It is said that one autumn rain brings one spell of cold; as autumn sets in, the weather slowly begins to turn cool, fallen leaves are everywhere, giving a feeling of loneliness, but there are always some flowers and plants that like to bloom in autumn and winter. Today Huar will introduce 3 kinds to everyone, with a particularly long flowering period, blooming from autumn to spring, so you will not be short of flowers to admire, and they are worth getting!
1. Crab claw orchid
Crab claw orchid (Schlumbergera truncata) is a flower that many flower lovers particularly like, shrub-like, with branched stems and no thorns, flowers borne singly at the tips of the branches, and a particularly long flowering period, blooming from autumn to spring.
Crab claw orchid is a relatively easy flower to grow, with low light requirements, and can be kept indoors or outdoors. When it enters the flowering period, keep sufficient fertilizer and water; when the potting soil turns white, water thoroughly; you can spray some water on the stems to increase humidity; apply some diluted liquid fertilizer about every 7 days, mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer.
2. Anthurium
Anthurium has a unique flower shape and brilliant colors; the pairing of red and green is very beautiful, and its single flowering period is particularly long, reaching 4-6 months. Placed indoors, it also has an air-purifying effect, able to absorb formaldehyde, acetone, etc.
Anthurium likes scattered light. After autumn begins, you can move it to a place near the windowsill to increase light. Rotate the flowerpot once every ten days so the plant receives light evenly, which helps promote a full crown shape and increases its ornamental value.
Fertilizer and water should be appropriate, keeping it moist but not wet. Apply diluted liquid fertilizer 2-3 times each month; you can use fermented rice-washing water, fish intestine water, etc.
3. Kalanchoe
Kalanchoe (Kalanchoe blossfeldiana) is small and delicate, with thick and juicy leaves, a very long flowering period, and particularly rich flower colors. The flowers bloom in clusters and are especially beautiful, and it is often used as a "holiday flower".
Kalanchoe is a short-day flower. After it enters the flowering period, you can give it dark treatment, keeping 9 hours of light each day and letting it be completely in a dark environment the rest of the time, until it blooms. This can encourage kalanchoe to bloom more brightly colored flowers.
