Because Clivia originated in the mountains of South Africa, where the natural environment is like spring all the year round, all organs of Clivia plants have adapted to this lukewarm natural environment. Therefore, in the process of daily maintenance, the temperature should be controlled between 15-25 degrees. When the temperature drops below 10, Clivia grows slowly, and it will freeze to death when it drops below 0. Similarly, when the temperature reaches or exceeds 30 degrees, it will also seriously affect the normal growth and development of Clivia.
Water is an important part of Clivia. According to the determination, Clivia contains 60%-80% water, especially its fleshy roots have strong water storage function and strong drought resistance. Clivia likes neutral water. Clean and pollution-free tap water, well water and river water can be used for irrigation. However, because the water temperature of fresh tap water and well water is lower than the soil temperature and contains some impurities, they should be placed for 1-2 days before use. As for watering, there are also many stresses. For Clivia seedlings, the best way is to spray irrigation with a watering can. Spraying the nozzle upward on the leaves has the advantages of watering the flowers and washing away the dust. At the same time, fog beads are left on the leaves to ensure a certain humidity of the leaves. Evaporating water in the sun can reduce the surface temperature of leaves and prevent sunburn. However, the flowering Clivia can't be watered by sprinkler irrigation to prevent water from entering the leaf sheath and causing rotten hearts. For flowering Clivia, you can only pour water into the basin. When and how much water is appropriate? This mainly depends on the ambient temperature of Clivia. The general principle of watering is "see wet and dry, don't do it, water it thoroughly." Soaking means that all the roots of Clivia are under the same humidity. To judge whether the water is completely poured, you can't just determine whether there is water flowing out of the basin bottom. Because sometimes the soil in the basin will harden and shrink into a ball when it dries, and water will soon flow from the basin wall to the bottom and drip out from the bottom hole after watering. The central part of the basin soil doesn't even touch any water. If you stop watering at this time, Clivia's leaves will wither and form an arrow when it shoots an arrow. Here is a simple and effective watering method, that is, soak all flower pots in a basin or bucket filled with water for half a minute before taking them out. However, the disadvantage of this is that the nutrients in the soil are easy to lose, so in order to make Clivia have deep roots and large leaves, we should pay attention to replenish nutrients to it in time. The nutrients needed by Clivia mainly come from organic fertilizer, such as bean cake, peanut oil cake, animal offal and so on. Under normal circumstances, it can be applied in spring and autumn within one year. Apply 1 time in spring at the end of April and the beginning of May after flowering; After the autumn fruit is harvested, it should be applied again from the middle of September to the end of 10.
Clivia is a wet plant, and its growing environment needs high humidity. Its optimum humidity range is 70%-80%. Clivia grown in this environment has green leaves, clear veins, short, wide and tidy leaves and high ornamental value. However, due to the family environment, it is difficult for ordinary families to meet this standard. This is also the main reason why many people can't raise Clivia. Clivia is a medium-sunshine plant, and its light requirement is not strict. As long as the temperature is suitable, the illumination time can be long or short, and short sunshine in winter and spring is more conducive to flowering. Good illumination is an important condition to ensure the bright color of Junzi Orchid. But it still likes weak light, especially strong light.
Clivia leaves have phototaxis. If left indoors for a long time, the leaves will definitely deflect in the direction of the sun. As far as its plant modeling is concerned, it is difficult to achieve the ornamental effect of looking at a line from the side and looking up like a fan.
Clivia must be placed in the north-south direction, not in the north-south direction. What if the leaves are too long? You can pull two leaves together and clip them together, and you can also enclose them with playing cards. This is not the case ... >>
Question 2: What are the benefits of Clivia to people? The following points can be summarized:
1: Clivia can absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen.
The natural circulation of water, carbon, nitrogen and oxygen is the basic factor to form a good living environment and maintain ecological balance. Under normal circumstances, the content of carbon dioxide in air is three ten thousandths, and the content of oxygen is 2 1%. Maintaining this constant ratio is the result of photosynthesis of green plants. China's first indoor air quality standard was formally implemented on March 1 2003, which clearly stated that "indoor air should be nontoxic, harmless and free from abnormal odor" and stipulated that chemical pollution, physical contamination, biological pollution and radioactive pollution should be controlled, in which the daily average standard value of CO2 is 0. 1%. But an adult exhales one kilogram of carbon dioxide and absorbs 0.75 kilograms of oxygen every day. What is particularly serious is that the atmospheric A dye greatly exceeds the ratio of carbon dioxide and oxygen in the air. Plants, evergreen plants and Clivia have played a very good role in changing this situation, eliminating air pollution, reducing radioactive substances and bacteria, reducing noise, maintaining ecological balance and protecting the environment.
