When is the blooming season of gesang flowers? Which month do they bloom?
Gesang flowers generally bloom from May to October. But the blooming season varies by region. For example, in northern regions, if sown from April to June, they will bloom successively from June to August; in August-September, due to the hot climate and frequent rain, there will be fewer blooms. After the weather turns cool in autumn, they continue to bloom until the first frost. Now let's take a look at how to grow gesang flowers!
1. Planting methods and precautions for gesang flowers
1. Sowing method
The suitable temperature for germination is 12-16°C. Direct sowing in the open ground is suitable, and seedling raising is also possible; when sowing, cover with soil about 2 times the diameter of the seed, and seedlings emerge in about 5-10 days. Planting method: transplant when the seedlings have 5-6 true leaves, with a planting distance of 30-50cm. It is robust, and likes a sunny, well-ventilated environment. It has no strict requirements for soil, but cannot tolerate waterlogging, is not cold-resistant, and dislikes extreme heat. It tolerates poor and barren soil.
2. Care method
The suitable temperature for growth is 20-30°C. During the seedling stage, it needs short-day treatment to bloom normally. During the growing period, pinch off the tips to encourage branching, and control excessive height to prevent lodging later.
In fact, growing gesang flowers is relatively simple and does not require much management.
