When the weather gets hot, these 8 flowers will grow more and more luxuriantly as long as you water them correctly
Although it is still May, friends in the south have long since entered summer. Summer temperatures are high and evaporation is vigorous, so watering flowers has become the most important task for flower lovers. Today, Huahua introduces several flowers that especially love water. In summer you must give them plenty of water. Come and see if you have any of them at home?
Monstera (Swiss cheese plant)
Complete Guide to Flower Growing
Monstera especially loves a humid environment. In high summer temperatures, it is best to water once in the morning and once in the evening. In addition, Monstera has large leaves and evaporates vigorously, so you can often spray the leaf surface, or sprinkle water around the plant.
Gardenia
Complete Guide to Flower Growing
Summer is the peak growing season for gardenia, and its water demand is also relatively large. You can water thoroughly once in the early morning or evening, but be careful not to let water accumulate. About every 5 days, add a little citric acid and ferrous sulfate to the water when watering, which can make the gardenia leaves more bright and glossy.
Mint
Complete Guide to Flower Growing
Summer is the peak growing season for mint, and its water demand is especially large. It is best to water once a day to keep the soil moist. In a dry environment, mint leaves tend to turn yellow.
Peperomia (baby rubber plant)
Complete Guide to Flower Growing
When the summer temperature approaches 30 degrees, water once in the early morning or evening. When lacking water, Peperomia leaves tend to lose their luster. When planting Peperomia, choose soil with good air and water permeability to avoid water accumulation.
Inchplant (tradescantia zebrina)
Complete Guide to Flower Growing
Inchplant especially loves a humid environment. In hot seasons, it needs to be watered once a day. In particularly hot weather, you can sprinkle water around the plant to maintain air humidity. A dry environment easily causes the leaf edges of inchplant to scorch and dry up, or even the plant to wither.
Cast iron plant
Complete Guide to Flower Growing
During the growing season, give the cast iron plant plenty of water. When the potting soil is dry, water it thoroughly, and often spray the leaf surface and sprinkle water around it to maintain air humidity. In addition, apply a dilute liquid fertilizer once a month, which helps the leaves become more robust and glossy.
Iris
Complete Guide to Flower Growing
In the wild, iris often grows beside ditches, which shows how much it loves water. In high summer temperatures, once you find the potting soil has become dry, water it thoroughly immediately and often spray the leaf surface. This not only maintains air humidity but also keeps iris leaves emerald green and glossy, enhancing their ornamental value.
Maidenhair fern
Complete Guide to Flower Growing
Maidenhair fern also loves water very much and can be watered once a day. In high summer temperatures, you can mist the leaf surface, which not only increases air humidity but also stimulates the growth of maidenhair fern and keeps the leaves clear and bright.
