In the world of flowers, there are always some varieties that, due to the high difficulty in maintenance, have become "noble flowers" in the mouths of flower enthusiasts. These flowers are not only expensive but also daunting to many novice flower growers because of their difficult growth habits. Today, let's take a closer look at these five generally recognized expensive and difficult-to-grow flowers.
King Protea
The King Protea, with its huge flowers and majestic posture, is known as the "king of flowers." Its flowers are rich in colors, ranging from bright orange-red to elegant pure white. Each flower exudes an air of nobility and extraordinariness. The King Protea is not only a great ornamental plant but also symbolizes power and dignity.
The King Protea has extremely high requirements for soil. It needs loose, breathable, well-drained slightly acidic soil. It is afraid of both drought and waterlogging. The watering amount needs to be flexibly adjusted according to the season and growth state. The King Protea needs sufficient sunlight and appropriate temperature. It needs shading in summer and keeping warm in winter. If you don't have rich flower-growing experience, beginners are advised not to try the King Protea easily to avoid ending in regret due to improper maintenance.
Orchids
There are many kinds of orchids, and each one has its unique charm, pleasing to the eye. Orchids are very picky about planting materials and need to use special orchid soil with good air permeability and moderate water retention. Orchids like an environment with good ventilation. Poor air circulation can easily lead to pests and diseases. Water and fertilizer need to be finely controlled according to the season and growth stage. A little carelessness may lead to root rot.
Although orchids are beautiful, they are relatively difficult to maintain. Beginners are advised to start with easy-to-manage varieties and gradually accumulate experience before challenging more difficult orchid varieties.
Tulips
Tulips are outstanding among spring flowers. Before planting tulips, the bulbs need to be carefully selected and disinfected to prevent pests and diseases. Tulips are sensitive to temperature and can only grow and bloom normally at an appropriate temperature. During the growth period, the soil needs to be kept moist but not overly wet to avoid waterlogging and root rot. Although tulips are beautiful and moving, they also need careful and thoughtful maintenance. Beginners are advised to fully understand their growth habits before planting.
Roses
As a symbol of love, roses, whether as ornamental plants or cut flower materials, have won people's love. Roses are easily attacked by various pests and diseases and need regular inspection and prevention. Reasonable pruning and shaping can not only promote the growth and blooming of roses but also improve their ornamental value. Roses need regular fertilization during the growth period to supplement nutrients, but attention should be paid to controlling the fertilizer amount to avoid burning the roots. Although the maintenance difficulty of roses is relatively moderate, they still need careful management to grow healthy and beautiful flowers. Beginners are advised to learn more and practice more during the maintenance process.
Calla Lilies
Calla lilies symbolize holiness and purity and are one of the ideal flowers in many people's minds. Calla lilies like a humid environment, but excessive moisture can easily lead to root rot. Calla lilies need sufficient light but cannot be exposed to direct sunlight. Regular fertilization is needed during the growth period, but attention should be paid to controlling the concentration to avoid burning the roots. The maintenance of calla lilies requires certain skills and accumulated experience. Beginners are advised to understand their growth habits before planting and maintaining.
Although these five "noble flowers" are beautiful and moving, they are not easy to maintain. For beginners without flower-growing experience, it is recommended to start with easy-to-manage flower varieties to accumulate experience and then gradually challenge these difficult flower varieties.
