These Potted Flowers in Summer: The More You Water Them, the Faster They Die

These Potted Flowers in Summer: The More You Water Them, the Faster They Die. Don't Say I Didn't Tell You!

We all know that when growing potted flowers, water, soil and sunlight are three indispensable elements, especially water. But in our daily care routine, the amount of water we give potted flowers should be moderate and not excessive, and we need to water according to the growth habits of the potted flowers, otherwise the more you water, the faster they die! Below is a brief introduction to several kinds of potted flowers that die faster the more you water them in summer!

1. Cyclamen

Cyclamen (Cyclamen persicum) very much likes to grow in a cool and moist environment, and the temperature it prefers is between 15-20°C. When summer arrives, cyclamen begins to enter a dormant state, and at this time watering must be reduced; generally when watering, you only need to keep the soil moist to a depth of 2-3cm, otherwise too much water will cause the cyclamen to die!

2. Calla Lily

The calla lily (Zantedeschia aethiopica) is a white flower that is very beautiful when in bloom. What makes the calla lily different from other flowers is that in summer it enters a dormant state, the flowers begin to wither and the leaves begin to fall. At this time we only need to place it in a cool and ventilated spot, and wait until the pot is dry before watering; if it is not dry, absolutely do not water!

3. Clivia

Clivia (Clivia miniata) is a flower that the general public very much likes to grow in pots. In summer, clivia will slowly begin to enter a dormant state, and this is even more so when the temperature is above 30°C. At this time we need to stop fertilizing the clivia, and besides that, watering just once a week is enough!

The flowers above should not be watered too much in summer; the more you water them, the faster they die, so everyone must show some mercy!
