Eucharis is generally not a fussy plant and blooms every year even with minimal care. And with some effort, you can get a plant of rare beauty with a huge number of fragrant inflorescences.
If you leave a lot of bulbs in a large pot, then the numerous shiny leaves will look especially impressive. True, in this case the plant will require quite a lot of space. With proper care, Eucharis (or Amazon lily) is rarely affected by disease. Pests also rarely annoy the plant, but their occurrence cannot be ruled out.
Fighting diseases and pests of indoor eucharis plants with photos
It is worth noting that the tropical plant is quite hardy and has strong immunity, which protects it from diseases and all kinds of pests.
However, eucharis reacts sharply to improper care with the appearance of problems: it can be affected by diseases or pests. Excessively dry air, proximity to heating devices, and lack of moisture can lead to the appearance of the following pests:
- Aphid.
- Shield.
- Spider mite.
- Thrips.
If any of the listed parasites are detected, you must first wash the leaves with soapy water. After this, the plant is treated with systemic insecticides, for example, Actellik. The product should be used twice with an interval of 7-10 days, following the recommendations on the package.
Another pest, the bulb mite, appears as a result of systematic waterlogging of the soil. You can find it by looking at the bases of the leaves at the edge of the soil and digging slightly deeper. These small white parasites damage the plant by eating the bulbs and stems from the inside, preventing them from developing. The control measure is to treat the plant with acaricides (Akarin) and completely replace the soil.
To preserve the plant, experts recommend regularly inspecting it for the following damage: spots on leaves, cuttings, yellowing of leaves, loss of elasticity, etc.
ICD - pharyngitis:
- J02 - acute pharyngitis
- J02.0 - streptococcal pharyngitis
- J02.8 - acute pharyngitis caused by other specified pathogens
- J02.9 - acute pharyngitis, unspecified
- J31.2 - chronic pharyngitis
- J31.1 - chronic nasopharyngitis
Pharyngitis is rarely isolated as a separate disease; the diagnosis is usually acute respiratory viral disease (ARVI).
ARVI is a general name; the doctor usually specifies how exactly ARVI manifests itself.
This may be rhinitis (runny nose), pharyngitis (red throat), nasopharyngitis (inflammation of the nose and throat), etc.1,2
It is important not to confuse pharyngitis with tonsillitis.
To do this, let's understand the structure of the pharynx and oral cavity.
Reproduction of Eucharis
Cissus flower.
Description, features, types and care of cissus Eucharis can be propagated by transplantation, using grown bulbs from a pot. This method is very convenient, new bulbs take root well and grow quickly. They are called children. Several small ones are separated from the mother bulb and planted in separate pots with 3-5 bulbs in each. All sections are sprinkled with crushed charcoal or activated carbon. Planting is carried out to a depth of up to 5 cm. Group planting of bulbs is done so that the plant blooms faster
After planting, in the first few weeks, carefully and little by little water the bulbs in the pots, and after a month you can see the first leaves of the new plant. Young eucharis are cared for in the same way as adult plants
If you follow all the rules for growing, the Amazon lily will delight you more than once a year with its beautiful snow-white flowers and bright, juicy foliage. A simple method of propagation allows you to easily propagate plants and replenish your flower garden with new specimens.
Soil preparation
When flowering, fertilizing is carried out with solutions of mineral substances. The concentration is created slightly lower than that proposed by the manufacturer. The use of fertilizers of organic origin is allowed. In winter, fertilizers are not applied to the soil.
Lily growth depends on the choice of soil. For good development, an earthen layer is created that has water-air permeability.
When purchasing in specialized stores, soil for the amaryllis family is purchased. Self-production uses elements of earthen and leaf compost, peat, river sand, proportion: 2-1-1.
Growing and care
Fatsia flower: home care and methods of propagation
At home, it is better to place eucharis on eastern or western windows, since the plant does not tolerate midday sun.
Eucharis is a heat-loving plant, so when you take it out to the balcony in the summer, do not forget to bring it indoors with the onset of cold August nights.
In winter, the optimal temperature is +16-20 degrees. If the room temperature is too warm or cold, the plant can only produce small, frail flowers.
If you provide the plant with proper care, the eucharis will delight you with flowers at the end of summer, and after a few months the plant will bloom again.
Eucharis prefers loose, nutritious soil.
For successful cultivation, the plant must be properly watered. Eucharis likes rare but abundant watering: it is enough to water it 2-3 times a month, trying to ensure that the earthen ball absorbs as much water as possible, but before summer and autumn flowering the earthen ball must be dried: for this, watering is reduced, but not allowed wilting of leaves.