Clivia can absorb water and mineral nutrients from soil and synthesize organic matter (such as amino acids and amides). ) during its growth and development, but it is still not enough for its whole physiological activities. It must use sunlight, temperature, carbon dioxide and water for photosynthesis. This is of great significance to the growth and development of Clivia, beautifying the room, purifying the indoor air and improving people's health.
2. Clivia can purify the air and adsorb dust.
There are some suspended solid or gas particles in the urban air, such as industrial dust, coal-fired smoke and dust on the ground. Some also carry some microorganisms. They can cause various diseases or allergic reactions and endanger people's health. The environmental protection department has also measured that there are some carcinogens in the air, which is a major public hazard in people's lives.
Clivia plants, especially broad and thick leaves, have many pores and villi, which can secrete a lot of mucus. After air circulation, it can absorb a lot of dust, dust and harmful gases, filter indoor air, reduce the dust content in indoor space and make the air clean. Therefore, Clivia is regarded as an ideal "absorber" and "dust collector".
When you are in a gorgeous gentleman orchid, you will feel fresh, comfortable and energetic. Where is the mystery? Because Clivia can purify the air and has high ecological value.
Step 3 beautify the living room
Clivia is green all year round, beautiful, generous and shade-resistant, and it is a good indoor decoration for potted plants. Known as a living handicraft, it is a "money flower". Using it to beautify the living room is a beautiful symbol of spiritual civilization and material wealth.
4. Home collocation
Put it in front of the door to show the gentleman's demeanor. As soon as the guests saw Clivia at the door, they immediately understood the style that the host longed for. Clivia is the best spokesperson.
Put it in the study and always let yourself know to be a gentleman. The study is one of the places where the host works. When you see Clivia in the process of struggle, you will always remember the direction you want to struggle and play a vigilant role.
Put it on the dining table to beautify the indoor environment. When you don't eat, put a small pot of Clivia on the dining table. The whole restaurant looks elegant, which reflects the owner's yearning for elegant life from another angle.
5. Medicinal value
Clivia is considerable and rewarding, and the whole plant is used as medicine. Besides beautifying the environment, it also has certain medicinal value. Clivia plants contain eicolin, chloropyridine and trace element selenium. Drug workers use Clivia plants containing these chemical components for scientific research and have been used to treat cancer, hepatitis, ascites due to liver cirrhosis and spinal cord gray virus. Experiments show that lycorine extracted from the leaves and roots of Clivia has not only antiviral effect, but also anticancer effect.
The anti-cancer activity of lycorine was confirmed by experiments, which mainly showed obvious inhibition on aerobic or anaerobic glycolysis of cancer cells. The positively charged quaternary ammonium salt in lycorine can bind with negatively charged tumor cells, while negatively charged phenolic ion groups can enter positively charged tumor cells, thus playing an anti-cancer role.
Lycorine is mainly used to treat digestive tract tumors, such as gastric cancer, liver cancer and esophageal cancer. It also has certain curative effect on lymphoma and lung cancer. 1February, 985 18 Clivia Changchun reported that a patient with liver cancer came back to life after taking Clivia decoction, which is a good example. Lycorine not only has ... >; & gt
Question 3: What role does Clivia play in geomantic omen? Every plant has its role in feng shui. Clivia is not superficial, but also has its unique feng shui function.
1. It can perceive people's thoughts. Clivia from a disharmonious family doesn't like flowers. When the family celebration is coming, Clivia blooms ahead of schedule.
2. Clivia can distinguish between yin and yang. Plants that like sunlight, if planted (placed) in a humid environment, will be weak, will not bloom, will not bear fruit or die. The normal growth of Clivia requires 1800 lux light, which is a positive plant. If you feel the need of the sun, test it with Clivia, and you will know that it is a positive position.
3. Plants combine five elements. Clivia is a tree, and people who belong to the five elements can consider planting a Clivia. Not only strive for the beauty of the landscape, but also pay attention to its function, so as to create a good feng shui environment for residents.
Question 4: What is the function of Clivia? Is it suitable for indoor culture? Clivia mainly absorbs dust and is suitable for indoor cultivation.
Question 5: What are the advantages of Clivia? Clivia has strong vitality but is not delicate. It is the first choice for family flowers. First of all, it is more resistant to shade and does not need long-term direct sunlight. Followed by drought resistance. If you have something to go out, it's okay not to water for a month. Although the leaves may wither, they will recover after a few days of watering. Third, there are few insects. For example, aphids are the easiest to grow and the most annoying flower pests for most flowers, but Clivia basically does not grow aphids.
