By Angela Wright


Curcumas are extremely beautiful to look at because they are simple but sophisticated. Now, if one is interested in obtaining the curcuma flower, the good news is that they are pretty easy to grow if one puts in some effort. So for those interested in this, then one will need to take consideration of these things.

Now, it is very important to take note of the type of environment that this plant really thrives in, which is a place with very humid and hot temperature. This means that it would definitely die if it is exposed to freezing weather or frost. If one lives in a country that has cold winters, then an alternative to actual sunlight would be artificial sunlight.

If one wants to grow these flowers, then he or she must first understand that it has to be kept moist. That said, the soil also has to be moist in order for it to grow in a good environment. If ever one notices that the soil is a bit too dry, then he or she has to put it under some partial shade so that it will moisten.

While taking care of the moistened soil, one also has to start putting a lot of organic matter such as compost into the soil. This will allow the soil to become healthier so that it can make the plant strong. Of course, it still must be watered regularly so that it does not dehydrate under the summer sun and the harsh heat.

If ever one notices that the clay level or the sand is excessively high in the soil, then one should add more compost to it. This will balance out the sand and clay levels preventing the drying of the soil. While doing this, one should also fertilize the soil with some all purpose fertilizer based on the directions.

Now, as per different season, the treatment of the plant has to be different wherein the fertilizing has to be done during the summer time. During autumn time, one has to prune the plant to make sure that it is nice and thin. After autumn would be winter time which is a time to ensure that the plant stays in a hot environment indoors under an artificial LED light.

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.

In order for one to be able to grow these flowers, one has to first know about these flowers. They are actually not that hard to grow as long as the environment is ideal for its growth. So all one would have to do is take into consideration the tips given here and one will be able to let his or her curcumas grow well.