In general, eucharis loves cleanliness, so it is washed in a warm shower, after which the pot is left in the bathroom, waiting until the excess water drains.
In summer, the plant is regularly sprayed.
If not properly cared for, the plant suffers from being attacked by spider mites, whiteflies, and scale insects. But most often the pests that can be found on the plant are mealybugs and scale insects. Then the insect is either removed with a stick, or the petioles and leaves are washed with tobacco infusion, adding green soap to it.
But by inspecting the plant regularly, you can avoid the appearance of pests.
Eucharis transplant
Many people believe that eucharis does not tolerate transplantation well and does not bloom for a long time after it.
But, following all the rules of transplantation, you can get a peduncle of a young plant in the first year, and the mother plant can also give a peduncle.
When is the best time to do a transplant? Usually it is produced once every 3-4 years. It is better to do this during the rest period. It is advisable to preserve the earthen ball during transplantation. The main feature of transplanting eucharis is that the children should not be separated from the mother plant unnecessarily, since if they are planted one at a time, they will not be able to bloom for a long time.
For planting, take shallow but wide pots filled with a nutrient mixture into which the bulbs are planted. The optimal depth for planting is 4-5 cm. The transplanted plant is rarely watered. Feeding can begin 2 weeks after transplantation.
Reproduction
Eucharis reproduces by baby bulbs.
If your bulb is ready for planting, then it is better to plant it in March. When planting a bulb, keep in mind that the mother plant produces daughter bulbs, so it is better to take a wide pot for planting. To root the plant, you can use bottom heating: this will avoid the process of rotting.
During the period of plant development, the substrate should be moderately moist: for this, watering should be done once every 3-4 days, and it is useful to spray the leaves.
As soon as the tops of new leaves appear on the bulb (usually this happens after 1-1.5 months), once every two weeks it is necessary to fertilize with mineral and organic fertilizers.
Since eucharis is quite thermophilic, the temperature during the growth period should not fall below 18 degrees. When temperatures change, leaves may drop and bulbs may freeze.
The appearance of daughter bulbs indicates that the eucharis is ready to flower.
The lack of flowering indicates that the plant was not provided with a sufficient period of rest.
Tips for flower growers
In order to provide the plant with air access to the roots and to allow water to drain freely after watering, widen the hole in the flower pot.
It is not worth wiping dust from the leaves with a wet cloth, as the resulting dirt clogs the stomata of the plant, thereby making it difficult for the euaris to breathe. It is better to first remove the dust with a soft, dry cloth, and then wipe with a damp cloth.
To prevent brownish spots from forming on the plant during flowering, stop spraying, reduce watering after flowering, and stop feeding.
In order for the plant to please you with its appearance, you need to prevent the shedding of old leaves and the growth of new ones.
In summer, the plant can be taken out into the fresh air.
Pests attacking a flower
Eucharis, like all indoor plants, is subject to attack by insects. They suck the juice from the leaves, making their surface limp and dull. With prolonged infection, the flower dies. In a room with dry air, eucharis can be attacked by scale insects. This pest attacks plants with weak immunity , which were not properly cared for. Also, in unsuitable conditions, other pests can attack eucharis, such as thrips, whiteflies and spider mites. There are known cases of Eucharis being infected with mealybugs.
Chemical methods of control
- Treatment with special means: “Fitoverm” and “Aktellik” will help you get rid of scale insects.
- To combat thrips, all flowers and buds are plucked, and then the plant is treated with an insecticide (for example, Fitoverm and Decis).
- To remove the whitefly, you must first take the plant to a cooler place, and then spray it with Actellik solution.
- The destruction of spider mites involves mechanical cleaning of the plant followed by treatment with Actellik.
Folk remedies
Pest control using traditional methods is considered no less effective. For example, garlic infusion will help you quickly get rid of whiteflies. You can say goodbye to other pests in the early stages of infection by mechanically cleaning the plant. To do this, eucharis leaves are wiped with a sponge dipped in a solution of laundry soap.
Prevention
Attention! High temperature and dry air contribute to the appearance of harmful insects. In order to avoid troubles, you need to maintain a comfortable temperature, follow the rules of watering and maintain the necessary humidity in the room where the eucharis grows.
What promotes flowering
Alocasia - home care, description of Polly and Amazon varieties
The flowering of this amazing tropical flower, as previously mentioned, will be facilitated by specific care. And if you plan to wait for white flowers at home, then it is worth familiarizing yourself with the needs of the crop in order to create the most optimal growing conditions for it.
