Fuchsia – The pot is full of small lanterns, it’s really beautiful

Spring is here, all kinds of beautiful flowers are blooming, and now I introduce a fuchsia that many people love.

The flowering period of Fuchsia is mainly concentrated in the three seasons of spring, autumn and winter. Except for the summer when it is dormant due to high temperature, other seasons are blooming tirelessly, and the flowering is very special. Beautiful, the clusters of flowers are like small lanterns hanging down, colorful, especially beautiful to watch at home!

Fuchsia needs to be trimmed off the remaining flowers in time after each flower fades, and the top of the fuchsia needs to be trimmed off by 3 or 5 cm, so that the buds will germinate The new side buds make the plant shape more plump and round. At the same time, prune the dead branches and yellow leaves in time.

Although Fuchsia likes a growing environment with a certain humidity, it is also afraid of waterlogging. If it is watered frequently, it is not only easy to appear The phenomenon of stagnant water and rotten roots and rotten stems. Therefore, for the maintenance of fuchsia in early spring, the watering can follow the principle of seeing dryness and seeing wetness. Usually, when the surface of the potting soil is dry, water it once in time. Try to keep the potting soil slightly moist and dry, and avoid long-term water accumulation in the pot.

Fuchsia has a very high demand for light. In spring and autumn, place flowers in a well-lit place. In summer, the outside temperature is higher than In the case of 30 degrees, it is necessary to shade and protect the sun from direct sunlight, otherwise it will burn the branches and leaves and reduce the appreciation value of the plant.

Fuchsia needs to be fertilized in spring and autumn, as well as when planting and changing soil. Nitrogen fertilizer can be used in the early spring, compound fertilizer can be used in May, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be used in autumn, and cake fertilizer or manure can be used when planting and changing soil. Fertilization can be applied once every two weeks in spring, and only twice in autumn.
