Epiphylla, also known as the beauty under the moon, is a perennial evergreen succulent plant of the cactus family and epiphyllum family. Native to the tropical forests of Mexico and Central and South America, the old branches are flattened, the young branches are triangular stick-shaped, and the flowering period is from June to October, the flowers are white, large and long, and full of fragrance. Most of the flowers bloom at night and wither after a few hours, so it is said to be "short-lived".
It is widely cultivated in families in the north and south of our country.
If the epiphyllum is well maintained, it can bloom 4 to 5 times in a row in the summer and autumn rainy seasons, but the following four problems should be noted.
1.In the spring, when it is removed from the room, it can be repotted and replaced. It is advisable to use a pot slightly larger than 1 cm to 2 cm, too large will often cause too wet, and too small will limit the development of roots.
If there is damage to the roots, they should be excised, and the wound can be coated with charcoal powder or sulfur powder at the very least, and then replanted after drying. After turning the pot, it needs to be placed in a sunny place, and an organic fertilizer combining nitrogen and phosphorus should be applied about once a month to promote the growth of new branches and leaves.
2.The three months of July, August and September in summer and autumn are the key moments of the year to watch flowers, and special attention should be paid to maintenance and strengthen fertilizer and water management. After the first flowering in June, apply a combination of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizer every half a month or so, so that the next three months, it can still bloom once a month, and during this time, the potting soil is generally dry as well, and the stagnant water should be removed immediately after the rain.
Fertilizer should be made with fully fermented and rotted organic fertilizer.
3.At noon in the middle of summer, it is necessary to prevent direct exposure to the sun, otherwise the leaves will turn yellow, affecting growth and flowering.
4.After the frost falls, it needs to be moved indoors and placed in a sunny window. Freeze and keep warm, stop fertilizing. At this time, the potting soil is better to be dry, too wet, often cause the leaves to wilt and droop and even rot roots, and the drier it is, the more cold tolerant.

When cultivating epiphyllum during the flowering period, it is necessary to move the plant to a place with sufficient scattered light, so that it can receive all-weather natural light to promote the flower bud differentiation of epiphylla, and after the epiphyllum blooms, it is necessary to apply urea, potassium dihydrogen phosphate or phosphorus and potassium fertilizer 1-2 times to make the plant grow vigorously.

It is said that it is a flash in the pan, so when is this flash in the pan? Here's what you need to know about when an epiphany blooms, so read it!
When does epiphany bloom
The flowering season of epiphany is generally from June to October, and the flowering time is generally after 8 to 9 o'clock in the evening, most of them are around 10 o'clock in the evening, and the blooming time is only 3 to 4 hours, which is very short.
When the epiphany opens, within the first hour of opening, it opens quickly. The flower tube slowly lifts, the purple coat slowly opens, and the next half hour is the full flowering period, consisting of more than 20 petals. The large flowers, which are as white as snow, bloom, and the petals and stamens are shaking and gorgeous when they open.
After that, there were three regrettable contractions. The contraction process is soothing and lasts for 5 hours until the flowers wither. The best time to see the natural blooming of epiphany is 20:0
00-23:00 (i.e. 8-11 pm), a total of 3 hours. But only 3 or 4 hours later, the corolla closes, and the flowers quickly wither, which can really be described as "short-lived"!
Epiphany blooms several times a year
How many times a year can an epiphany bloom? The relevant information is recorded as 4 5 times, and the flower friends have come to the conclusion of many years of potted experience: it can be opened 6 times a year.
There are flower friends who conduct epiphany planting experiments on the balcony. Over the past 10 years, 46 pots of epiphyllum have been potted (including cuttings), 20 pots have bloomed last year, and the group has bloomed 8 times a year, with a total of 26 days of flowering and a total of 151 flowers. Among them, the potted plant bloomed 6 times in 10 years, and the cumulative number of flowering days reached 20 days, and the total number of flowering flowers reached 34.
Why does epiphany bloom at night
1. Epiphyllum is native to the Mexican desert in the tropical Americas, where the climate is both dry and hot, and after long-term adaptation to natural conditions, it has become not afraid of drought. The leaves of epiphyllum degenerate into very small needles to reduce the transpiration of water, and the temperature is high during the day, and the evaporation of water is large, so it is not enough water to open the flowers, and at night when the temperature is low and the evaporation is low, enough water can be obtained for flowering.
2. This is related to climatic conditions - under the right humidity and temperature, the delicate epiphyllum will bloom. Summers in South America are much cooler at night than during the day, and blooming at night keeps the flowers out of the sun: 21:
00-22:00, temperature 20-26, relative humidity of more than 80%, to have the conditions for epiphany. Late at night, the temperature drops and the epiphany gradually shrinks; Such an open period avoids the damage of high and low temperatures.

3. Lighting conditions
Epiphyllum is a sun-loving plant, but it is not tolerant to strong light exposure, when cultivating epiphyllum, it is necessary to place the plant indoors in a place that can be irradiated to scattered light in the middle of summer, to avoid epiphyllum being exposed to strong direct light, and in the spring, autumn and winter period, epiphyllum can be placed in a bright place to promote its flower bud differentiation.
4. Maintenance method
When maintaining epiphyllum, it is necessary to use iron wire or nylon thread to fix the branches when the plant branches grow to 10 cm to maintain the normal growth of epiphyllum, and in the spring and autumn seasons, apply nitrogen fertilizer or rotted liquid fertilizer every other month to provide the nutrients needed for flowering.
