Time is in a hurry, and it has been 30 years since I raised flowers in a blink of an eye, and in these 30 years, Sister Rong has bought hundreds of pots of flowers. Because I am a flower enthusiast, I raise hundreds of pots of flowers at home every year, and the balcony, bedroom, and living room are full. In the 30 years that I've been raising flowers, at the beginning,
1. Medicinal brocade plants
For example, the first time I bought a succulent, I bought a pot of Yale Dance, the leaves are very brightly colored, it looks particularly attractive, there can be five or six trees in a pot, and the price is about ten yuan. Seeing such a low-priced meat, I was also full of joy to take it home.
But when I was seen by a neighbor, she told me that it was a succulent medicine brocade, and the name was Golden Branches and Jade Leaves, and there was a lot of medicine on it, and then the leaves would change color. Such golden branches and jade leaves, if you raise them well, the color of the leaves will turn green, and if you don't raise them well, they will wither and die, because she has also raised them.
My neighbor also told me that there are many medicinal brocade plants, such as the golden wood, the leaves are obviously green, but after the medicinal treatment, the leaves will turn white, which looks very beautiful, but in fact, they are not good to raise.
Hearing my neighbor say this, I really regret that I didn't ask her for advice in advance, which led to my being deceived.
2. Discolored flowers
When many people buy flowers, they will see beautiful cactus, colorful and look particularly beautiful. Seeing these beautiful flowers, many people want to buy them home. Sister Rong also had such an impulse, so she also bought it.
However, most of these color-changing flowers are sprayed with paint. For example, many of the brightly colored cacti are originally green, but after being spray painted, the colors become colorful. There are also succulents, such as good green gyokuro, which is sprayed with purple lacquer and becomes gyokuro like purple grapes, which doubles in price a lot, but it is not easy to feed.
Because the flowers after spray painting will block the breathing of the flowers, causing them to be unable to photosynthesize normally, let alone grow, so not long after buying home, they will directly empty the pot.
3. Rootless flowers
When I used to go to the flower market, I saw a beautiful triangular plum, not only the flowers are double-petaled, but also the kind of bright red, which looks red and festive, it can be said that I like the flower, so I bought it home for 30 yuan.
But after about five days of raising, the triangular plum fell into flowers and leaves, and became a bare-rod commander. Seeing this, I also hurriedly turned over the pot, thinking that I had watered too much and had rotten roots.
Judging this rootless flower,
4. Arrange fake flowers
Speaking of buying flowers in the past, there was another very foolish experience, that is, I bought a pot of flowers with plastic crane orchids and went home, but I have always taken flowers seriously. I remember that when I bought flowers, I saw a pot of large-leaved green plants, the leaves were fat and big, and the merchant said that it was a crane orchid, and said that you could see that they were all blooming.
At that time, because the price of this pot of flowers was not expensive, it was about 15 yuan. And because we have a saying here that "the family is big and the business is big", and it is said that it is good to raise large-leaf plants at home, so I also bought it home. Unexpectedly, when I turned the pot, I found that the flowers were fake, and they had not bloomed after several years.
5. Flowers with too low prices
Two years ago, I also bought flowers on an Internet, and it was only six or seven yuan, because I love flowers, I feel that spending six or seven yuan is not much, especially when the Chinese New Year is approaching, it will be more festive to have a few more pots of flowers at home.
But the flowers bought for six or seven yuan are usually small and pitiful, only four or five centimeters. Moreover, after long-term transportation, coupled with the cold winter, the flowers bought back usually do not live for more than a few days, and will soon wither and die.
6. Bare root yellow clay flower
Two years ago, I also bought bare-root yellow clay flowers, it was a summer time, and many people sold these flowers in the flower market, and the roots of each flower were wrapped in plastic, wet soil. The price of these flowers is usually very low, only about 10 yuan, but there are many varieties, such as duck's foot, gardenia, hibiscus, jasmine, rubber tree, etc.
I felt that the price of these flowers was very low, and I liked jasmine and rubber trees very much, so I bought two pots and came back. It wasn't until the plastic was removed from the flowers and plants that I found that these flowers were actually yellow mud flowers, that is, they were wrapped in yellow mud and were not breathable at all.
7. Exotic flowers
Sister Rong is a native of Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, and belongs to a typical northerner. But I like southern flowers, such as azaleas, jasmines, osmanthus, gardenias, etc. And I have bought a lot of pots, but these flowers are either yellow leaves that I raise, or fallen leaves, and in serious cases, they will rot the roots.
8. Flowers with pictures
Every year at the flower market, there are flower seedlings with pictures, these pictures of flowers are very beautiful, and people want to buy them when they see them. But I also bought it once, that is, I bought a vine this month, because my family has a small yard, and I want to raise some vines at home to make my home a beautiful sea of flowers.
However, after I planted the flowers I bought, it took me two years to produce some flowers, which were small and weak, not bright in color, and they were single-petaled. It can be said that it is very different from the flowers in the picture.
9. Old pile flowers
Sister Rong has always liked old piles, such as jade trees, fortune trees, iron trees, succulents, etc., so every time she sees old piles, her eyes will be straight, and she can't wait to move all the varieties home.
It wasn't until I bought a pot of old jasmine piles that I realized that I was really deceived, because the branches of this pot of old jasmine piles give people a vigorous and domineering feeling. And there were a lot of flowers blooming at that time. But after being raised by me for a year, the old pile got worse and worse. Later, I heard that they are all eliminated old piles, because jasmine flowers that have been raised for more than eight years usually bloom very little. If you want to bloom more, you need to re-prune and rejuvenate. I also cut it hard, but the old stake is gone.
Conclusion: Buying flowers and raising flowers is a happy thing, don't pay for these scams anymore, you will be sad and discouraged if you don't raise yourself. So when you buy flowers, you must keep your eyes open, don't be like Sister Rong, you only understand after too many scams, and stop losses in advance!#Headline Creation Challenge#
