As long as the temperature is right, longevity flowers can bloom all year round, and if they are kept on the balcony, just one variety can create a garden.
But seeing the longevity flowers of many flower friends, colorful and beautiful, many flower friends are also envious, how can they bloom all year round?
If you want longevity flowers to bloom all year round, you can't do without temperature, sunlight, watering and fertilization, as long as you do these well, anyone can raise them.
Tip 1: Control the temperature
If you want to bloom all year round, you first need to control the temperature, and only when the temperature is kept at 15 to 25 degrees Celsius, can you bloom all year round. Otherwise, it will be difficult to do even if the buds have already grown.
This temperature is easy to achieve in winter, when there is heating in many places, and it is easy to do in spring and autumn. It's just that in the summer, you need to control the temperature, such as moving to an air-conditioned room, so that the temperature is around 15 to 25 degrees.
Secret 2: Prune after flowering, otherwise it will be ugly even if it blooms
Prune the longevity flowers, and pinch the heart when the seedlings are small, that is, they grow to about eight centimeters.
Usually prune the longevity flowers,
After the longevity flower blooms, it needs to be pruned in time, that is, the branch leaves two pairs of leaves, and the top is all cut off. Otherwise, the leaves of longevity flowers will be too vigorous to bloom, and the flowers and leaves will compete for nutrients. And they will grow taller and taller, and their styling will get uglier and uglier.
After the above pruning, you can make the longevity flowers beautiful in shape, and also bloom a lot of auspicious flowers, the longer the more beautiful, the more and more they bloom.
Tip 3: Don't use the wrong fertilizer
Many flower friends raise longevity flowers, always want longevity flowers with lush branches and leaves, and only those that look green can bloom more. In fact, this is not the case, if the longevity flower grows too vigorously, it will not be conducive to flowering. So fertilize longevity flowers, and don't use the wrong fertilizer.
For example, for the longevity of small seedlings, nitrogen fertilizer and potassium fertilizer can be used to promote the growth of strong branches and lush foliage. You can wait for the longevity flower to grow before the flower buds,
Tip 4: Control watering to promote flowering
Kalancho is a succulent plant that can be said to be very drought tolerant, so when we raise kalanchovian, we need to control watering. Because once it is watered too much, it is prone to root rot.
Judge whether the longevity flower needs to be watered, because if you water it too much, not only will there be rotten roots, but it will always keep the longevity flower in the growth period, that is, the leaves are rubbing and long, and not a single bud is long.
On the contrary, after the soil is drier, the longevity flowers will be transformed from the growth period to the reproductive period, and the long flower buds will bloom, which is often called "crisis awareness".

Therefore, when raising longevity flowers, it is recommended to keep them in a sunny place, the more sunlight you have, the more you love to bloom. However, when the sun is too strong in summer, it is necessary to properly shade the sun to prevent sunburn from being too strong. As long as there is more than four hours of direct light every day, there is no worry about flowers.
Longevity flowers raised indoors, especially in summer, when the temperature is too high, if they are not placed in an air-conditioned room, they must be well ventilated. Otherwise, the water is not easy to lose after watering, coupled with the humid air and poor ventilation, it is easy to have pests and diseases, resulting in rotten roots of longevity flowers.
