Introduction
Potted green plants have become an essential decorative element of home life. Keeping some flowers and plants at home has many benefits, as they can both beautify the room and delight the mood. "Flower Voice Potted Plant Diary · Issue 1135" introduces you to a very beautiful new type of ornamental flower.
Today's Featured Plant
In the scorching summer, many plants and flowers enter dormancy to get through the intense heat, so summer flowering plants are scarce, and there are not many plants suitable for cultivation. The flower introduced in this issue is named "Lilac", a new rose cultivar of the Rosaceae family, bred in Japan in 2015. In just a few years since its release, it has spread all over the world and has gained some fame among flower enthusiasts.
Lilac
Lilac has very high ornamental value. Its flowers are double, large, about 10 cm in diameter, with neatly arranged petals, a well-formed bloom, high-centered cup shape, a typical rose flower shape, semi-high-center flowering form, and a fresh and refined blue-purple color. The lower the temperature, the deeper the color, sometimes showing purple-pink, full of fairy-like charm, so beautiful it looks like an artificial flower, making it hard to believe.
Abundant and frequent blooming
Lilac is an abundant and frequent blooming cultivar. This plant blooms repeatedly across multiple seasons. Whether spring, summer, autumn, or winter, it has flowers blooming, and a single flower can last about 10 days. It also performs very well in the hot summers of Guangdong. It blooms in multi-headed cluster mode, opening in a cluster at a time, and flowers covering the branches are very common. Unfortunately, this cultivar's flowers have no fragrance. If it also had fragrance, it would be even more perfect.
Beautiful even at first bloom
Lilac has strong disease resistance. Its plant is robust with medium growth vigor, and even small seedlings can produce standard flowers. Most flower enthusiasts report that they have not found any diseases during cultivation, which is very worry-free. It has advantages such as cold tolerance and heat tolerance. In northern regions, it may also survive winter outdoors, and in the south, it will not be killed by sun exposure in summer. It is very tough and durable, suitable for beginners to cultivate.
Worth getting
Lilac has a certain degree of shade tolerance and likes scattered light in the morning and afternoon. It is suitable for cultivation on indoor balconies. Keep one at home, and it will bloom throughout the year. Cut the flowers and put them in a vase to decorate the room, making it appear even more warm and elegant. It is also a new type of ornamental flower, and not many people grow it. It is a perennial small shrub. Cultivate it once and enjoy it for many years. It is very worth getting.
