Grow these 6 flowers in summer, and the more you water them, the faster they die
Most people think that in summer, when temperatures are high, plants lose water quickly, so when caring for the flowers and plants at home, you must never let them go short of water, otherwise the leaves will wilt and dry up before you know it. But there are some flowers that, when cared for in summer, need their water controlled, and you must never overwater them, otherwise they will very easily up and die on you, especially the following:
Kalanchoe blossfeldiana (florist's kalanchoe):
Kalanchoe blossfeldiana is itself a drought-tolerant variety, and after summer arrives, when the temperature exceeds 30°C it will enter a semi-dormant state. At this time you must place the kalanchoe in a spot with diffused light for care, not in blazing sun, and control watering; generally watering once every 1-2 weeks is enough.
Clivia miniata (Natal lily)
Likewise, Clivia miniata also enters a semi-dormant period in summer when the temperature exceeds 30°C. Place it in a cool, ventilated spot for care. When the temperature is too high you can spray its leaves with water to increase air humidity. Watering in the pot is generally once a week, and during the dormant period, when caring for Clivia miniata you must stop fertilizing.
Schlumbergera (Christmas cactus)
When the temperature exceeds 25°C, the Christmas cactus enters a dormant state, so no blazing sun; place it in a semi-shaded, well-ventilated spot for care, and watering once or twice a month is enough.
Pelargonium (geranium)
As a flowering machine that is not afraid of freezing, the geranium is, by contrast, quite afraid of heat. When the temperature exceeds 30°C the geranium also enters a semi-dormant state. For potted plants, be careful to move them to a ventilated spot with diffused light for care, and give them appropriate pruning. Water only after you see the potting soil turn pale, to avoid waterlogging causing root rot. When watering, be careful to try not to get it on the leaves.
Begonia × hiemalis (Rieger begonia)
At this time of year the Rieger begonia is still blooming quite beautifully, but when summer arrives and the high temperature goes above 30°C it will enter a dormant period. At this point we need to prune off the spent flowers and move it to a cool, ventilated spot for care. Water only after you see the potting soil has dried, and do not water onto the leaves, otherwise they will very easily rot.
Fuchsia (lady's eardrops)
Fuchsia is a very popular potted flower, but it is very easy to lose when getting through the summer, mainly because when the temperature exceeds 30°C fuchsia stops growing, and when the temperature is above 35°C it very easily dies. It is afraid of heat and likes a somewhat cool, ventilated environment. When caring for it in summer, reduce watering so the potting soil stays on the dry side, but you need to spray the leaves with water every day to increase air humidity for it to get through the summer safely.
The above 6 are all very common seasonal flowers at this time of year. After summer arrives, when caring for them everyone must get the watering amount right and provide proper shade, to avoid blazing sun.
