Help with my potted plants...?

Question

I bought 3 beautiful flower plants a couple weeks ago. (I forgot the name of them.) I planted them in pots, and now all three have stopped blooming. The leaves look great but no more blooms. Does anyone know what I did wrong?

I keep the plants outside. The directions said they need indirect sunlight, so I've kept them on my porch. It also said to keep the dirt moist, which I've done. One of the plants was some type of lily; the others look like daisies, but they aren't.

Answer 1

You didn't do anything wrong. Just cut the old blooms off, keep it water and fed regularly and wait for the new ones. Look for new growth and buds as time passes.

Answer 2

You need to provide a lot more information than this. Were they inside or outside plants? It may also be that they only bloom once a year, and you happened to get them at their peak. Also, by repotting them, you gave them more room to grow, and sometimes plants will bloom more in smaller pots, even though they need the space. That's especially true with plants like African Violets. They could even be a little disturbed by the repotting, and could come out of it soon. It's all going to depend on the plant.

Answer 3

Usually, plants are stressed out when they first get moved from one place to another, so you probably should have watered them. Also get some powdered plant food. Mix some in a gallon of water. I keep mine in a recycled gallon water container. Ask your store about the plant food. I use Miracle -Gro, but I'm sure others will do just fine. I put this in a spray bottle, and spray them about once a week. Hope this helps.

Really need much more information.
