How to make the kapok tree bloom on New Year's Day

Actual flowering period

They generally bloom as early as February and only once a year. If you go there specifically to see the scenery, you will see patches of kapok trees blooming, a sea of ​​bright red, warmly welcoming a new season. These flowers contrast sharply with the bleak surrounding scenery, and can even be compared with the plum blossoms standing proudly in the cold wind! However, this kind of flower only takes half a month from its blooming to its withering. Therefore, this kind of flower is very precious. Friends who like it can go and see it specially, or plant a pot at home and wait for it to bloom. It is also a good feeling!

Flowering Tips: Weeding

This method of making kapok flowers bloom as soon as possible can only be recommended to friends who plant them in pots. It is difficult for naturally grown kapok flowers to bloom early. If the average temperature at home can reach 20℃, then it is absolutely possible to grow a pot of this kapok plant. However, during the planting process, you must pay attention to removing weeds, because the pot is small and provides just enough nutrients to the plant. Weeds will absorb a lot of nutrients, especially before flowering, when the plants will need more nutrients. So once weeds appear, they must be pulled out in time.

Flowering secret: warming

Unlike other flowers, this one blooms before its leaves in dry and hot areas. But in rainy climates, the flowers come out along with the leaves. So if you can create a dry and hot environment, they will appear before the leaves. Because the temperature required for flower buds and leaf buds to germinate is different, you must try your best to keep them warm so that they will be more likely to bloom.

Okay, now that I’ve told you all these great secrets, hurry up and get them done!
