How to grow Chlorophytum comosum in winter

Winter preparation

Before the arrival of winter, a typical change of the Chlorophytum comosum is that it basically stops growing, which means that it has entered a dormant period. At this time, flower lovers need to cut off some diseased and insect-infested branches, and then trim the densely stacked branches to reserve a reasonable growth space.

Winter maintenance

The most critical step is "pruning, pruning, pruning". In addition to pruning before winter, the overgrown branches and weak branches should also be pruned after entering the cold winter. Do not underestimate this operation because it can increase the survival life of the plant.

Winter management

Managing the Chlorophytum based on its growth habits is the primary prerequisite for safe wintering. Therefore, the cold-not-hardy Chlorophytum comosum needs to be moved to a warmer place when winter comes. Secondly, in daily management, although it is cultivated indoors, this plant also needs sufficient light in winter. This helps prevent the plants from getting sick in winter and plays an important role in the luxuriant growth of the plants in the second year.

This flower, like other hibernating plants, grows slowly in the cold winter and does not require much water. Starting from autumn, you should gradually reduce the amount of water. In winter, you basically don’t need to water the plant or water it very rarely.

The key points of winter care for this plant are the three aspects mentioned above: pruning, lighting and watering. If the above winter maintenance methods are followed, the Chlorophytum comosum will give flower lovers an eye-catching bonsai next year.
