How to Revive Sunburned Flowers?

Jul 14, 2019 Florist Singapore Comments Off on How to Revive Sunburned Flowers?

So how do we Revive Flowers Scorched by the Summer Sun?

A typical issue with the plants growing indoor and outdoor is that they can experience the ill effects of too much sun. The rays of the sun can make the leaves dry out, making the plant lose a lot of its vitality. A sign that your plant has been exposed to the sun for too long is an accumulation of bleached or dull spots on the leaves. As a rule, the soil underneath the plant will have next to zero moisture, causing it to solidify. In the event that this happens to be the situation with your plants, adhere to the directions below for a quick solution. Do note that, not all plants can be easily resuscitated, so stay calm, and watch them more closely.

An excess of direct daylight can burn the leaves, making them turn brown or white and drop. This regularly occurs in summer or spring when houseplants, which are used to low-light conditions, are brought outside into direct daylight for the hotter months. Sunburn can likewise happen inside when a houseplant that loves shade is moved to a spot with a lot of sun in the home. Promptly adopting a few social habits will help spare your houseplants from irreversible harm or from dying.

But, how can you tell if you have lost the plant to a harsh summer sun? How would you nurture sunburnt plants back to life? How will you know if seriously harm plants can be saved?

You have to check their vitals. To enable you to do that, our local florist has outlined a checklist below. It will be beneficial to respond to the questions.

Is the plant still alive?

Patience is the first order of business. The harsh summer lingers in several places, and some plants might be bud out in excitement. But, other plants will grow slower especially if they aren’t getting enough water! Try not to give up too early – particularly on uncommon specimens or top favorites.

First, check the leaf buds and the flowers when looking for searching for vital signs of the plant. Attempt these basic tests:

1. The fingernail test

Use your fingernail to scratch a small part of stem or bark. The stem is not dead if the scratch uncovers green tissue. The stem is dead if the tissue exposed is brown in color.

2. The bend test

Gently twist the stem around your finger. The plant is alive if the stem is flexible. It is dead if it snaps. Do this for the whole length of the stem till it stops breaking.

3. The test for the flower bud

Check the flowers and the leaves. If the flower buds are plump, it means the plant is fine. Squash one of the buds with your fingers. Flaky appearance means the bud is dead. Remove any of the buds that appear wilted, limp or discolored.

While these tests are great markers of the plant wellbeing and can be performed whenever required, they are not completely foolproof. A plant could, in any case, look alive when it’s about to die.

What to do when some portion of the stem is dead?

If the top of the stem is dead, cut that part off till you see green growth. If you can’t see that, a standard rule is to reduce 33% of their length at once until you discover green tissue.

How to Revive the Scorched Flowers?

Transfer the plant to an area with a lot of shade to prevent any more sun damage. If you want the plant to get some sun, do that slowly. For instance, to help a houseplant fully transition into an outdoor type, put it outdoors in the sun for two hours. After 2-3 days, start to gradually increase to exposure to the sun by an hour. Do this for about 2-3 weeks. You can transition the plant back indoor with this same process in spring.

Don’t overwater a plant that loosed all its leaves because of the sunburn, regardless of whether it happened outdoor or indoor. Your plant does not require as much water as it did initially. Apply water gradually until you see it trickle out the hole for drainage. Then, allow the water to go into the skin (2-3 inches deep). You can use your finger to feel if the soil is wet, just ensure you don’t harm the plant roots. Gradually increase the watering as new leaves begin to form in order to meet the water needs for growing.

Next, you need to regularly water the indoor and outdoor plants. Just soak the soil for the outdoor plants at the base on numerous occasions in a day. Hardened soil will take a couple of good douses until it has been well-hydrated. Do the same thing for potted plants. Give the soil a chance to have a full soak, and if possible, get the whole plant wet too, so as to cool it down. To ensure that the soil moisture level for the indoor plant is right, put the pot in a plate of water.

After adequate watering, cut off the sunburnt or dead flowers and leaves. If not, your plant will be wasting nutrients to revive the burnt parts. The goal is that the plant will spend that energy on healthy parts where it is needed.

After you have finished this procedure, add mulch to the base of the plants. This is important to shield the soil and roots from the sun and keep them hydrated. Especially for any plants that often get dehydrated in your garden.

Don’t add much fertilizer to sunburnt plant without leaves. In fact, you should use half the quantity of fertilizer that you used to add prior to the sun damage. Or you can continue using the same quantity of fertilizer, but only apply it every now and again. For instance, if you normally apply it every week, then just apply it every 3 weeks. You can always increase the amount and frequency of the fertilizer as your plants start to grow again.

Conclusion

If you are stressed about your indoor plants that you recently moved outdoors, keep an eye over it to avoid the sunburn. If they are already sunburnt, try the tips in this article to revive them.
