Beginner's question: How many days can the flowers of Chlorophytum be in bloom?

Chlorophytum usually withers about one day after flowering, which is normal.

Chlorophytum is a perennial herb with basal leaves, strip-shaped to strip-lanceolate, long and narrow, and flexible as blue. The biggest feature of chlorophytum is that mature plants will emerge from time to time, with white flowers, usually 2-4 in clusters, arranged in evacuated racemes or panicles. The flowering period is May. If you take good care of it, new flowers will bloom every day.

Chlorophytum likes warm, humid and semi-cloudy environment. Strong adaptability, drought tolerance, not cold tolerance. It grows better in loose and fertile sandy soil with good drainage, which has nothing to do with the soil. The requirements for light are not strict, and it is generally suitable for growing under medium light conditions and is also resistant to weak light.

The optimum growth temperature is 15-25℃, and the overwintering temperature is 5℃. When the growth is stopped above 30℃, the leaves often turn yellow and dry. When the room temperature is kept above 12℃ in winter, the plants can grow normally and the leaves can open. Low temperature, slow growth or dormancy; When the temperature is lower than 5℃, chilling injury is easy to occur.
