Features of growing a subtropical plant

Like any other tropical or subtropical plant, bouvardia often gets sick at home if you do not take into account the peculiarities of cultivation.
This is a heat-loving evergreen perennial that needs a lot of sunlight. However, please note that direct sun can cause burns. This causes Bouvardia leaves to turn yellow and flower buds to dry out.

If you keep a perennial in such conditions for too long, then in order to protect itself, the plant will kill the entire above-ground part. When keeping Bouvardia in a southern window, there will be enough light for it, but it is better to protect it from the scorching sun with a protective screen or tulle.

Remember that in the wild the plant is found in the subtropics. Therefore, excessive heat and sunlight can be detrimental to it. The optimal temperature for keeping bouvardia is 20..25 ° C. It is best to choose a location on an east or west window. If the apartment's windows face north, then additional lighting with special lamps will be required. In winter, provide the plant with a period of rest. It is optimal to keep it at a temperature of 10-12°C with a reduction in the number of water procedures and cessation of fertilizing. A period of rest is necessary for the plant to lay new flower buds.

In winter, watering is reduced, but not stopped completely. Since the plant stops growing, it uses less nutrients and moisture. Dry earthen lump is a common cause of death of flowers. At any time of the year, melt moisture at room temperature is used for irrigation. In summer, it is best to use rainwater. If you live in a big city, then use bottled moisture or let it sit for 3-4 days.

To maintain high humidity (at least 60%), install an automatic humidifier next to the bouvardia. She feels great next to small indoor fountains or containers of water. High humidity is necessary for active flowering. Without it, the perennial may not bloom at all and the green part of the bouvardia - the stems and leaves - dries out.

Some gardeners who grow plants for cutting and creating bouquets plant Bouvardia as a biennial. In this case, periodic replanting is not required. The fact is that it is in the second year of life that the plant blooms very profusely. Spectacular flowering may not occur again. Those who grow Bouvardia as a home perennial transplant it into a new pot only when necessary. It occurs when the old container has become cramped - usually no more than once every 2 years. The same soil is used for replanting. It can be purchased at a flower shop or made independently using peat, sand and turf. If you buy soil, then choose universal compositions for indoor flowering plants. Plants are replanted by transshipment or combining the procedure with vegetative propagation.

Periodically during the growing season you need to feed bouvardia with mineral complexes. At the beginning of spring, as soon as flower buds begin to form, important elements are nitrogen (in small quantities) and potassium. Closer to autumn and hibernation, try not to apply nitrogen fertilizers, focusing on phosphorus. When feeding with complex formulations for flowering indoor plants, frequency is allowed - no more than once every 14 days. Organics are not recommended.

An unusual flower in the form of a corn cob, wrapped in a petal-veil, also blooms from the base of the trunk.

Wild (meadow) flowers: 34 types with photos, names and applications

Often the name of wildflowers speaks about the noticeable characteristics of the plants. Coltsfoot is so named because of its leaves - warm, terry on one side, smooth and cold on the other.

The tea made from it is very fragrant. Elecampane acquired its nickname because it helps well with weakness and fatigue: it gives a person “nine strength.” It also happens that the name of wildflowers is associated with myths and legends. They say that cornflower is named after St. Basil the Great, who had a special affinity for flowers, and is a symbol of kindness and spiritual purity.

The girl and the guy, having learned that they were brother and sister to each other, so as not to be separated, turned into flowers of different shades. The sleep-grass flower is so called because at night the petals close tightly and the plant droops, as if falling asleep. Another name for this flower is lumbago.
