Growing A Beautiful Curcuma Flower

By Angela Wright


For those who love beautiful flowers that are simple yet elegant, the curcuma is one of the best choices to grow. The curcuma flower is one of the nicest looking flowers that grow in really hot regions such as tropical places. If one wants to grow one, then here are some of the things one has to take into consideration.

As mentioned above, these types of flowers are very prone to growing on the very hot temperature places such as tropical countries. That said, it would die in the areas that are very cold or have freezing temperatures. However, one can actually bypass this if he or she grows the flower under artificial sunlight away from freezing places.

Another thing that one must take note of would be the soil conditions that the plant must grow in. This type of flower must be in moist soil so that it can grow well. That is why it is recommended that this plant be partially shaded so that the soil does not become too dry under the very harsh sun rays of summer.

Aside from keeping the soil moist by putting it under partial shade, it must also have a lot of organic matter on it for it to really flourish. It is recommended that compost be used in the soil so that it grows well in the long run. Like any plant, it must be watered regularly without really having much natural rain touch it to flood it out.

Now, one concern for this type of plant would be the clay and sand level in the soil. If one notices that the sand and the clay levels are a bit too high that it dries up the soil, then one may consider putting some extra compost on it. One should also fertilize the soil with general purpose fertilizer to keep it working well.

Now, take note that fertilizing the plant has to be done during either the spring or the summer because that is the time that it grows the best. During the autumn time, one should just prune the flower so that it will still look fresh even though the weather is not hot. In the winter though, one may want to keep it indoors under an artificial LED light to give it heat.

Now, one thing that gardeners have to absolutely avoid would be deadheading the flower. For those that do not know what this is, it is the process of taking out the faded or the old flowers so that the fresh ones look nice and new. However, these flowers do not need this process as they can look fresh just naturally.

If one is interested in growing these types of flowers, he or she has to simply follow some of these tips. As mentioned, they are very easy to grow so as long as one follows these tips, he or she should have no problem. So all one has to do is to make sure that he or she prepares the right environment for the plant and take care of it with these tips.
