In hot summer, I want to appreciate beautiful flowers, but I always worry that they can't stand the "test" of the scorching sun. But this flower is very suitable for summer maintenance. In the hot summer, it still blooms even in the high temperature of more than 40 degrees Celsius outdoors! From May to 10 every year, it will quietly open in late spring and early autumn. It will not compete for spring, but it will quietly bloom its beauty in the hot summer when beautiful flowers are unavoidable. Yes, it is frangipani, also known as Burmese gardenia and yolk flower. Its color is gradually elegant, the tree shape is beautiful and grotesque, and the bare trunk bends naturally like a bonsai after falling leaves, which is also very ornamental. As a positive tree species, plumeria likes high temperature environment and can thrive in humid and sunny environment. Although egg yolk likes high temperature and hot environment, it can be maintained normally in semi-cloudy environment. But in the shade, the branches of frangipani tend to overgrow, with few flowers or no leaves. However, if the plumeria is in a cool and humid place, aerial roots will grow on the branches. In the usual maintenance, yolk soil is also one of the important keys to its survival. The soil suitable for plumeria cultivation is mainly acid sandy loam, with deep, fertile soil layer, good water permeability and rich organic matter, so that the plants planted on this soil are robust, beautiful, with large and bright flowers. However, when the soil is poor, the plumeria will grow poorly, with small flower shape and dim color. In nature, frangipani is drought-resistant, waterlogging-resistant and stress-resistant. However, even if plumeria likes high temperature, excessive drought is not conducive to plant development. If frangipani is in a dry and water-deficient environment for a long time, it will lead to poor growth in severe cases, but waterlogging will easily lead to root rot. So you should pay attention to the maintenance of frangipani in summer, especially in dog days. Don't do this! Otherwise it will wrinkle into "old bark". Don't blame uncle gardener for not reminding me! Just like some time ago, this flower friend came to uncle for help: "Are you there?" Uncle gardener, what is the reason why my frangipani has shrunk? I have kept it for more than three years. "This flower friend also provided a photo of his love of flowers. Uncle looked, boy, this stem is wrinkled into old bark! The situation is not optimistic. What caused this flower friend? As mentioned above, although egg yolk grows in high temperature environment, it should be maintained in high temperature season. Like the weather now, the temperature always rises to 30-40 degrees Celsius. At this temperature, people will feel that the sun hurts their skin when they go out. Plumeria can't stand cold and high temperature! The high temperature these days directly leads to too much water consumption of plumeria and too much water loss of stems and leaves. It is suggested that plumeria be maintained in a cool and humid place for a period of time, watered once in the morning and evening, and sprayed with water frequently to increase the air humidity. This kind of frangipani can still rejuvenate. However, if the roots of frangipani are damaged, it is easy to cause the branches of frangipani to shrink. In this case, the absorption of water and nutrients is even worse after the root of frangipani is damaged. At this time, when maintaining the plumeria, it is necessary to move the plumeria to a ventilated and scattered place for maintenance, and often spray water mist near the potted plumeria to maintain the humidity of the air and the moisture of the stems, branches and leaves. Be careful not to accumulate water to avoid root rot. Especially in dog days, too hot weather can easily make the leaves of frangipani evaporate too much water, thus causing drooping and softening symptoms. This is the key to future maintenance. After the plumeria withers, don't bask in the sun to prevent the leaves from being dehydrated and dry, and put the plants in a sunny and ventilated place indoors, which is beneficial to their recovery. When watering at ordinary times, don't be too diligent to prevent the damaged root system from being infected and rotted. The whole plant can be sprayed with 800- 1000 times of doxorubicin or tobuzin to control pests and diseases. Thanks for reading, like friends can like or share.
