1、 Flowering season

Begonia flowers normally bloom between April and may in spring, but this is not absolutely right. The specific flowering time is related to the light given during maintenance. If the light is sufficient, the flowering will be earlier and the flowering period will be longer. If it is kept away from light for a long time and the temperature is low, the flowers will bloom late and wither early

In addition, flowering time is also related to variety. Some varieties bloom early, such as Begonia and begonia, which usually bloom between March and April in spring. The four seasons Begonia will bloom in spring and autumn

2、 Maintenance after flowering

1. Watering: the water consumed during the flowering period will be greater than that at ordinary times. Therefore, it is necessary to replenish water in time after flowering, keep it moist and let it recover as soon as possible. When watering, it is necessary to slowly infiltrate from the flowerpot, and the water is best dried. However, we should pay attention to reduce the amount of water in the germination period to avoid rotten roots

2. Fertilization: after the flower withers, it is necessary to supplement fertilizer and nutrition in time. Sufficient nutrients are more conducive to the recovery of growth. When applying fertilizer, the concentration should not be too large. It is best to apply thin fertilizer for many times to avoid large amount of root burning

3. Pruning: cut off the remaining flowers as soon as possible after the flowers wither, reduce nutrient consumption, and promote the plant to grow more vigorously. It should be noted that when pruning, the flower center should be removed first, and then the residual flowers should be cut off
