If you want the hippeastrum on your windowsill to bloom as lushly as possible, you should remove dried flowers in a timely manner.
And what to do with the plant after the flowering period is over, was explained by the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh .
Before taking any action, it is worth waiting for the flower stalk to die off naturally.
As long as it is green in color, the main stem is still absorbing light and passing on nutrients to the bulb.
Once the stem changes color, you have two options: carefully pull it out of the bulb or cut it off, leaving 2.5 cm from it.
In addition, the flower should be watered regularly.
As a top dressing, which should be applied every 2-3 weeks, use a weak fertilizer solution.
In addition, you need to take care of supporting the foliage: bamboo sticks are perfect for this.
