In fact, there are so many kinds of flowers in our life. It's not only the pineapple and Chlorophytum that are easy to raise. Today, Huahua wants to recommend a kind of pink flower to you. Its name is Xiaogong lantern. When it blooms, it looks very good. The most important thing is that it is as well nourished as Chlorophytum and other plants.
This kind of flower belongs to one of the varieties of longevity flower, because it blossoms like little lanterns hanging on the branches and leaves, so it is called "Little Palace lamp". The flower body of the palace lantern is usually dark red, which is very amazing when looking at it from afar. Although it is a flowering flower, but this kind of flower does not have the slightest "delicate", it is easy to care.
The palace lantern has its own requirements on the selection of soil. Generally, the heavy and sticky soil can not be used for planting. It likes loose and fertile sandy soil, the best soil is weak acid, which can give and supplement the soil nutrients it needs when it grows, and the flower root will grow stronger and stronger in this soil.
The requirements of small palace lamp for light are not strict, and it can grow well under any light conditions. However, it prefers to grow in a sunny area. When it is maintained at home, it can be placed on the south facing balcony. In summer, remember to shade. After receiving sufficient light, the growth speed of small palace lamp will be improved, as will the number of flowers. However, we can turn the direction of the palace lamp regularly, so that the light will be even and the viewing value will be higher
Small palace lamp belongs to a kind of longevity flower, naturally it is also a kind of fleshy flower. Generally, the leaves of fleshy flower will be thicker, which shows that the water storage is very high, so palace lamp longevity flower is a kind of more drought resistant flower. It can be watered at a frequency of about 3 days. In summer, the amount of water can be reduced properly. In winter, it is necessary to water more and stop fertilization. When maintaining the small palace lamp, pay attention to check the pot soil temperature. If the temperature is too high, remember to open the window for ventilation.
Fertilizer is an indispensable part of any kind of plants and flowers, so is the lantern. When we plant the lantern, we can use bone meal and compound fertilizer as base fertilizer, so that we can see the growth advantage of the lantern in the early stage. In the peak growing season, if you want to have more flowers, you need to apply compound fertilizer containing nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium once a week to promote flower bud differentiation. However, pay attention not to splash on the leaves when applying fertilizer, in case that the fertilizer effect is too strong and the leaves are burned
After the lantern grows high, you can choose to support it with a few branches, which will not only increase the ornamental, but also the growth speed. How do you like this flower? Like the flower friends can quickly start, is really bear to see and bear to raise!
