How to water roses and succulents in summer? Water them randomly and you'll kill a pot with every watering

Rose

Evaporation is fairly strong in summer, so outdoor roses can be watered once every 1-2 days, and indoor ones once every 2-4 days. Although roses enter a semi-dormant period in summer, they still bloom as usual; when watering, add a little 0.1% borax aqueous solution, and the flower color will be more vivid.

Gardenia

Gardenias need plenty of water in summer, so water once a day in the early morning or evening; the water should be set out in the sun beforehand to avoid being lower than the soil temperature in the pot, which would harm the gardenia's roots.

Succulent

Summer is a tough hurdle for succulents to survive, and watering is especially key. There are many kinds of succulents, and watering frequency varies, but it is roughly once every 1-2 weeks; when watering, pour slowly along the edge of the pot, and do not soak the soil through.

Pennywort

Pennywort can be considered the "water bucket" of the flower world; toss it in water in the light and it will thrive. So in summer, it is best to use hydroponics or a half-soil, half-water setup; you just need to keep the water level in the pot steady.

Clivia

The secret to watering clivia in summer is to water little but often; water once you see the potting soil become dry, and do not soak it through every time, otherwise water easily accumulates and rots the roots.

Jasmine

Summer is the period of vigorous growth for jasmine; jasmine likes plenty of sunlight, so the potting soil evaporates fairly strongly and water needs to be replenished in time. Once you see the potting soil become dry, water it thoroughly, and it is best to choose early morning or evening for watering.

Petunia

Because evaporation is fairly strong in summer, the amount of water given to petunias should be appropriately increased, about once every 2-3 days. In summer, place petunias on a well-ventilated balcony to ensure air circulation.

Asparagus fern

The stems and leaves of asparagus fern are rather slender, and once it lacks water, the branches easily wither and the leaves turn yellow, so in summer, besides watering once every 2-5 days, you should also frequently spray water on the leaves and around the plant.

Azalea

Larger azalea plants can be watered once every 1-2 days, spraying water on the leaves and the ground around the pot every morning and evening. For smaller azaleas, water once you see the potting soil turn pale and dry.

Bougainvillea

If bougainvillea is watered too much, it easily grows leggy, with yellow leaves and no flowers, so wait until the potting soil is completely dry before watering. You can stick a disposable chopstick into the pot, and before each watering take it out to check whether the surface is dry; if it is dry, then water thoroughly.

Christmas cactus

In summer, the Christmas cactus enters dormancy, so the amount of water must be controlled; it can be watered about once every 15 days, and when watering, just go around the edge of the pot once, with no need to soak it through.

Monstera

Because summer temperatures are high and monstera's own leaves are very large, evaporation is especially strong. It is recommended to water once each in the early morning and evening, and at the same time sprinkle water on the ground to increase humidity.
