoy the flowers or pollinate the propagation, let the flower stems grow. If these are not needed, it is best to cut off the stems to prevent the succulents from transporting a large amount of nutrients to the buds, which can lead to damage to the maternal morphology.
