After 10 years of flower cultivation, I found 8 kinds of flowers that are "super sunresistant" and can "bloom" even at 40℃
The dog days of summer are the hottest time of the year. During these hot dog days, the temperature often exceeds 40 degrees, causing many flowers and plants to be listless and look particularly listless. This is just like the succulents, Clivia, Phalaenopsis, etc. that we raise.
But there are some flowers that are super sun-resistant, like the 8 kinds of flowers raised by Sister Rong. These are the eight kinds of flowers that are super sun-resistant that she has raised in the past ten years of flower farming. Even in a high temperature of 40 degrees, they can "bloom in the pot", and they bloom one after another!
1. Geranium
When the hot summer comes, especially when the temperature exceeds 40 degrees, many flower lovers' geraniums will not bloom because geraniums are afraid of hot summers and prefer warm environments.
The geraniums that Ke Rong raises are the native geraniums, which are the classic red ones. This kind of geranium has strong heat resistance and can bloom even if the temperature exceeds 40 degrees.
When it is hot in summer, you need to keep geraniums in the south balcony and avoid strong sunlight. It also needs good ventilation to prevent high temperature and humidity. Watering also needs to be kept up, once every 1 to 2 days, in the morning or evening.
You also need to use potassium dihydrogen phosphate on geraniums. Using 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate once every 7 to 10 days can make geraniums bloom.
2. Lotus
When it comes to flowers that are super sun-resistant in summer, we have to mention lotus, because lotus particularly likes sunlight, and if there is less sunlight, it is easy to bloom, reduce or not bloom.
On the contrary, if there is sufficient sunlight, many lotus flowers will bloom and the colors will be brighter. As an ancient poem says, " The lotus flowers are especially red in the sun ", which is exactly what it means.
My lotus is kept in a water tank in a sunny place in the yard. In order to prevent mosquitoes from appearing in the water, I also raised a few small fish in it.
In addition, the water in it can also be used to water other flowers, because after the water is left for a period of time, it will become soft water, which is conducive to the growth of other flowers and plants.
3. Bougainvillea
The bougainvillea in Rong's home blooms from spring to summer. Even when the temperature reaches 40 degrees, it continues to bloom.
Because bougainvillea is a kind of flower that is particularly resistant to sunlight and high temperatures, and the more it is exposed to sunlight, the more it blooms. Sister Rong's bougainvillea is grown in my small yard, where it can receive 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight every day.
Because bougainvillea is always in bloom and is grown outdoors, it needs more water. I usually water it once every morning or evening. When there are few bougainvillea flowers, you can spray it with 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate every 7 to 10 days to make it bloom again.
4. Jasmine
After entering June, Sister Rong's jasmine flowers have continued to bloom. Although the temperature exceeds 40 degrees, the jasmine flowers are not afraid of the sun or high temperatures, and can continue to bloom.
When talking about jasmine's resistance to sunlight, we have to mention a flower-growing proverb: " Jasmine cannot be killed by sunlight, and orchid cannot be killed by shade." In other words, jasmine is particularly sun-resistant and is not afraid of high temperatures above 40 degrees.
In addition, after the jasmine flowers bloom, leave the two piles of leaves below and cut off all the leaves above. Then use nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium three-element fertilizer to make the jasmine grow new branches and bloom, because the flowers of jasmine are on the newly grown branches.
5. Rain orchid
When the weather is hot, Sister Rong's Zephyranthes will bloom continuously. Because there are always winds and rains in summer, it will always bloom beautiful flowers after the wind and rain, which is also the origin of its name.
Zephyranthes is a flower that is particularly resistant to sunlight and high temperatures. Even when the temperature reaches above 40 degrees, it will continue to grow and bloom, and it is easy for it to produce an effect of blooming flowers.
When Sister Rong grows Zephyranthes, she waters it every 3 to 5 days or so, so that the soil can dry out completely. Then she waters it thoroughly to create a feeling of impending storm, so that it can bloom in full bloom.
6. Chlorophytum comosum
Sister Rong has been raising Chlorophytum comosum for more than ten years. Every summer, it blooms in full bloom. Although it is a succulent plant, it is not afraid of the sun, loves to bloom, and can easily bloom out of the pot.
Chlorophytum comosum is a succulent plant of the Aizoaceae family. Its stems and leaves are fleshy, and it can be said that a lot of water is accumulated inside, so it is also relatively drought-resistant.
However, when the temperature is around 40 degrees in the hot summer, it is also necessary to water it frequently, generally once every 1 to 2 days, otherwise the leaves will easily dry out.
7. Sunflower
Sister Rong has two kinds of sunflowers at home. One is a perennial sunflower, but this kind of sunflower has single petals. The flowers are large and bright, and are rose-red or pink.
The other type is the common sunflower. This type of sunflower does not need to be taken care of. Many of them will grow in the flowerpot every year and bloom with many beautiful flowers of different colors, both single and double petals.
I have a lot of sunflowers at home, all of which grow in pots of flowers and plants, so when I water other flowers and plants, they can absorb water by the way. As long as they are kept in a sunny place, they can bloom easily.
8. Euphorbia
Euphorbia milii is really sun-resistant and flower-resistant. Even in a high temperature of 40 degrees, it can be exposed to the sun and still bloom.
Speaking of my Euphorbia milii, it is really easy to grow. As long as the weather warms up in spring, move it outdoors and repot it, it will bloom continuously.
Because it is grown outdoors, it needs more water, generally watering every 1 to 2 days. Also, because it blooms continuously, you need to use Huaduoduo No. 2, because it contains a small amount of nitrogen, which can promote its growth and flowering.
Conclusion: After 10 years of flower cultivation, I found 8 kinds of flowers that are "super sun-resistant" and can bloom even at 40℃. In other words, the above eight kinds of flowers are super sun-resistant and can bloom to overflowing. In the hot summer, which flowers in your home are still blooming to overflowing?
