How to grow torch flower

1. How to manage

Insufficient light

Torch flower is a plant that likes warm and semi-dry environment, so its potted plant must be guaranteed to have sufficient light. When it is placed in a shaded place for a long time, the lack of light will cause the leaves to turn yellow, and in severe cases, even wither.

Poor soil aeration

Torch flower likes loose soil with good air permeability. If planted in alkaline soil, the soil will become compacted, which will cause its root system to develop slowly, thus affecting the growth of the above-ground part and causing the leaves to turn yellow and dry.

Lack of fertilizer and waterlogging

During the growth period of potted torch flower, if too little fertilizer is applied, too much watering or poor drainage is done, its leaves will turn yellow. In response to the above three reasons, it is necessary to strengthen maintenance and management in time, apply fertilizer frequently, and control watering to avoid yellowing leaves.

2. Main Value

Torch flower is an excellent garden flower. It can be planted in clusters on the lawn or next to the rockery in the courtyard as a courtyard landscape, and it can also be used for people to appreciate. The branches can be used for cut flowers.
