Clivia has some "snacks" buried in the pot. The leaves look like fans and the flowers are red and generous!
Although Clivia also has a blue color, it is not an orchid . It is a Amaryllidaceae , a perennial herbaceous plant, also called Clivia grandiflorum. Its leaves are wide and dark green, and they are evergreen all year round. If they are neat and symmetrical, they will taste great. If the appearance is very high, the price will be relatively expensive. The colors of the flowers include red, green, yellow, etc. They are tall and beautiful, with a sense of sudden openness.
When the temperature is high, the Clivia will be forced to enter the dormant period. After the temperature drops, the Clivia will slowly start to grow and enter the flowering stage. If at this time, the Clivia does not grow well and the leaves are dull, remember to bury some in the flower pot. Snacks, this piece of green all year round, like a big fan, will bloom early.
The first type, bone meal
Bone meal is a kind of organic fertilizer often used when growing flowers. We must always use organic fertilizer when growing Clivia, because organic fertilizer can change the structure of the soil, prevent soil compaction and make the soil soft and fertile. The leaves of the Clivia grown in this way are neat and symmetrical, and the flowers are big, red, and super beautiful.
After the weather cools down, you can bury some bone meal around the flower pot. Bone meal is rich in phosphorus. When buried in the flower soil, it can absorb nutrients through the flower roots, promote growth and flowering.
The second type is egg yolk
We usually eat eggs. Eggs are a food with super rich nutritional value. They can replenish energy for the human body and improve human immunity. In particular, egg yolks have higher nutritional value and are beneficial to human health. Very helpful.
Egg yolks also have a great effect on plants. They can decompose a large amount of phosphorus and promote flowering. If you don’t like to eat egg yolks, you can crush the egg yolks and crush some of them around the flower roots. Dig a hole and bury it, cover it with soil, and the nutrients will be released continuously every time you water it. It's super easy to use.
The third type, soybean grains
Not only do people like to eat soybeans, some plants also like to eat soybeans, such as Clivia. If you want the leaves of Clivia to be neat, beautiful, generous, and bright in color, you can often use soybeans.
After simple processing, soybeans can decompose a large amount of nitrogen element , which is equivalent to the nitrogen fertilizer we usually buy, which can be absorbed by flowers and plants by being buried in flower soil.
Of course, you cannot bury the soybeans directly in the flower soil. You need to boil the soybeans, crush a few soybeans, dig a hole around the flowers, bury the soybeans, and then cover the soil, so that the nutrients will be released continuously. You can use chemical fertilizers. Works well.
At this time, there is one more thing you can do to raise Clivia, because the temperature is generally lower now. If the soil structure of Clivia is not very good, very hard, and it is difficult to absorb water or nutrients, it will be detrimental to the growth of the flower roots. , it is also prone to root rot, so you can repot the Clivia as early as possible so that it can adapt to the environment more quickly, so that it can bloom early.
