As the autumn wind gently caresses, the earth gradually puts on a golden yellow coat, but this does not mean the silence of the flower world. On the contrary, it is at this time that we can start preparing for the next round of flower feasts and let the balconies or gardens at home continue to bloom in the changing seasons. Today, we will recommend four plants known as "flower explosion kings".

During the growth period, regular fertilization is needed. 腐熟 organic fertilizer is preferred to promote the robust growth of plants. Trim the withered branches and leaves in due course to keep the plant ventilated and transparent, which is conducive to the opening and growth of flowers.
Calendula officinalis

Calendula officinalis not only has high ornamental value but also has certain medicinal value. It is a good choice for growing flowers in autumn.
Maintenance method:
Autumn is a good time to sow or transplant calendula, which is conducive to its rapid adaptation to the environment and flowering. Calendula officinalis likes a cool environment and has strong cold resistance, but it should be noted to avoid high temperatures and severe cold. Regularly check the plants and find and deal with pest and disease problems in time.
Verbena hybrida
Although the cold in winter makes many flowers enter a dormant period, Verbena hybrida can gracefully bloom in this season. Its flowers are small and exquisite, and the flower colors are rich and varied, including purple, pink, white and many other colors. Verbena hybrida not only has strong cold resistance but also has a long flowering period. It is an ideal choice for growing flowers in winter.
Maintenance method:
Verbena hybrida does not have high requirements for temperature, but in winter, attention should still be paid to keeping warm and preventing cold and avoiding long-term exposure to low temperature environments. Although the sunlight in winter is weak, it is still necessary to ensure that Verbena hybrida receives a certain amount of sunlight every day. Watering in winter should be appropriately reduced. Keep the soil slightly dry to avoid waterlogging and root rot.
