Who knows if carnations, carnations and geraniums are good? I am in Changsha

Carnation, native to the coastal areas of China, likes a cool and sunny environment, which is not heat-resistant, dry and low-temperature. It should be planted in calcareous soil with rich humus and good drainage. The flowering period is from April to September, and it is cultivated in protected areas all the year round. Carnation is an excellent variety of cut flowers, with delicate color, fragrant smell and long flowering period, which is suitable for all kinds of flower arrangement and often forms a beautiful bouquet with gladiolus, asparagus and bracken.

Cold-resistant, drought-resistant, heat-resistant, often grow poorly or wither in summer, so pay attention to shading and cooling when cultivating. I like sunny, dry, ventilated, cool and humid climate. It requires fertile, loose and well-drained calcareous loam or sandy loam to avoid waterlogging and be fertile.

Carnation blooms in the morning and closes at night. If it is sunny in the morning, cool at noon and exposed to the sun at night, the viewing period can be extended and the flowers can continue to bloom.

Geranium is strong and has few pests and diseases; Its adaptability is also very strong, all kinds of soil can grow, but sandy loam rich in humus grows best; Like sunshine, so warm, a little drought-tolerant, afraid of water accumulation, not resistant to the exposure of hot summer sun. In summer, plants stop growing, leaves begin to age, and they are half asleep. At this time, you can move them to a cool place outside, stop applying liquid fertilizer, water them on time, and put down the pots in rainy days to prevent the roots from rotting.

Summer in September is very cool. At this time, you can turn over the pot and change the soil. First, cut the branches short, leaving only about 10 cm at the base of each branch, so that the new shoots can be replaced by new branches. Geranium should be watered moderately, and the soil should not be too wet. It is advisable to dry the potted soil for half a day after watering.
