These 4 flowers fear the heat; master the key points to help them get through 30-degree high temperatures smoothly

Many people like to place a potted plant indoors; it can decorate the home and green up the environment, and it can also soothe the mood and cultivate the character. But summer quietly arrives, and the temperature reaches above 30 degrees. People can hardly stand the heat, so what can be done about these flowers kept indoors? If no measures are taken, they can only die, especially these 4 kinds, which also fear heat. Master the key points, and get through summer smoothly!

Geranium

Geraniums have many varieties, with a wide range of flower colors, very bright and gorgeous, and they bloom in large amounts at one time, easily forming flower balls, very spectacular and beautiful. But geraniums are very afraid of high temperatures, especially in such hot summer days, so certain measures must be taken for them to get through summer safely!

When caring for geraniums in summer, be sure to pay attention to ventilation and water less. With good ventilation, air circulates quickly and the temperature drops, so do not put them in odd corners. If the house faces south, they can be placed on a north balcony. When the north and south windows are both open, ventilation will be very good, and this position can also receive sunlight without being exposed to direct sun.

Watering less does not mean not watering at all. If you do not water for one or two months, even if they are not scorched to death by the sun, they will die of thirst. So each watering can be done in the morning, and each watering should soak through; wait until the soil is completely dry before watering again!

Of course, if there is a terrace at home, they can also be placed on the terrace for care, with attention to shading. But on rainy days, they must not be rained on, otherwise the stems easily turn black and the roots rot.

Fuchsia

Fuchsia is a flowering potted plant that many people like. It blooms in large amounts at one time, and the flowers are very distinctive, delicate and lovely, making it an ideal potted plant for decorating the home. But friends who have grown fuchsia know that fuchsia dies as soon as summer comes. Many flower lovers have shared that they have already killed several pots! So as soon as summer comes, special attention is needed to get through summer smoothly!

When caring for fuchsia in summer, start from three points: control the temperature, control the amount of water (pay attention to shading), and stop fertilizing! When the temperature is above 30 degrees, fuchsia enters a dormant state, so controlling these three points is very important.

Moreover, mature fuchsia plants find it hard to get through summer, but its seedlings get through summer very easily, and propagating fuchsia by cuttings is also very simple. If you do not want your fuchsia to be completely wiped out, you can propagate some seedlings by cuttings, which are a bit easier to manage.

Christmas cactus

The flowers of the Christmas cactus are exquisite and lovely, with very diverse colors, and are quite popular. Too high a summer temperature is also unfavorable to the growth of the Christmas cactus. Especially when overwatering causes waterlogging, it easily leads to root rot in the Christmas cactus, and when the temperature is above 30 degrees, it also enters a dormant state.

When caring for the Christmas cactus in summer, these 2 aspects are very important: watering and fertilizing. The Christmas cactus is relatively drought-tolerant, so watering cannot be too frequent, and fertilizing cannot be done in the hot summer, as it more easily burns the roots and causes root rot.

Usually, the Christmas cactus can be placed at a north window, where there is light but no direct sun. At the same time, the lower temperature will keep it from entering dormancy, and with good ventilation, even if too much water is given, it evaporates quickly and root rot is not easily caused.

Gloxinia

The flowers of gloxinia are very bright and beautiful, noble and gorgeous, and it is a flowering potted plant that many people like. At the same time, its effect in accenting the home is also very strong. But as soon as summer comes, because the temperature is too high, gloxinia is also forced into dormancy.

So when caring for gloxinia in summer, lower the temperature, reduce watering frequency, and control fertilizing. In addition, it cannot be placed in a room with an air conditioner; the air humidity is low, which easily causes the leaves to turn yellow and dry up.
