As October begins to take shape, autumn is getting stronger, but in many cities in the north, the weather doesn't seem to be going to turn colder as planned. Overnight, they seem to span the entire autumn and enter winter in one second. Shuttling through the streets of the city, the crowd that was still walking easily in short sleeves yesterday is already hurried with a tight coat today. The sudden drop in temperature has not only caught people off guard, but also the flowers and plants that are kept outdoors have fallen into a state of malaise. Especially those "greenhouse flowers" from the south, in this north wind, they seem to be silently enduring the cold torture. Having said that, some flowers and plants are like friends around us who are afraid of the cold, and they always need more care and protection.
For example, the Triangle Plum, the southern beauty, has a hard time in the winter in the north. It blooms in the hot summer, but as soon as it reaches below 10 degrees, it begins to show symptoms of frostbite, the originally elegant leaves begin to wilt, and the buds that struggle to bloom also helplessly put away their smiles. However, as long as we move them to a warm house in time and let in a few days of soft sunlight, they can still be rejuvenated. If the indoor temperature can be maintained at around 20 degrees, the triangular plum will not only survive, but it may also surprise you to continue its flower show.
At this time, if it is applied again with compound slow-release fertilizer, or potassium dihydrogen phosphate once every 10 days, it will have more confidence to bloom in the cold winter. Copper money grass is also a little guy who can't tolerate the cold of the northern winter. Aquatic it, once the temperature drops below 10 degrees, it becomes weak and the leaves turn yellow. But don't worry, move it to a well-lit room, cut off the yellow leaves in time, add a few drops of nutrient solution, and it will still be able to survive tenaciously. For families with heating, as soon as the heating is turned on, the copper coin grass can quickly regain its mellow and green vitality.
Let's talk about periwinkle, this four-season flowering flower once it encounters a low temperature below 15 degrees, it begins to gradually lose its magic, the flower bud differentiation ability is weakened, below 8 degrees, and the frostbite of yellow leaves makes it even more unsustainable. After moving indoors, prune slightly, cut off the branches, and reduce the water supply, so that it can survive the cold winter. When the temperature rises, you will be pleasantly surprised to find that periwinkle can still exert its ability to "Changchun is not old" and continue to bloom. Blue Snowflake, I have to mention another beautiful existence with a good look. It has a long flowering period and tenacious vitality, but it is only afraid of cold.
When the temperature is lower than 5 degrees, the potted blue snowflakes can only bid farewell to the natural scenery outdoors and move into human settlements to continue its life journey. In the cold wind, have you ever thought that those flowers and plants that are shivering outdoors are quietly waiting for a warm care? Their world is also quietly changing as the temperature drops. We can't control nature, but at least during this icy season, we can provide a warm haven for those flowers and plants that are afraid of cold. Just as people need each other's warmth, flowers and plants also need our care.
In this late autumn, when you buy yourself a heavy coat, don't forget, maybe a pot of flowers and a bush of grass in your home are also silently looking forward to the warmth and love from you. Don't let them wait alone in the cold wind, let's take action and welcome them into the warmth of their homes. In this way, the warmth of winter is not only the temperature, but also from every heart that cares for life. In this fleeting season, let's protect those fragile green lives together and leave a different kind of warm memory. As the footsteps of late autumn quietly leave, a silent variation is playing out outside our windows. The last leaves fall from the treetops, and the overture of winter slowly unfolds.
However, when many lives in nature begin to enter the dormant period, there is a group of tenacious little beings who still bloom with charming brilliance in the warmth of their homes. Today, let me tell you how to make these beautiful plant partners still vibrant in the cold winter. Did you know that the dazzling blue snowflakes can bloom in cold climates. If you don't have heating in your home, you may need a little bit of thought to help them survive the winter. Proper pruning can reduce their nutrient consumption and help them stay alive. If you have a heating device in your home, blue snowflakes can even continue to bloom.
Although the ability to burst flowers is weakened, as long as they are placed in a sunny corner and a solution of potassium dihydrogen phosphate is applied at the right time, they will soon have a new flowering period. Next, let's uncover the winter secrets of longevity flowers. Maybe you haven't known that longevity flowers don't like the cold. If you're still growing outdoors, now is the time to move them into a warm home. In environments above 15 degrees, they have a chance to bloom again. If they are still shy, try pinching off the top leaflets and applying a compound fertilizer. After half a month, water the potting soil with 0.1% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution once every 7 to 10 days. After 3 or 4 times, you may be able to see the buds gradually appear.
