There is a flower whose blossoms closely resemble lotus flowers and whose leaves are like leeks. Moreover, it is an effective antidote plant for treating snake bites. It is the "Zephyranthes grandiflora", also known as Zephyr Lily. It is a perennial herb native to Central and South America. It is now commonly cultivated in parks and gardens across China and is a perennial herb of the genus Zephyranthes in the Amaryllidaceae family.
Zephyranthes grandiflora can be seen everywhere in rural mountainous areas. It has a long flowering period and is easy to grow. It can also be found in the flower market with a wide variety of varieties. It is generally planted in pots. It likes full sunlight, but can also tolerate partial shade. It has high requirements for soil and needs well-drained, humus-rich sandy soil. It blooms in summer and autumn (from June to September).
In terms of maintenance, the growth temperature of Zephyranthes grandiflora is between 22 and 30 degrees Celsius. It likes hot temperatures, so it can tolerate drought and high temperatures. It is best to provide it with full sunlight every day. When the temperature is below 10 degrees in winter, it needs to be placed indoors in a wind-sheltered place to prevent it from being frostbitten.
In terms of daily watering, it likes a humid environment, so it needs to be watered frequently. However, it should also be noted that there should be no water accumulation at the bottom of the flower pot, otherwise the roots will easily rot. During the flowering period, it is necessary to water thoroughly in a timely manner when the soil is dry. Only in this way can the normal opening and growth of the flowers be ensured.
Regarding the most important parts of fertilization and pruning in flower cultivation, it is recommended to fertilize Zephyranthes grandiflora once every two weeks during its growth period. The method of applying fertilizer liquid is the same as that of watering. Be sure not to stain the leaves. In terms of pruning, if seeds are not to be left after flowering, the withered flower stems should be pruned in a timely manner. This can promote the formation of new flower stems and continue to let the bulbs of the plant germinate and reproduce. At the same time, yellow leaves and withered flowers should be removed in a timely manner.
In addition to having the effects of promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis, enhancing immunity and improving blood circulation, Zephyranthes grandiflora has very special and auspicious flower language because of its extremely beautiful flowers.
