1. Petunia

Petunia is a perennial herbaceous plant. Its flowering period is generally rather long, blooming from April to November each year. If the indoor temperature can reach above 15°C, petunias can bloom all year round. Petunias are generally grown from seed. In autumn, the temperature and light are suitable, making it a good time to plant petunias. Choose a flower pot of appropriate size. Soak the seeds in clean water for one day, then scatter them on the surface of moist soil and cover them with a layer of fine sand. Place the pot in a cool place indoors, and in about a week you will see the petunias sprout.

If you want petunias to produce more flowers and grow vigorously, the first point is to have sufficient fertilizer, because petunias like fertile soil. Put base fertilizer at the bottom of the pot, and during the growing process, apply a compound fertilizer once a month. The second point is lighting; sufficient light can promote flower bud development. It is best to place them on a balcony. The third point is watering. Petunias like to grow in a moist environment, but you must make sure there is no water accumulation in the pot, as waterlogging easily causes flower buds to drop. Before each watering, check whether the soil is dry or moist, and water only after the soil is dry, watering thoroughly each time.

2. Kalanchoe

Kalanchoe is a flower loved by many gardening enthusiasts. On the one hand, it is because of its good symbolism, and on the other hand, it is because it is easy to grow and produces a large number of flowers. Kalanchoe blooms for more than 200 days a year. It is a very easy-to-grow indoor potted plant. It generally begins blooming in winter each year and continues until the end of the following summer. Autumn is suitable for propagating kalanchoe by cuttings. Cut a few branches and insert them into the soil, and they will basically sprout in a week.

In terms of care, kalanchoe likes fertile, moist soil. To grow kalanchoe well, fertilizing is key. When planting, you need to put base fertilizer at the bottom of the pot. Before the flowering period, apply a potassium dihydrogen phosphate aqueous solution to kalanchoe to speed up flower bud development. Kalanchoe is afraid of waterlogging, and waterlogging easily leads to root rot and leaf drop. Each time you water, it is best to check whether the soil is dry or moist, and water thoroughly only when it is completely dry. Winter is the flowering period for kalanchoe, so place the pot on a warm balcony with good light.

3. Cyclamen

Cyclamen is a world-famous flower, with bright colors and a graceful plant shape. The petals of cyclamen look very much like rabbit ears. Some people also call it: rabbit ear flower. Cyclamen blooms in autumn and winter. When planting cyclamen in autumn, it is best to use division, so that it can bloom in winter.

In terms of plant care, cyclamen likes fertile, loose soil. Choose a substrate mixed with garden soil, leaf mold, and sand. After planting the cyclamen, place it in a ventilated place for a week to settle in. Apply a potassium dihydrogen phosphate aqueous solution to the plant once a week. This speeds up plant growth and promotes flower bud development. Place the pot in a place with sufficient light, so that cyclamen can produce large, brightly colored flowers.

4. Bougainvillea

Bougainvillea is a very beautiful woody flower. For propagating bougainvillea in autumn, cuttings are suitable. Cut a few branches and insert them into a pot, and they will easily take root and sprout. Insert the cuttings into sandy soil, and they will basically take root and sprout in a week.

Bougainvillea is very easy to care for and is not picky about its growing environment. If you want bougainvillea to produce more flowers, you need to give it sufficient light and sufficient water and fertilizer. Each watering should be thorough, and place it outdoors in a sunny spot; in summer, provide shade to prevent sunburn damage to the flowers. For fertilizer, choose mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. In addition, there is a little trick: before the summer flowering period each year, give bougainvillea a fixed amount of light time every day - six hours. Cover it with a cardboard box the rest of the time, and after about three weeks, the plant will be covered with flowers. Then place it under scattered light for normal care, and it can produce very dense flowers.