Place for a flower
Initially, you need to find a suitable place for eucharis. Like many indoor plants, this flower is light-loving. However, the sun's rays, especially at midday, falling directly on the foliage can leave burns on it. Window sills of western and eastern windows are ideal.
Temperature conditions
This flower is quite thermophilic. Therefore, depending on the stage of plant development, the temperature should be:
- +18 degrees and above – during active periods of growth and flowering (spring and summer);
- from +13 to +16 degrees – in winter.
A sharp change in temperature will affect the size of the flowers - they will be much smaller. Although the plant usually blooms with rather large flowers (see photo).
Watering
Another reason why eucharis does not bloom at home is improper watering.
Indeed, for most bulbous plants, which include the Amazon lily, care in terms of watering should be done with special attention
Eucharis flowers should be watered sparingly. It is necessary to water in such a way as to prevent either over-moistening or over-drying of the substrate in the pot. The top layer of soil can be used as a signal that the plant needs watering.
For irrigation, it is recommended to use soft, settled water. Melt and rain water are also excellent.
As for the dormant stage, watering should be reduced at this time. As a rule, this period lasts about a month and begins immediately after the last inflorescence fades.
For a flower, the dormant stage occurs in semi-dry soil conditions. That is, throughout the entire period, the upper half of the soil in the pot should remain dry. You need to water lightly, avoiding excess moisture in the soil.
Sometimes Eucharis leaves may turn yellow. If only 1-2 leaves turn yellow, don't worry. But if almost all the foliage simultaneously begins to acquire a yellowish tint, wither and dry out, as shown in the photo, watering should be limited. Often, such signs appear when there is excessive watering, sometimes when the soil dries out and during sudden changes in temperature.
Humidity
In this regard, caring for eucharis grown at home is simpler. The flower only needs spraying during the growing season. However, it is necessary to carry out this procedure very carefully to prevent water from getting on the white flowers. Otherwise, they will be affected by spotting, which will significantly reduce the decorative value of the plant.
Transplants
At home, beautiful eucharis are transplanted extremely rarely. These flowers are very sensitive to this kind of procedure and do not tolerate disturbances in growing conditions. Including changes in the earthen coma.
It is recommended to transplant this representative of indoor flowers once every 3-4 years. As a rule, during this period of time a transplant will already become necessary. Since in 3-4 years the pot is already completely filled with young eucharis children, it becomes increasingly difficult for an adult plant to feed.
It is recommended to transplant the plant into a new container in March. The new pot must have drainage holes. The bottom of this vessel should be lined with a fairly thick layer of drainage, and soil should be poured on top. For eucharis, a loose substrate with a neutral composition and good permeability is suitable. At home, you can make your own growing mixture from:
- leaf soil;
- sand;
- compost;
- loam.
It is necessary to plant the bulb of an adult plant without deepening its base deep into the soil, as shown in the photo.
Reproduction
You also need to decide what you are going to do with the plant children (pictured). When replanting, you can plant them in separate pots, thus multiplying the flower. But if you want to achieve lush flowering of an adult plant, then you should transplant it into a new pot along with the children. The mother plant will be pleased with abundant flowering if the pot is slightly cramped and properly cared for.
Feeding
Another answer to the question: “Why doesn’t eucharis bloom?” is the lack of fertilizing
It is especially worth paying attention to such procedures during the growing season, and feeding them with complex organic and mineral fertilizers every 2 weeks. Feeding should be stopped after the plant blooms for about 3-4 weeks.
Popular varieties
The most common types of Amazonian lily for cultivation are:
- Grandiflora is a plant with oval leaves on long stalks that taper towards the base. Such eucharis blooms with white buds 10 cm in diameter 2 times a year, usually in early spring and late summer;
- Sandera is a plant with a large peduncle (40 cm), white flowers with a yellow core. The bulb is similar in shape to an egg. The leaves are wide, oval, smooth;
- Eucharis snow-white is a very delicate species with white inflorescences in the form of umbrellas. The flower petals have a yellowish tint at the ends of the petals and at the core;
- mastersa - a flower with a bulb about 5 cm in diameter, has slightly rounded long leaves. It blooms in early spring with umbrellas, usually 1 or 2 flowers in a peduncle;
- Eucharis toothless is distinguished by triangular-shaped leaves and blooms in umbrellas of 6-8 flowers. Each bulb of this subspecies produces 4 cuttings.
Treatment of diseases
At the slightest deviation, the normal functioning of eucharis is disrupted - in the photo you can see the main diseases associated with an imbalance of watering and spraying.
