Flower lovers always ask: Why do potted plants gradually wither after they bloom? In fact, there are many potted flowers that will wither after blooming and will not bloom again. These potted flowers are also called "disposable flowers". The following 8 common flowers are all "disposable". You can throw them away after blooming, so there is no need to waste your feelings.
1, six times profit
six times profit is a veritable weapon for making money. When it blooms, you can see the flowers but not the leaves, so it is loved by many florists. Liubili is suitable for sowing in autumn. After a season of maintenance in autumn and winter, the plant shape will be full in spring and the pot will burst into bloom at once.
However, after a large number of blooms, the leaves of the six times will gradually appear yellow, and they will wither completely after summer. Because the six times itself is a one- or two-year-old herbaceous flower , so if you don’t want to harvest the seeds, you can just throw them away when the six times bloom and fail.
2, Gypsy baby's breath
Gypsy baby's breath is also called garden bride's baby's breath. Although the flowers are small, the number of flowers is very large. During the flowering period, there are countless flowers densely packed. The gypsophila plant is small and suitable for potted viewing. However, after flowering, the condition of the gypsophila will become worse and worse. This is not a problem of maintenance, but the natural growth pattern of the gypsophila.
However, Gypsophila has better self-sowing ability. If it can be maintained for a period of time after flowering to allow the seeds to mature, the seeds will germinate on their own when they fall into the flower pot.
3, Cineraria
Cineraria is one of the common New Year flowers . It blooms neatly and has rich colors. It is very suitable for viewing as potted plants on the balcony. But cineraria is also a biennial flower that will gradually wither after flowering.
Although the seeds of cineraria can also be harvested, it is more difficult. It is recommended to throw them away after the cineraria has failed to avoid wasting energy.
4, Hyacinth
Hyacinthus is the best bulb to grow. There is no other one. Just give it a little water and it will bloom a bunch of flowers. It is one of the flowers that novice flower lovers must grow in winter.
Because the bulbs of hyacinths will degenerate, and flowering consumes a lot of money, the bulbs often become smaller after flowering, and the repeated flowers in the second year will also be very small, losing their ornamental value. Therefore, it is recommended to discard the hyacinths directly after they bloom.
5, Phlox
There are many varieties of Phlox , some are ratoons, and some are one or two years old. If we raise phlox that is one or two years old, then after the flowers bloom and fail, the phlox will grow seeds and then gradually wither.
Phlox has a very high seed setting rate and good self-sowing ability. If you want to save seeds, you can maintain them for a period of time after flowering, and then discard the old plants after the seeds are mature and harvested.
6, Pansy
Pansy and Pansy have a flowering period from autumn to summer, and they are very worth raising flower varieties. However, pansies and pansies will gradually wither after flowering and will not survive the summer, so they can be thrown away after blooming.
7, Zhangzhou Narcissus
Zhangzhou Narcissus is very famous. It can bloom in hydroponics, but it is difficult to bloom again, so we treat Zhangzhou Narcissus as a one-time flower and throw it away after blooming.
8, Good Luck Head
Good Luck Head has a very good meaning and is also very beautiful. The flowering period can last for three or four roses, so many florists like to keep them. However, after the flowers of the Good Luck Head bloom and fail, it is difficult to bloom again, and the maintenance is relatively difficult. It is generally recommended that the flowers be discarded directly.
