These 4 flowers fear the cold the most; move them indoors as soon as it turns cold, or their leaves will all drop off
Family Flower Growing Guide
Teacher Xiaoye teaches you all kinds of flower-growing knowledge!
The temperature has dropped sharply these past few days, and in many regions the temperature is below 10°C. With such a big temperature swing, this is a huge test for flowers and green plants that are not cold-tolerant. If you don't move them indoors for care right away, be careful - the leaves of your flowers may all drop off!
NO.1 Pothos fears the cold the most; it wilts completely when it meets cold air!
Pothos is a relatively easy-to-keep green plant, but if the temperature is too low it is very prone to frost damage or yellow leaves. Below 5°C, it can easily freeze to death. In this weather, you must promptly move pothos indoors for care!
Care tips:
1. When the temperature is below 10°C, you must promptly control watering. It is recommended to water once every 7-10 days, and water at noon. Temperatures in the morning and evening are lower, which can easily frost-damage the roots!
2. In late autumn, it is recommended to place pothos on a south-facing balcony for care and let it get as much sun as possible. When light increases, photosynthesis speeds up, and pothos will definitely grow faster and faster!
3. When the temperature is below 15°C, do not keep the windows open for a long time. Pothos fears cold wind, and when it meets cold wind its leaves can easily be frost-damaged, causing wilting and yellow leaves!
NO.2 As soon as snake plant meets the cold, all its leaves flop down!
Snake plant is a type of green plant that many flower lovers like to grow. It is very easy to care for, but its characteristic is that it is not cold-tolerant. In late autumn, you must do a good job with care in terms of room temperature, watering and light!
Care tips:
1. When the temperature is below 10°C, watering once or twice every 1 month is enough. When it is below 5°C, you must promptly stop watering!
2. Snake plant leaves fear the cold very much. When the temperature is below 5°C, move it indoors for care. If the indoor temperature cannot reach 5°C, it is recommended to put a plastic bag over the snake plant!
3. When the temperature is below 10°C, the snake plant's ability to absorb fertilizer becomes rather poor. At this time, it is recommended not to fertilize, otherwise fertilizer damage will occur!
NO.3 Lucky bamboo has poor cold tolerance; when it turns cold, its leaves turn yellow!
When the temperature is below 13°C, lucky bamboo is prone to yellow leaves. Below 10°C, lucky bamboo is prone to frost damage. So when the temperature is below 13°C, you must promptly take care measures!
Care tips:
1. Compared with water-cultured lucky bamboo, soil-cultured lucky bamboo has somewhat stronger cold tolerance. If flower lovers in the south have no heating at home in winter, they can switch water-cultured lucky bamboo to soil culture. This way, lucky bamboo is more likely to get through the winter!
2. If it is water-cultured lucky bamboo, flower lovers can cut up cotton-padded clothes or sweaters they no longer wear and wrap them around the bottle of the lucky bamboo. This has a warming effect!
3. When the indoor temperature is below 15°C, do not buy lucky bamboo anymore, because when the temperature is below 15°C, the roots of lucky bamboo enter a dormant state, are not easy to root, and do not easily absorb water and nutrients, which is very unfavorable for getting it through the winter!
NO.4 Copper coin grass is not frost-resistant; when it turns cold, it easily dies!
Copper coin grass has very poor drought tolerance. When the temperature is below 10°C, its leaves will turn yellow and wilt. When the temperature is below 5°C, it is prone to dying off in large areas! So you must promptly protect copper coin grass!
1. If flower lovers are growing copper coin grass outdoors, then at this time it should be moved indoors for care. At night, the temperature is low and the temperature difference is large, and the roots of copper coin grass can easily be frost-damaged!
2. In late autumn, it is recommended to switch copper coin grass to a care method with mixed soil and half water, let it get as much sun as possible, and shelter it from wind, to improve its cold tolerance!
3. If the temperature is below 5°C, it is recommended to give copper coin grass a close cut. This can reduce water evaporation in the copper coin grass, reduce the amount of watering, and keep the soil slightly moist!
The weather is gradually getting colder. While adding clothes for yourself, you should also take anti-freeze measures for your flowers. In winter, flowers have poor cold resistance and stress resistance. If care is even slightly inadequate, pests and diseases can easily appear. Xiaoye recommends that everyone apply 20g of microbial inoculant to flowers in this season, to fight pests and diseases, improve the reversible resistance of flowers, and let flowers get through the winter steadily!
