Epiphyllum has flower bones. How many days can it bloom?

Epiphyllum is called "beauty under the moon" because it opens at night, and it is called "a flash in the pan" because it opens for a very short time. Epiphyllum takes about two or three weeks from the appearance of flower bones to flowering.

This is definitely not a fixed time. When you find it in bud and the bud is about to bloom, it will probably be these two days.

The flowering period of epiphyllum is generally from June to 65438+ 10, and the flowering time is generally after 9 pm, and the flowering time is generally about 4 hours. This time is very short. Generally, when the buds of epiphyllum are facing up and the stems are hooked, you can prepare to stay up late at night to watch epiphyllum. But there are also some flower friends who can't keep epiphyllum at home. Why? Xiao will also talk about it!

Generally speaking, it takes only two to three years from cutting epiphyllum to flowering, and it may be because of light, nutrients or water control that it does not bloom. Let's introduce it in detail below!

First of all, light

Epiphyllum will not bloom normally, whether it is insufficient light or exposure. Epiphyllum likes half yin, but not all yin. It is best to put epiphyllum indoors where it can receive light. Summer balcony maintenance must be shaded.

Second, water.

Epiphyllum likes humidity. Pay attention to keep the soil moist when watering, but be careful not to cause water accumulation, otherwise the roots will rot easily. Pay attention to keep ventilation, and decide to water according to the actual dry and wet conditions of the basin soil. Generally, the soil can be watered when it is dry.

Third, nutrients

Insufficient nutrients, or mainly applying phosphate fertilizer at flowering stage, will cause epiphyllum not to bloom normally, and epiphyllum likes fertilizer. We can apply nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizer or microbial agent flower fertilizer in the growth period, which is also a good fertilizer, which can prolong the flowering period and improve the soil, and is also very suitable for application in the epiphyllum growth period. Phosphate fertilizer is the main fertilizer before flowering to promote big and bright flowers!

A flash in the pan is short-lived. Once you find a flower, you should observe it in time. Don't miss it when it opens.
