Flower of the day: flower language: send spring flowers to vanity, also known as spring green orchid

Drunk leaning on the small building listening to the wind and rain, light snow sent spring flowers.

Send spring flowers, also known as biechunhua, late spring brocade, and red moon grass in ancient times. It is an ancient rare genus one or two-year herb of liuyecao family. It is a good material for flower bed and border planting in early summer and can also be used as a potted plant.

Growth habit:

Like light, like cold climate, avoid hot and cold. Suitable for planting in cool area in summer. I like sandy loam with good drainage.

The plant height varies from 20cm to 90cm depending on the variety. The plant is clustered due to many branches, with thin stem and slightly lignified base. Leaves alternate, strip to lanceolate, often dark red in the upper part under sunny conditions.

The sparse leafy spikes grow on the top of branches. The flowers are divided into single petals and double petals. The single petal varieties have 4 petals, the stem is about 5cm, and there are brocade like silks. The flower colors are white, snow green, pink, red, purple red, etc. the light petals often have dark patches at the base or center, while the dark petals have light patches. The capsule is nearly round in early summer. Spring flowers are native to the southwest of the United States. They like the sunny environment without severe cold in winter and heat in summer. They don't have strict soil requirements.

In ancient times, it was a transliteration of its Latin name "Godetia" and its scientific name was Godetia amoena G.Don. Because the English common name means "farewell, spring", it is also called "farewell spring flower".

It is a good material for flower bed and border planting in early summer, and can also be used as a pot plant. High stem species can be used as cut flowers, or as the background of various flower beds. In ancient times, it can be planted in flower beds and flower mirrors. Because of the creeping growth of plants, the flower buds stand upright, and the flowers are close to the ground. When they are in full bloom, they are like carpets, very gorgeous, and are important ornamental flowers. In addition, it can also be used to decorate the venue, balcony, windowsill and other places.

General garden soil can be planted. Reproduction can be sown in September, and the suitable temperature for seed germination is 20 ℃. It can also be sown in spring in cool summer areas, but it can not bloom until July and August. The seedlings sown in autumn should be maintained in a cool and sunny room in winter, and the temperature should be kept above 0 ℃ and below 10 ℃. When the weather turns warm in the spring of the next year, the seedlings should be separated from the room or directly planted in the garden.

After the young seedlings are restored to growth, the management of water and fertilizer shall be strengthened, and water shall be frequently used to keep the soil moist, but no water shall be accumulated. In order to form more flower buds and achieve the purpose of more flowers and big colors, the mature thin liquid fertilizer or compound fertilizer should be applied once every 7 to 10 days, and the P fertilizer should be increased properly in the pregnancy stage. It can also be sown in autumn, in warm climate, in cold climate, in greenhouse, and transplanted in April. The flowering period is from May to June, and the growth temperature is 18 ℃ - 25 ℃.

Like light, like cold climate, avoid hot and cold. Suitable for planting in cool area in summer. I like sandy loam with good drainage.
