How to plant ginger lotus

Selection of bulbs

If you want to grow this flower well, you must first choose the right bulbs. There are many varieties of them, but in our country, if you plant them as cut flowers, you will basically choose "Chiang Mai Pink". The size of the bulb and the number of roots are important because they will directly affect the number and quality of flowers produced in the future. Therefore, it is best to choose one with a diameter of more than 1.5cm. If conditions permit, it is best to choose plants with more than 3 storage roots, so that they can grow well from the beginning.

Planting time

Flower lovers who specialize in growing this kind of flower may be more familiar with it. They originally grow in relatively hot places, so the planting time should be chosen according to their suitable temperature. If you are in a hotter place like Guangdong, it is more suitable for cultivation. It can be planted in February to April, and it is best to plant it before April, because after April, the rainy season will come.

Post-planting care

The newly planted ginger lotus must be shaded, otherwise the seedlings will not be able to withstand the strong sunlight and will be easily burned. However, if the seedlings grow densely, the shading facilities must be removed, otherwise the seedlings will grow too tall, absorbing the influence originally provided to the flower buds, affecting the quality and quantity of the flowers. Nor will they fail to grow to their original length due to excessive growth, which would be counterproductive.

Okay, now you know how to grow such beautiful flowers. It is actually not difficult. As long as you follow the steps carefully, you can grow them well.