Clivia photosynthesis consumes carbon dioxide to produce oxygen during the day, but it is the opposite at night. But at night, the oxygen consumed and the carbon dioxide exhaled are very small. Someone has done an experiment, saying that the breath of 50 pots of flowers and plants at night is the same as that of a kitten. It can be seen that its impact on people is minimal.
Clivia is a famous "lazy flower". Don't work too hard, especially don't water too often. If you are indoors, you can only water it once a week. Then keep the direct sunlight for less than two hours. Searching online for the cultivation methods of Clivia, there are thousands of things that can be seen, and it is boring for me to reprint them.
Question 6: Is it beneficial to raise Clivia at home? Oxygen is needed at night, so flowers can't be kept in the bedroom. Only Clivia will release oxygen at night, and putting a pot of Clivia in the working bedroom is good for people's health ... For example, cactus plants can exhale oxygen at night, which can make the room feel moist and mild while refreshing the air, so it is more suitable to be placed in the bedroom; Clivia can be enlarged.
Question 7: Is it good to raise Clivia indoors? Is it harmful to your health? Method for raising clivia
The soil is 1: Clivia originated from the big trees in the forests of high altitude areas in southern Africa, rooted in rotten leaves accumulated for many years. Clivia should be cultivated with loose and fertile neutral or weakly acidic humus soil, and the cultivated soil can be mixed with humus soil 65%, clean sand 20% and fine furnace ash 15%. The relative humidity of soil should be around 40%. If the soil is hardened and the drainage is not smooth, it will lead to rotten roots. Changing soil in spring, it is best to buy special soil for Clivia planting. The special soil for Clivia is humus, which is very suitable for the growth of Clivia.
Fertilization: Clivia should apply solid fertilizer once in winter, less nitrogen fertilizer, more phosphorus fertilizer and potassium fertilizer. Eggshell powder and cooked fishy water are good phosphate fertilizers, while bran ash and ash are easy to obtain. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizers can also be applied to promote the germination of more new plants and leaves. Fertilization must be appropriate, and it is forbidden to apply thick fertilizer and raw fertilizer that has not been fermented and decomposed, otherwise it will easily cause the tip to scorch or rot. In winter, if the new leaves are spotted and the roots are yellow, it means that there is too much fertilization, while the new leaves are narrow and thin, and the color is particularly light, which is a manifestation of lack of fertilizer.
Water: The soil should not be too dry or too wet. Be sure to water thoroughly every time, and water more after budding. Every 20 days or so, watering and fertilization can be combined with fermented bean cake water, light fishy water and horseshoe water once each. When the room temperature is low, the water should be controlled to prevent the basin soil from getting too wet. Too wet pot soil will lead to the root rot and death of plants, but it should not be too dry.
4. Heat preservation: The suitable temperature for Clivia to grow in winter is 15-20℃, preferably not lower than 10℃. The temperature behind the dart should be kept around 18℃, and the temperature difference between day and night should be around 10℃, otherwise the flower arrow will bloom if it is not long enough, and it is easy to form an "arrow clip". Clivia should be moved indoors when the outdoor temperature is lower than 10℃ at night. When the indoor temperature is lower than 10℃, in addition to covering the surface of the flowerpot with a layer of charcoal powder with a thickness of 1 cm, the flowerpot should also be placed in a sunny place indoors. When the indoor temperature is extremely low, the flowerpot can be covered with a film to increase the temperature, but the temperature in the cover should not exceed 25℃. When it exceeds 25℃, it should be ventilated and cooled in time.
5 illumination: Clivia blooms easily in short sunlight. Exposure to the hot sun and direct sunlight in summer will cause sunburn and inhibit growth. It should be cultivated in a shady shed or semi-shady environment without direct sunlight from May to September every year. But the longer the sunshine in winter, the better. When flowering, weak light can prolong the flowering period. It likes warm and cool, and avoids cold and heat. Generally, it grows well at 18-20℃ and stops growing below 5℃. After Clivia enters the room, the light is limited, so it is necessary to manually move the flowerpot for adjustment. Under normal circumstances, the flowerpot should be placed in a sunny place indoors during the day to let the sun shine on the plants. Before flowering, flowerpots should also be placed under fluorescent lamps to supplement the light at night. Because the two rows of leaves of Clivia are opposite, if the light stays in one position for a long time, the leaves will grow unevenly, which will affect the ornamental effect. Therefore, we should pay attention to the direction of leaves when dimming, and change the sunny side every 10 days or so. There are two ways to place flowerpots indoors: one is to make the leaves parallel to the sunny window, and the other is to make the leaves perpendicular to the sunny window. The latter is better than the former.