However, not all plants are as hardy as blue snowflakes or kalanos. Fragile Milan is extremely sensitive to the low temperatures of winter, with yellow leaves or leaf loss when the temperature drops below 10 degrees, and frostbite and death below 5 degrees. Remember to move them indoors at night when the temperature drops below 10 degrees Celsius, and make sure you get enough sunlight to maintain a temperature of more than 10 degrees. Try to avoid watering or fertilizing Milan at low temperatures to prevent root damage. Tough geraniums seem to be more resistant to the challenges of winter, and they are drought tolerant than many flowers.
But in winter, we still need to take care of them carefully to avoid encountering the cold below 0 degrees. Of course, if the temperature is pleasant, a warm interior will still allow geraniums to continue to show their flowers. Just wait for the potting soil to dry and then water it again, let them enjoy plenty of sunshine, and occasionally apply a little fertilizer, and they will have a happy winter. As for those that are prevalent indoors, as the temperature decreases, they will also encounter difficulties in growing. The phenomenon of yellow leaves is frequent, and we must be more careful. Know that even houseplants need our attention and protection. The maintenance of flowers, like an art, also requires our Xi and practice.
Different plants require different care, and sometimes, a little change can make them rejuvenate in a different way. So, are you ready to meet the challenge of fighting the cold now, so that your green friends can enjoy a comfortable home in the cold winter? When we master the right maintenance methods, these beautiful plants can bring a touch of spring warmth and color to our lives in winter. Their existence reminds us that even in the coldest environment, the tenacity and beauty of life are still worthy of our care and cherishment.
Let's put more love and care together, whether it is a long winter night or a short winter sunshine, it can become a warm stroke in these green life stories. With the autumn breeze gently blowing on our faces, we felt a hint of chill sneaking in. In such a season, not only do we need to dress and keep warm, but even the clusters of verdant plants in our homes begin to face the challenge of survival. Today, I would like to talk about those rich bamboos that live quietly in hydroponic bottles, and how they still maintain their vigorous vitality in winter. Fugui bamboo, the name sounds like it reveals an auspicious and prosperous atmosphere.
They gracefully decorate many home and office spaces, beautifying the environment and bringing good luck. However, Fugui bamboos are also alive, they are also afraid of cold, and they also need careful care. First of all, it is important to know that the impact of temperature on Fugui bamboo is huge. Once the temperature falls below 10 degrees, Fugui bamboos enter the critical point of their survival. At this time, are you still nourishing them with nutrient solution? That has to stop! Because at low temperatures, the growth rate of Fugui bamboo will slow down significantly, and continuing to supply nutrient solution will only increase their burden, and even damage their root system. You may ask: what about the water? Tell you, the amount of water in the hydroponic bottle also has to be controlled within a certain range.
Don't exceed half of the bottle, too much moisture is not only not conducive to the breathing of Fugui bamboo, but also easy to cause rot at low temperatures. It's something to avoid, because we all want them to survive the winter in good health. Then, it's time for some careful pruning of the bamboo. Yellowed leaves are an unhealthy sign that can affect other healthy parts if left untreated. So, pick up the scissors and cut them bravely so that Fugui bamboo can breathe better and photosynthesize more effectively. When it comes to photosynthesis, this brings us to the importance of basking in the sun. You may think, the sun is so weak in winter, is it useful to bask in the sun?
On the one hand, it is to enhance the photosynthesis of Fugui bamboo and maintain the vitality of life, and on the other hand, it is to make them feel "warm", like putting on a light little coat for them. However, there is a more practical tip waiting for you. Have you ever thought about using a transparent plastic bag to create a simple little greenhouse? Yes, it is to completely cover the Fugui bamboo from top to bottom, and do not tie it tightly at the bottom, leaving some gaps to maintain proper ventilation. At the same time, some small holes should be pierced on it to ensure the exchange of gases. Such a small greenhouse can effectively collect heat, help Fugui bamboo resist the cold, so that they can also enjoy the "warmth" in winter.
These seemingly simple operations are all meticulous care for the growth environment of Fugui bamboo. You may not see the results right away, but, as time goes on, when you see them glowing more vigorously in the spring, you'll understand that all this careful care is worth it. In this season when the temperature is gradually dropping, you may want to take some time to prepare for the little green life in your home. Adjust their living environment, pay attention to their growth, and protect them with your love and patience. Of course, these tips are not only applicable to Fugui bamboo, but also to other houseplants.
While caring, you may find that plants not only bring us a symbol of beauty and auspiciousness, but they also quietly teach us some truths in life - no matter how harsh the environment is, as long as there is love and care, life can always find a warm place. So, from now on, give Fugui bamboo a warm winter, let them meet a more brilliant tomorrow under your care.
