Why do hibiscus flowers stop growing buds after one flower?
The flowering of hibiscus can last from summer to winter. Under normal circumstances, it should be one after another. Why can't it bloom at once? Blue devil analysis, probably for the following three reasons.
1, untrimmed
Friends who have raised small hibiscus flowers can observe the characteristics of small hibiscus flowers. The flowers of small hibiscus flowers grow in the axils of new branches, and the flowers chase after them all the way. Therefore, after the first flower, if the small hibiscus is not properly pruned and pruned, then the small hibiscus will not grow new branches and naturally will not grow buds.
Therefore, hibiscus flowers should be pruned every time after flowering. Pruning is to promote the growth of new lateral branches, control plant type, and also to grow more new branches and flowers.
2. Lack of fertilizer and water
Sometimes we prune hibiscus after it blooms, but it still doesn't bloom. In this case, we need to consider whether there is a shortage of fertilizer and water.
Small hibiscus flowers are very big and grow fast, so small hibiscus flowers are actually plants that need more fertilizer and water. If topdressing is not applied in time during or after flowering, it is likely that hibiscus will not be able to breed new buds because it consumes too much nutrients, so it is necessary to insist on topdressing frequently and maintain sufficient fertilizer and water.
3. Insufficient lighting
Hibiscus microphylla is a positive plant that likes full sunshine. If cultivated in the shade for a long time, the light is seriously insufficient, and the small fruit hibiscus rarely blooms, or even does not bloom at all. It is best to put hibiscus in a sunny and ventilated place, so that hibiscus can receive sufficient light, which is more conducive to the vigorous growth and flowering of hibiscus.
