Spring Festival is one of the most important traditional festivals in China. As the new year begins, everyone is in high spirits and eager to decorate to create a festive atmosphere. During this special time, it is very common for every household to buy several pots of flowers that carry good and auspicious meanings. Next, I will recommend several types of flowers that can bring a strong Spring Festival atmosphere.
Phalaenopsis
Phalaenopsis symbolizes happiness and a smooth career path. Besides its auspicious meaning, its flower shape resembles a dancing butterfly, which is very eye-catching. Placing it at home as the main flower is undoubtedly an excellent choice.
Key points for Spring Festival maintenance: Phalaenopsis prefers moist soil and should not be exposed to strong light. Diffused light is the most suitable. As long as the indoor temperature can be maintained above 15 degrees Celsius, and the soil is kept from drying out while avoiding waterlogging, it can maintain its beautiful flower appearance during the Spring Festival.
Kumquat
The kumquat symbolizes the rolling in of wealth and great fortune. Meanwhile, after the New Year, its fruits can be picked and pickled into "kumquat honey". Its sour taste can stimulate the secretion of gastric juice in the human body, thereby increasing appetite and improving digestive problems such as indigestion.
Key points for Spring Festival maintenance: Kumquats like a warm environment and acidic soil. However, since tap water at home is alkaline, if you only use tap water to water the flowers for a long time, it is easy to cause a layer of white frost to form on the soil. It is recommended that flower lovers appropriately add ferrous sulfate (diluted 1:1000 for acid adjustment) to the water and irrigate the plants with it once a month.
Ardisia crenata
Ardisia crenata symbolizes great wealth and the attraction of wealth and treasure. It has green leaves and bright red fruits, which give people a strong sense of the New Year. In terms of feng shui, it is recommended to place it in the study or living room to enhance the momentum of wealth.
Key points for Spring Festival maintenance: Ardisia crenata likes a warm and humid environment. Although it has low requirements for light, it cannot tolerate excessive shade and prefers to be maintained under diffused light. When it comes to watering, the soil should be watered when it is dry and not watered when it is wet. In terms of fertilization, it is recommended to use nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers during the growing season, which can promote flowering. At the same time, potassium dihydrogen phosphate can be added in an appropriate amount to make the fruits more brightly colored.
