No matter how cheap these 2 kinds of flowers are at the flower market, don't buy them; they will wither and die as soon as you get them home

Potted flowers have already become part of flower lovers' lives and are common flowers in the home. They can make people feel happy, and it is also very nice for people to grow a few plants and flowers. However, flower lovers must pay attention when going to the flower market. When buying flowers, they need to look at several shops to avoid taking flowers home only for them to wither and die. For the 2 common kinds of flowers, no matter how cheap the price is, do not buy them, so as to avoid the flowers withering and dying as soon as they are taken home.

Flowers sprayed with brightening agents

Foliage plants generally have lush green leaves. If the leaves of a flower turn yellow or are dull and lusterless, no one who sees it will buy it and take it home. If common green plants show yellow leaves, some monopotassium phosphate can be sprayed, but many vendors use "brightening agents," called "brightening agents" in the trade. Although they can make the leaves more glossy and may look better for a short time, over time the respiration of the leaves may be blocked, and the leaves may gradually develop rotten holes.

When buying flowers, you can touch some of the plant's leaves with your hand to check whether there is oil or grease, and then you can also check the degree of glossiness of the leaves. For common pothos, spider plant, money tree and clivia, if the leaves do not reflect light, or if the leaves are glossy like this but the bottom of the potted plant is dull, it may have been sprayed with a brightening agent. If the leaves have been sprayed with a brightening agent, then it should not be taken home to grow.

Potted flowers that have just had their soil changed

When buying flowers, pay attention to flowers that have just had their nutrient soil changed. Do not buy them and take them home easily, so as to avoid the flowers rotting at the roots. If the pot soil has just been changed, the original soil may have been compacted, and then it is repotted to be sold as a new flower, which may cause the flowers to develop yellow leaves and drop blossoms after being bought home. Therefore, it is generally not recommended to buy flowers with new soil, so as to avoid them being potted plants made from flowers with rotted roots.

Flower lovers now have a certain understanding of what to pay attention to when growing flowers on the market. Once some flowers with added brightening agents or with freshly changed pot soil are bought and taken home, they may develop yellow leaves or wither and die. This needs to be avoided when buying, and attention should be paid to waiting 2 months to "change the pot and change the soil." Also, note that repotting in spring and autumn can help the flowers grow better.
