How to buy potted flowers before the Spring Festival
The selection of flowers for the Spring Festival should start from the following three points:
1) Look at the soil first.
Overall, the basin soil is loose and breathable, and there is no hardening and cracking. The potted flowers and trees look fresh and strong as a whole, with no white branches and no signs of wilting and dying.
The size of the plant is commensurate with the size of the flowerpot. Don't buy that kind of small flowered pot or big flowered pot.
2) Second, look at the local area.
Check every part of potted flowers to ensure that there are no spots, eggs and so on caused by pests and diseases. Flower-watching plants can be bought with buds, but they are not open yet, so as to ensure a certain flower viewing period after buying them back.
The foliage plants should be potted plants with bright and shiny leaves and no yellow leaf spots; Also look at the hole in the pelvic floor and choose the hole in the pelvic floor without fibrous roots.
3) Look at the whole again
Judging from the old and new soil, it is better to choose the old soil. If it is new soil, the stems of flowers and trees will loosen when touched lightly. Generally, flowers and trees that have just been planted in pots have not yet grown new roots, and the root system has not yet been settled, so the survival rate is poor.
In addition, if you don't handle the potted plants with soil hardening well, it is likely that water has accumulated, leading to rotten roots.
