What daffodils are red?

Red-lipped daffodil.

1. Ecological habits: It likes cool weather and avoids high temperature and humidity. The suitable temperature for growth is 10-15℃.

2. Reproduction: Propagation is mainly by bulb division, but currently almost all bulbs cultivated in China are imported and have been professionally pre-processed and can be planted directly after purchase.

3. Cultivation and pests and diseases: The bulbs of red-mouthed narcissus are not as large as those of Chinese narcissus, and are not suitable for carving or water cultivation. They need to be cultivated in loose, fertile loam, with organic fertilizer buried in the soil in advance. Cover the soil after planting and place it in a semi-shaded place with about 50% sunshine. The soil needs to be kept moist at ordinary times. After the leaf buds grow out of the soil, move the flower pot to a place with 70% to 80% sunshine for cultivation. During the growth period, topdressing should be done once every 1 to 2 weeks, mainly with phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, and a small amount of nitrogen fertilizer should be used with caution. The main pests and diseases are bulb rot, root mites and stem nematodes. To prevent and control bulb rot, sprinkle nitrate lime at the base of the plant, while for root mites and stem nematodes, the bulbs need to be soaked in 50°C warm water for 30 minutes, or in 43°C 0.5% formalin for 3 to 4 hours before transplanting.

Where to place daffodils

Daffodils are not suitable for indoor cultivation for the following reasons:

First

Daffodils contain certain toxins, which are located in the bulbs of the daffodils. If eaten by humans, people may suffer from vomiting, enteritis and other diseases at the mildest. In severe cases, people may faint, and even their lives may be in danger.

Second

At present, most of the domestic narcissus species are domestic narcissus, and the two most important ones are Yulinglong and Jinzhanyintai. They have a fragrant and beautiful fragrance but contain a lot of toxins. Domestic narcissus usually blooms during or after the Spring Festival, so family members should be prevented from accidentally eating them.

Third

Pay attention to indoor ventilation. When daffodils bloom, their pollen is extremely harmful to pregnant women. The juice of the flowers and leaves can cause skin redness and swelling. Be careful not to let children ingest them by mistake. Pay attention to safety.

Fourth

It is best to place daffodils in a high place and keep them out of reach of children. It would be bad if they were poisoned due to curiosity. Remember, if you have wounds on your hands, do not touch daffodils or carved daffodils to avoid infection and poisoning.

Narcissus flowers are fragrant and will not cause any harm or impact to the human body if you just place a pot of them indoors. However, if you feel dizzy after smelling the fragrance of narcissus flowers, it is best to plant them outdoors.

How to grow daffodils

1. Narcissus is very adaptable to soil. It can grow in all soils except heavy clay soil and gravel soil, but it prefers loose texture, good structure and strong water retention. It can be planted in alluvial soil and other soils rich in organic matter and well-drained.

2. After the daffodils form buds, the nutrients in the bulbs are almost exhausted, so proper fertilization is required in the later stages of growth. From the beginning of bud formation, add a small amount of potassium dihydrogen phosphate (0.5 g each time) to the pot when changing water, or spray the leaves with 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate. Adding 1/4 tablet of aspirin containing 0.3 mg or 1 tablet of oryzanol to the daffodil pot can also appropriately extend the flowering period and delay the wilting of the flowers.

3. Narcissus requires more water than other plants. In the early stage of planting bulbs, water is not much, as long as the soil is kept moist. In the peak growth and development period, various organs develop rapidly and require large amounts of water and fertilizer, which must be replenished in time. In the mature stage, metabolic activity weakens, and the need for water also decreases accordingly, or even stops completely.

4. Narcissus belongs to the hygrophilous type, and has different requirements for water at different development stages. The water requirement is small in the early stage of bulb planting, as long as the soil is kept moist. During the vigorous growth and development period, the water requirement is large, and it must be replenished in time and irrigated frequently. At the mature stage, the metabolic activity weakens again, and the water requirement is reduced accordingly.
