Don't give these three flowers away casually, and don't throw them out either. As long as they haven't withered, care for them well. The longer you keep them, the more valuable they become.
These days, when it comes to giving gifts, people don't know what to choose. Of course, for plant lovers, if the relationship is close and you want to show a bit of originality, just buying something random won't do. So during holidays and festivals, besides food, is there really only food? Nowadays, giving flowers is gradually becoming popular, not just bouquets but also potted flowers. However, Yatou wants to remind you: if you have these three kinds of flowers at home, don't give them away casually, even if they're temporarily in poor condition, don't do it!
Masson pine
This is one of the pine tree varieties. You've probably seen large ones along the roadside. A small seedling is certainly not worth much, but if you grow it for a long time and it gets older, it becomes quite valuable!
Care tips: Masson pine is mainly grown for its foliage and form. Adequate sunlight is essential, and the more sunlight it gets, the thicker the branches and trunk become, and the leaves are tender and bright! In spring and autumn, supplement with some nitrogen fertilizer to promote growth. The principle for watering is small amounts but frequently, until thoroughly watered.
Ginkgo bonsai
There should be very few people growing this at home. They're basically planted along roadsides as landscaping trees, so moving one into the home makes it seem even more precious. Even though it's just a small one, the ginkgo leaves have great ornamental value.
Care tips: Ginkgo is a plant that loves light very much. As a potted plant, it's best placed in a sunny spot, and you must ensure air circulation. Ginkgo prefers a relatively humid environment. In summer, water every morning and evening; in autumn and winter, reduce the amount of watering. Just make sure the pot has enough water.
Plum blossom
Plum blossoms have been a flower of elegance since ancient times, and they're perfect for giving to elders. If you have a pot at home, you must treasure it and care for it well.
Care methods: Plum blossoms only enter their growing season in winter, so they need more sunlight to store nutrients. Therefore, the care location must ensure adequate sunlight, otherwise the number of blooms will decrease and the ornamental value will be lowered.
