The weather is warming up now, and in some places the flowers have already bloomed. It's time again for flower lovers to show what they can do! Today Huahua recommends a few flowers that survive as soon as they touch soil. With just a little care, they grow vigorously and beautifully, and raising one gives you such a sense of accomplishment! Let's take a look~

Flower 1: Geranium!

Attention, gardening friends: you absolutely must not miss the geranium. That's because it is not only easy to grow and beautiful in appearance, but also relatively easy to grow into a full pot. A skilled grower can turn a geranium into a big flower ball, which is so enviable!

1. Where is the best place to keep a geranium?

The growing environment geraniums like best is warm, humid and sunny, so you can put geraniums on an indoor south-facing balcony. Once the temperature is above 10°C, they can be grown outdoors.

2. Daily care for geraniums:

Geraniums are a flower that needs less watering. Before watering, check how dry or moist the potting soil is. Poke a wooden stick or chopstick into the pot. If the stick is moist, there is no need to water; if it is dry, then water.

3. How can you grow a geranium into a big flower ball?

After the weather warms up, geraniums grow faster and faster. At this time we need to replenish nutrients in time, for example watering the flowers once every 1 or 2 weeks with decomposed cake fertilizer water, or a 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution.

After the geranium has grown taller, you can prune it appropriately to promote the growth of side branches. Counting downward from where the flower branch sprouts, start cutting at the place with 3 or 4 pairs of leaves, and cut off the flower buds.

Flower 2: Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus syriacus)!

Rose of Sharon is also a very fresh and beautiful flower, with green branches and leaves and bright, elegant flowers. Keeping one at home is very pretty, and you can also shape it~

1. Where is the best place to keep Rose of Sharon?

Rose of Sharon is not afraid of sun; the more sun it gets, the more vigorously it blooms. Now that temperatures are rising, Rose of Sharon begins to grow rapidly. You can place it by a window, on a balcony, or anywhere with good light.

2. Daily care for Rose of Sharon:

Normally you don't need to fuss over it much; just water it well. When watering, it is best to use slightly acidic water such as rainwater. After collecting tap water, don't use it immediately. Let it sit indoors for 1 or 2 days. This not only lets the chlorine dissipate, but also raises the water temperature, avoiding shock to the roots.

3. How can you grow Rose of Sharon into a lollipop shape?

In spring, fertilize Rose of Sharon mainly with nitrogen fertilizer, such as cooked soybeans, once every 2 weeks. After summer begins, use more phosphorus fertilizer to promote blooming, applying a dilute phosphorus fertilizer about once every 10 days.

The most common shape for Rose of Sharon is the lollipop shape, with a flower ball on an upright stem, which is very cute. Starting from the seedling stage, pinch off the top, leaving only the terminal bud. After side buds grow, pinch them again, and it will grow into a ball shape. Once it blooms, it becomes a big flower ball.

Flower 3: Petunia!

Besides the above two flowers, there is another flower that is also deeply loved by everyone,

and that is the petunia. Petunias come in especially many colors, and the flowers are as beautiful as butterflies. Keeping one is a delight to the eyes!

1. Where is the best place to keep a petunia?

Petunias like a warm, well-ventilated, sunny living environment. If indoor lighting conditions are good, just place it in the living room. If the light is not very good, put it by the window, or take it out into the sun every 3 or 4 days.

2. Daily care for petunias:

Keep the room temperature at around 10°C, and petunias will grow very well. The temperature is not high now, so there is no need to water too often. Don't water if the potting soil is not dry. After summer begins, water petunias in the morning and evening.

3. How can you grow a petunia into a big flower ball?

Around mid-March, you can fertilize petunias appropriately, mainly with nitrogen fertilizer. You can use urea, but be careful that the concentration is not higher than 0.2%. Once flower buds form, switch to phosphorus fertilizer, which can promote blooming.

If you want to grow petunias strong and vigorous, pinching and topping are essential. When the petunia grows to 10~15 cm, pinch off the tender tip together with 2 or 3 pairs of leaves. After side branches grow, continue pinching and topping. Repeat 3 or 4 times, and the flowers will grow into a flower ball.

Spring is almost here,

so hurry up and get started!

Grow a pot of beautiful flowers;

beautiful flowers make life more beautiful!
