These 10 flowers that everyone raves about are actually so hard to grow - the more you grow them, the more frustrating it gets
Flower lovers follow Huahua to learn about growing flowers every day, and they always say "easy to learn at a glance, useless once you try". Are flowers really easy to grow? Today let's take a look at the 10 flowers that gardeners complain about most as "impossibly hard to grow". If you can keep half of them alive, you can call yourself a "pro"!
NO.10 Pothos
On average, hundreds of flower lovers come asking for help every day - pothos has run into problems yet again. Changes in humidity, temperature and light all affect its growth. If you can get it to grow tough and sturdy, then you won't have to worry anymore.
NO.8 Rose
If we're talking about which flower is the most popular this year, it has to be the rose. Grow one on a balcony or indoors and you get a whole pile of problems. Never mind whether it blooms or not - once it gets infested with bugs, no treatment ever fully works, and it can spread to every flower on the whole balcony!
NO.8 Succulents
Countless succulents die every summer, but that still can't stop everyone's enthusiasm for buying them. Growing succulents takes skill, but even more than that, it takes luck - who knows when one will drop its leaves and turn ugly~
NO.7 Gardenia
Gardenia flowers bloom and bloom~ Every time I come across someone selling gardenias I just can't walk past. Nowadays you can buy a pot for ten yuan, but once you take it home the buds drop right off, and before you've even smelled the fragrance a few times, it's dead!
NO.6 Orchid
Orchids are the "white moonlight" in the hearts of us flower growers - noble and beautiful. Think you can grow one that's fresh and refined? Impossible. Other people's are exquisite orchids; ours turn into big scallions as soon as we grow them!
NO.5 Phalaenopsis
Don't be fooled by phalaenopsis blooms that look like plastic flowers - it's actually delicate and dainty. If you don't mist and keep it moist properly at home, it'll up and die on you right away. It also hates the cold; a slight chill and there's no bringing it back. Such an expensive flower - growing it is exhausting~
NO.4 Money Tree
Even people who don't like growing flowers have kept a money tree. So far Huahua has never heard of one being kept for more than 5 years. Nine out of ten money trees die from overwatering - if you can't control your hands, no matter how many you buy, it's all for nothing!
NO.3 Kumquat
The little kumquat you have to buy every Chinese New Year - has it ever lived past 2 months? An off-season, high-hormone product - if you can grow it well, you're truly a master among masters!
NO.2 Azalea
Don't be fooled by azaleas covering entire hillsides - bring one home and it dies. It's not your fault: azaleas love slightly acidic soil, while household water is generally on the alkaline side. As you water, the potting soil becomes alkaline, so of course it dies!
NO.1 Camellia
If the camellia ranks first, no flower can rank second. Soil that isn't sticky enough kills it; soil too sticky and airless kills it; water it a bit too much and it dies; water it too little and it dies too... By the time you notice it dropping leaves like crazy, there's basically no saving it~
