Growth habits of freesia
Freesia prefers a cool, humid environment with plenty of sunlight. It is not cold-tolerant, and the most suitable temperature for growth is 15-20°C. The minimum winter temperature is 3-5°C. Increasing the temperature difference between day and night is beneficial to the plant's growth and development.
It is suitable for growing in loose, well-drained soil rich in humus.
Freesia corms can take root and sprout relatively quickly at a temperature of 13.5°C-15°C. During the flower bud differentiation stage, the temperature should be maintained at 8°C-13°C. During flower bud development, the temperature should be maintained at 13°C-18°C. If the temperature is lower than 18°C, flowering will be delayed and the flower stems will be shortened.
Freesia is a short-day plant, and short light exposure can promote flower bud differentiation. After flower bud differentiation, appropriately increasing the duration of sunlight can promote earlier flowering.