6 Prolonged flowering period: The flowering period of Clivia is mostly from 65438+February to March of the following year. The way to prolong the flowering period is to put the flowers in a dark place when they are about to bloom, control the watering appropriately and keep the temperature at 8- 12℃. This can prolong the flowering period 10-20 days.
Causes and solutions of two Clivia arrowheads.
If you can care correctly according to the above methods, it will generally not cause arrow entrapment. Once the arrow is trapped, the effect can only be obtained by using the correct method. Specific countermeasures are:
1 Fertilizer adjustment: Clivia turns into reproductive growth period in autumn, and the fertilizer requirement increases. If the fertilizer is not properly applied, it is not conducive to malnutrition. Therefore, we should pay attention to fertilizer adjustment. Generally, after Clivia has been cultivated for three years, it is necessary to increase the number of fertilization in autumn. It is best to use liquid fertilizer with high phosphorus content and apply more 20% potassium dihydrogen phosphate when necessary to promote the differentiation and formation of flower buds, quickly "shoot arrows" and bloom early.
Water transfer: Water can keep the plants of Clivia in a normal posture, and the cells and tissues in the body contain enough water for normal physiological activities. Clivia can't fly and blossom without water, and its leaves will wither, wither, droop and curl. Therefore, in archery, it is necessary to break the conventional watering method of "seeing wet and seeing dry", appropriately increase the amount of watering, and never let the basin soil dry thoroughly, otherwise the arrow will be caught and the flowering will be affected.
3 Temperature adjustment: The optimum temperature for Clivia is 15℃-25℃, which is lower than 15℃...> & gt
Question 8: What does the root of Clivia do? Clivia, like the roots of other plants, absorbs water, nutrients and fixes plants, and has no other medicinal value. But most importantly, there is a certain correlation between roots and leaves. When new root leaves grow, new leaves will come out and roots will be destroyed (rotted by stagnant water or * * * *, etc. As long as the leaves don't wilt, pay attention to keep the soil moist during maintenance and remember not to water it too much. Damage to the blades will also affect the roots.
Question 9: What kind of clivia do you have at home? If you grow flowers indoors, you should choose some flowers that can absorb toxic gases, purify the air or sterilize. Some flowers themselves have the function of preventing and treating diseases. Such as Clivia, Chrysanthemum, etc. It has the ability to absorb sulfur and hydrogen fluoride, as well as the volatile oil secreted by thyme. It has bactericidal effect, and jasmine can emit volatile oil with bactericidal effect. 1, Clivia: a freshener that releases oxygen and absorbs smoke. An adult Clivia can absorb 1 liter of air day and night, release 80% of oxygen, and can carry out photosynthesis under extremely weak light. 2. Chrysanthemum, also known as Huanghua, Shouke, Jinying, Huanghua, Qiuju, Taoju and Yiju. It belongs to Compositae, a perennial herb with ligulate or tubular petals. Chrysanthemum is a valuable ornamental flower cultivated by long-term artificial selection, also known as artistic chrysanthemum, with more than 3,000 varieties. Thyme is a perennial plant, which is native to the Mediterranean region. It has been used as perfume and medicine since ancient times, and the fragrance is the strongest in the flowering season. Thyme mainly grows in tropical climate, and there are also annual thyme in temperate regions. The plant height of thyme is 1.2~3.6 meters, and there are about 60 varieties, including wild thyme and lemon thyme. 4. Indoor cultivation: Jasmine leaves of evergreen shrubs are green, white and fragrant, and are used for common gardens and potted plants to watch fragrant flowers. Decorating rooms with potted plants is elegant and pleasant, and can also be processed into garlands and other decorations. Most of the yellow and fragrant white flowers of deciduous lianas are one of the best ways to decorate winter gardens in many foreign gardens. "Flowers bloom all over the garden, but the fragrance can't beat it", which is the jasmine flower that "one flower can smoke a room of fragrance". Although jasmine is not dazzling, it has both the sweetness of roses and the fragrance of plum blossoms, both the elegance of orchids and the elegance of magnolia.
Question 10: What is the best way to raise gentleman orchids? When the flower fades, the arrow will naturally shrink. The simple method of Clivia: avoid too long glare in summer and put it in a sunny place in winter. Water it again when it is completely dry. Don't water it frequently, it will rot the roots! You can also buy some phosphorus and potassium fertilizers and apply them once every 5-20 days/kloc-0. Before archery, the temperature should be controlled at about 25℃, and the temperature difference between day and night should be kept at about 8-65,438+00℃, which makes archery easier. There is no need to raise Clivia at home, nor is it a professional breeding! It's not easy to raise Clivia/die!
