As the autumn breeze caresses, the summer heat recedes and the chill rises, and the way plants are maintained should change accordingly. Just as people change their clothes according to the season, flowers also need to adjust their care strategies according to the season. During this season, the most overlooked issue is watering, especially for those flowers that are afraid of waterlogging. At this time, if the watering is not controlled, it can easily bring fatal consequences - rotten roots. Suspense: Which flowers fall victim to overwatering in autumn and winter? How can this tragedy be avoided? First of all, the cactus, the "lazy flower" in the hearts of many flower lovers, is popular for its strong adaptability to arid environments. But don't be fooled by its tough appearance, the cactus' greatest weakness is its fear of waterlogging.
When maintaining cactus, it is key to choose loose and breathable granular soil to prevent water retention for a long time and cause root rot. In autumn and winter, its water requirement is greatly reduced, and at this time, the watering principle is "rather scarce than excessive". Remember, if the potting soil is not dry, wait patiently before watering thoroughly. Then, the Desert Rose, a calm, beautiful creature that stores the water of life in its thick stems. However, watering too much is like poison to it, which can easily lead to smothery roots, rotten roots, and in severe cases, withering along with the flowers. When it comes to the maintenance of desert roses, sandy soil is the best bed, ensuring that the soil is permeable to water and breathe. In autumn and winter, watering should be cautious, and the best time for watering is when the potting soil is dry. This is followed by Ruixiang, whose graceful posture and rich aroma are loved by many.
But don't forget, after autumn, Ruixiang is preparing to show off its buds, and watering should be more cautious at this time. With its fleshy roots, although it yearns for moisture, it is also afraid of waterlogging. Excess water will cause it to lose its leaves and yellow leaves, and in severe cases, it will be uprooted. So, don't rush to water it more, and water it thoroughly once the potting soil is dry. If the environment is dry, spraying its branches and leaves with water mist is sufficient. The last mentioned azalea, the scenery of this autumn and winter season, has captured the hearts of many flower lovers with its bright and festive flowers. The growth environment of rhododendrons is demanding, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will show discomfort, and the yellow leaves and flowers are not alarmist. Rhododendron prefers acidic soils, and well-drained soil can ensure a healthy root system. In autumn and winter, the amount of watering should be controlled to avoid excessive watering and root lesions.
During this season, every drop of water can be the last straw, so when watering, be sure to understand the needs of various plants. Treat them well in exchange for a spring scene full of flowers. Plants need water like human breathing, too much or too little, it is not conducive to growth. In this cold season, how should flower friends water to meet the needs of plants without causing excessive damage?

Careful care, mastering the art of watering without waves, and achieving the prosperity of flowers in a garden are the visions of every friend who loves green plants. But this seemingly peaceful path of conservation is actually a hidden challenge.
Today, let's uncover the secret of watering in flower care. Imagine standing in front of a pot of lush rhododendrons, its bright flowers dancing like flames in the spring breeze, can you resist the urge to pick up a kettle frequently? Here, we can't help but ask the question: how to properly water the rhododendron to ensure the healthy growth of the rhododendron? This answer is not complicated, but it requires patience and observation to carry out. For rhododendrons, once the surface of the potting soil is dry, it is the best time to add water. It may sound simple, however, in the hustle and bustle of life, you may forget about this little thing.
That's why, the cuckoo in some people's homes is always unsatisfactory, perhaps, because of the lack of attention to detail. But if you think that only the cuckoo needs such delicate care, then you may be ignoring another noble guest around you, the Gentleman's Orchid. Its name carries a sense of calm and nobility, and it is undoubtedly the nobility of houseplants. However, although the nobility is noble, it is also quite elaborate on maintenance. With its wide leaves and elegant flowers, it is an excellent choice for indoor display. However, people often report that their own Monarch Orchid has yellow leaves and rotten roots, why is this? The reason may be unexpected to you - poor ventilation and long-term damp potting soil, which is undoubtedly fatal to the root system of Monarch Orchid.

Let us continue to explore the world of flowers. Succulents, for example, often evolved in deserts or arid regions, require much less water than we think. Longevity flowers, crab claw orchids, jade trees, tiger pill orchids, etc. are also afraid of waterlogging, and if these plants encounter too much water, they often have root rot.
Therefore, we also need to be cautious and strictly control watering when caring for these flowers, so that our green partners can grow healthily. You see, raising flowers is not a matter of waving a kettle, it requires our patience and care. Every drop of water should be the result of thought and observation. This seemingly simple maintenance path actually requires us to feel the growth needs of each plant at all times. In this colorful world of plants, every flower, every leaf has its language, and they tell us their needs in their own way. When we learn to listen and observe, then those growing secrets will be revealed to us one by one.
From rhododendrons to junzi orchids, from succulents to longevity flowers, although they are silent, they are constantly reminding us that watering is an art and a responsibility. Finally, let us remember that raising flowers, like health preservation, lies in the word "degree". Finding the right degree, neither too much nor lacking, your garden, your green space, will bloom with the most touching vitality because of your intentions.
