Does the double-lined arrowroot bloom?

It is a flowering plant

Many people have grown the double-line arrowroot for several years but have never seen it bloom, so they think it is a plant that only grows leaves. Nowadays people also treat it as a foliage plant, but in fact it will bloom. It’s just that the environmental requirements for flowering are relatively high.

Flowering period

Its flowering period is summer and autumn. The double-lined arrowroot is a species of the genus Arrowroot, and its flowers all have the same head-shaped inflorescence.

What kind of environment is suitable for it to bloom?

Temperature: Because it is native to subtropical and tropical regions, it likes high temperatures and grows at temperatures between 20 and 30 degrees. But if you want it to bloom, the daytime temperature must be maintained between 18 and 21 degrees, and the nighttime temperature must be maintained between 16 and 18 degrees.

Sunlight: Sunlight is also an important factor in whether or not a plant can bloom. Generally we will place it indoors, and it is also relatively shade-tolerant, so it only needs to be placed in a bright environment. However, if you want it to bloom, you have to let it bask in the sun every day, but you need to avoid the overly strong sun in the afternoon, especially the midday sun in summer. Not to mention the impact of the sun at this time on flowering, it can cause severe burns to the leaves alone.

Humidity: Humidity should always be maintained between 75% and 85%.
