The iron lotus is fragrant and brightly colored. How to raise them in dog days to blossom more?

Clematis, also known as Clematis, is a vine flower, and its flowering period is from June to August in summer, which is the hottest dog days. Moreover, the flowers of clematis have obvious fragrance, elegant and charming colors, or colorful. It can be planted on the wall, in front of the window or in the style of the balcony, giving people a feeling of flowers and branches. How can we raise clematis in dog days to make it full of flowers? As long as you do the following four things, you can do it.

First, get more sunshine. Clematis likes warm sunshine and is afraid of strong sunshine in summer. During the vigorous growth period in spring and autumn, it is necessary to maintain sufficient sunshine, which is conducive to its growth and flowering.

Sunshade suggestion: After entering June, the sun becomes stronger, so it is necessary to do sunshade treatment at noon when the sun is strong, and other times are sunny. Adequate illumination for more than 6 hours every day is beneficial to the growth and flowering of clematis, although it is prone to sunburn of stems and leaves.

But as long as the stems are wet and not exposed to the sun, fresh leaves will grow on the stems in autumn, and the vitality of clematis is still very strong.

Second, don't water too much. Clematis likes humid environment and is afraid of stagnant water. If there is water in the flowerpot for a long time, it is easy to have water and rotten roots. So be sure to pay attention to watering.

Watering suggestion: It is humid and sultry in dog days, so it is necessary to pay attention to watering clematis to prevent root rot. We can make the clematis soil moist, that is, water it once after the soil turns white, but don't let the water accumulate in the flowerpot.

When the weather is dry, you should always spray water around the flowerpot and on the leaves, which can increase the air humidity and prevent the stems and leaves of clematis from turning yellow or dry. Be careful not to spray on the flowers to prevent them from rotting. Ventilate after spraying water to prevent clematis from rotting roots due to high temperature and high air humidity.

It is prone to rainy weather in dog days, so it is necessary to take measures to avoid rain in time to prevent excessive water accumulation in the soil and lead to root rot of clematis.

Thirdly, it should be noted that clematis is a fertilizer-loving flower with many flowers and long growth time. If there is a lack of fertilizer, it will grow poorly and bloom less. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be applied before flowering to promote flowering. How to fertilize in dog days?

Fertilization suggestion: In dog days, although it belongs to the flowering period of clematis, the growth state is not very good because of high temperature and strong sunshine. Clematis don't need to be fertilized, but can be sprayed with compound fertilizer of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium every 7 ~ 10 days, and it should be thinner, which can reduce the probability of chemical fertilizer damage to Clematis.

Fourthly, when pruning clematis after flowering, it is necessary to prune clematis properly, mainly to make it grow more new branches and then bloom again, so the pruning period is very important for clematis.

Pruning suggestion: We can prune the clematis after flowering, mainly to cut off the residual flowers. When pruning residual flowers, we can cut off the branches under the flowers, as long as we don't cut the lignified branches.

In addition, we have to cut off the overgrown branches and withered branches, which can play a role in ventilation and light transmission, make clematis more ventilated and light-transmitting, and re-open more and more beautiful flowers.

Clematis is also known as the "vine queen" because it belongs to vines with bright flowers and a large amount of flowers. We raise clematis in dog days. As long as there is enough sunshine for six hours every day, water it once after it suddenly turns white, often spray water around leaves and flowerpots, make good ventilation, spray a thin ternary fertilizer of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium every 7 to 10 days, and prune it after flowering, so that clematis can bloom more and more brightly, and it can also bloom one after another.
