During the growth and development process of potted flowers, wilting occurs due to environmental factors and the flowers themselves, which inhibits the growth of the flowers. In severe cases, the flowers will die. Measures must be taken for timely maintenance and rejuvenation.
[color=Red]1. Drought wilting:[/color] Flowers and trees that have been in drought for a long time and cannot be watered in time will wilt from the top downwards, and the bark of the branches will shrink until the whole plant dies. In this case, it is necessary to spray water on the leaves of drought-stricken flowers and trees and the surrounding environment to maintain a high environmental humidity. Do not use a large amount of low-temperature water to irrigate the soil in a high-temperature environment.
[color=Red] 2. Water wilting: [/color] The water content in the soil is too high, and the plant root system will be blocked or suffocated to death. The branches and leaves will not be supplied with water from the root system, and will wilt or even die. . Affected flowers and trees should be protected from direct sunlight and strong winds, and some young branches and leaves should be cut off to reduce water evaporation. The soil should be loosened promptly for flowers and trees planted on the ground. For potted flowers and trees, remove one-third of the overly wet potting soil and replant with dry soil. Combined with spraying water on the leaves, spray thin liquid fertilizer every three days. After 10 days of maintenance, the damaged flowers and trees can recover.
[color=Red]3. Fat and wilting:[/color] The fertilizer concentration in the soil of flowers and trees is too high, causing the water in the flowers and trees to penetrate into the soil (ie reverse osmosis), commonly known as root burning, causing flowers and trees to wilt. Wither or even die. Injured flowers and trees planted on the ground can be irrigated with large amounts of water to dilute the fertilizer concentration in the soil and discharged in time. For potted flowers and trees, remove the topsoil in the pot and irrigate with water so that excess fertilizer flows out from the lower part of the pot with the water, and then cover the pot surface with a layer of plain soil. At the same time, measures such as shading and spraying water on the leaves of the affected flowers and trees are taken to maintain the life of the branches and leaves of the flowers and trees. They can return to normal after 10 to 20 days.
Death and wilting caused by insect pests are difficult to recover. The branches of precious flowers and trees can be cut and cut or grafted.
[color=Red]5. Wind wilting:[/color] The new shoots of flowers and trees, especially when they grow in large numbers in spring, encounter strong light and strong wind (especially dry wind), the flowers and trees will wilt. Wilting often occurs. At this time, shade, shelter from the wind, and water spraying on the leaves can be used to prevent the new shoots from losing water and wilting.
[color=Red] 6. Heat wilting: [/color] Flowers that like a cool environment in summer, if placed in a place with strong light and high temperature, the leaves will wilt, curl up, or even turn yellow and fall off. It should be immediately placed in a moist, ventilated, and cool place.
[color=Red]7. Cold wilting:[/color] The temperature in the north fluctuates greatly, and the night temperature suddenly drops below 10℃. The leaves of some southern flowers such as hibiscus, jasmine, and rhododendron will wilt in the early morning. It loses its luster and gradually recovers after the temperature rises at noon. A short period of cold wilting has little effect on flowers, but care should be taken to keep them warm.
