Paper flowers are a popular type of ornamental plant in Vietnam because they have vibrant and beautiful colors. With proper care, paper flowers are easy to bloom and can flower all year round.

Paper flowers originate from Brazil (South America) and have been imported to other countries, especially those with tropical climates. They have been bred into many beautiful varieties such as Thai paper flowers, American paper flowers, etc. Vietnam is also located in the tropical climate zone, so paper flowers are easy to grow and can be planted in many places nationwide for decoration and shade (as trellis for climbing plants)…

Why don’t paper flowers bloom or bloom very little?

The ideal living conditions for paper flowers are hot and dry environments. If they are planted in nutrient-rich soil, the plants will grow quickly and the leaves will be healthy, but they will take longer to bloom compared to growing in dry, airy soil.

The better the care, the more difficult it is for the plants to bloom. Therefore, to make your paper flowers bloom all year round and have abundant flowers, you need to provide proper care.

How to make paper flowers bloom more?

Watering beer for paper plants

According to the experience of people who grow ornamental plants, especially flowering plants like paper flowers, using leftover beer to water the plants is always a great way to make your plants greener, produce more flowers, and have longer-lasting flower colors. We will see the great effects that beer brings to plants, including:

Beer contains a certain amount of sugar and starch along with 90% water. However, this concentration is still very high compared to the needs of plants, so you have to dilute it to be able to water your paper plants. After watering your paper plants with beer, the components in the beer will soak into the soil and this is the source of nutrients that the plants need. At this point, the beer acts as a clean fertilizer for your plants, making them greener every day.

Sugar and yeast in beer help nourish beneficial bacteria in the soil, beneficial for paper flowers. Therefore, besides using beer to water paper plants, you can also use beer to water other pots like flowering plants such as Dianthus, roses, etc. But remember to water at the base of the plant, not on the leaves because this is not good for the plants.

In addition, if you use leftover beer from your family, you can repel many types of pests from your plants, thus protecting all parts of the plants. Accordingly, pests such as snails, wasps, vinegar flies, or house mice are very afraid of the smell of beer. So, don’t waste beer because it will help you have green, clean, and safe vegetable gardens.

With this method, dilute the beer with water at a ratio of 1:30, stir well and then water your paper plants. Do not make it too concentrated, otherwise, it will generate relatively high heat, potentially causing the plant’s roots to rot. Water once every 20 days, and your paper flowers will have obvious changes.

Watering vinegar for paper plants

For a long time, vinegar has been an indispensable ingredient in cooking. But few people know that vinegar also has uses in growing plants and keeping them fresh, especially with paper flowers.

Watering diluted vinegar into the soil will increase the acidity of the soil, provide a certain amount of iron to the plants, help the paper plants produce even, fresh, and green flowers.

Moreover, vinegar also helps the paper plants to have fresh flowers and prolong their freshness when not in use. After cutting the paper flowers to put in vases, you should dilute the vinegar-sugar solution at a ratio of 2:1 and pour it into the vase. With this method, the flowers will last for many more days.

Instructions: Dilute 150ml of vinegar with 4 liters of clean water and then water the soil. Doing this 2-3 times per week will yield the most noticeable results.

In addition, the following solutions will also help your paper flowers bloom more:

– After each flowering period, trim the branches, and supplement them with decayed organic fertilizer.

– During the growth stage (when the plant produces new leaves), it is necessary to fertilize with inorganic fertilizer, or spray foliar fertilizer.

– When the plant grows, sprouts leaves (about 2-3 months), it is ready for a new flowering period. At this time, it is necessary to supplement the plant with fertilizers high in potassium or phosphorus, divided into 2 times, and provide sufficient water for the plant to absorb the nutrients optimally. The fertilizing time is from 10-15 days.

– Handling stage: Start restricting watering, gradually reaching a point of no watering at all, helping the plant enter the bud differentiation stage (the reproductive stage). This is an important stage that determines whether the paper flowers will bloom abundantly and evenly. In the case of paper flowers planted directly in the ground, it may not be necessary to water for 3-5 days. In the case of potted plants, you need to monitor them daily. If they become too dry, you should lightly water them to maintain the moisture for the plants and prevent them from wilting excessively. The watering period is 5-7 days, then water again with a sufficient amount of water, not too much.

– When you see the leaves of the paper flowers start to cluster smaller, the new leaves grow a slightly darker color, and small shoots appear, it means the plant has entered the budding stage.

– To help the flowers of the paper plants be vibrant, long-lasting, you can supplement them with vitamin B1 and flower nutrients regularly once a week, while maintaining adequate watering (flowering stage).

Above are ways to make your paper flowers bloom more, please refer to them to have vibrant and beautiful paper flowers.