First of all, the inflorescences are destroyed - the plant does not bloom for a long period - up to a year. Then the diseases spread to the root system, which dries out or, conversely, rots. At the same time, the leaves turn yellow and quickly fall off, normal reproduction becomes impossible, the number of shoots decreases, and after a certain time the eucharis dies.
Therefore, in order to get a beautiful flower at home, which can be seen in the photo, it will need very high-quality care.
You will need to frequently inspect the leaves and root system, identifying diseases in the early stages, and regularly replant and propagate in order to prevent depletion of the Amazon lily.
Of course, caring for it will take a lot of time and effort, but the result will be worth it in any case - after all, you will not be able to see such extraordinary delicate beauty anywhere else.
Structure of the pharynx
The pharynx is divided into 3 sections:
- upper (nasopharynx)
- middle (oropharynx)
- lower (larynx)
This division is very conditional, because There are no clear boundaries between departments. When inflammation occurs, it rarely happens that the inflammatory process is localized in one section; usually infectious processes spread and move throughout all sections of the pharynx5,7
As can be seen in the picture below, the oropharynx is composed of the velopharyngeal arches, the uvula and the soft palate.
Pharyngitis usually affects:
- temples
- tongue
- soft sky
- posterior wall of the pharynx
The doctor uses a spatula to completely examine the pharynx. It is needed to improve visibility of the back of the throat.
The palatine tonsils also become inflamed with pharyngitis, because it is impossible to limit the inflammation process. This widespread nature of inflammation in pharyngitis distinguishes it from tonsillitis, where the tonsils are predominantly affected.
Amazonian lily eucharis. Home care
Eucharis (or Eucharis - Eucharis) is translated from Greek as “most pleasant”, “graceful”. The name more than matches the appearance of the flower, which many call the Amazon lily.
A lovely bulbous plant with a snow-white umbrella of large and fragrant flowers, very similar in appearance to daffodils - this is eucharis. Home care is not too difficult. It blooms for the first time in October and until mid-winter. The second time - in the spring. In March and August, when the eucharis is resting, it is usually replanted, separating the children from the bulb. The newly planted onion should be stored in a warm place and watered moderately until it germinates.
Types of Eucharis
The large-flowered eucharis - Eucharis grandiflora - is magnificent - from three to six simply huge flowers on a peduncle more than half a meter high, blooming twice a year. The pride of the amaryllis family. Ten species of this plant are cultivated, the large-flowered one being the most common. Eucharis candida (white eucharis) is very good, as well as Eucharis mastersii (masterza eucharis), Eucharis subdentata (toothless eucharis), Eucharis sanderi (sandera eucharis) - multi-flowered. This is how different eucharis is. You can’t take your eyes off the photo, but even the most successful one cannot fully convey its charm.
Origin
These beautiful flowers were born in the tropics of South America. The high humidity of the air in the forests of Colombia and especially in the equatorial Amazon region - these are the climatic features that eucharis expects from our apartments. Home care will ensure flowering. There were cases when, in hot and humid summers, this Amazonian lily bloomed for the third time in a year.
Peculiarities
Year-round decorativeness is the main advantage that eucharis fully possesses. Caring for it at home helps it not to shed its beautiful shiny leaves for the winter, huge, slightly wrinkled, with beautifully protruding veins. It may lose a leaf or two during winter sleep, but this, firstly, is imperceptible among the dark green abundance, and secondly, it is quite natural. It’s bad for it if you water it too much, then the leaf fall is total. When the eucharis wakes up, new leaves are quickly added to the existing ones: at first they stick out in all directions like a hedgehog, rolled into tubes, and gradually unfurl, this is a very beautiful and touching sight.
Eucharis - home care
Some gardeners complain: eucharis does not bloom! But in order for it to bloom abundantly and on time, so that rot does not occur on the roots and bulbs, the plant must be watered correctly. You can also advise novice gardeners to always check for a drainage hole at the bottom of the pot. Without it, not only eucharis, but also chlorophytum will not survive.
Throughout the entire period of growth and flowering, the Amazon lily should be watered sparingly, like other bulbous plants. Avoid overmoistening. Between waterings, be sure to allow the soil to dry out significantly; wet soil should not be watered under any circumstances. Eucharis leaves are so huge, they quickly gather dust, and therefore love to be washed in the shower. Then you can water the whole plant. The main thing is that water does not get on the flowers - they will turn yellow. And eucharis does not bloom because the pot is too large. Almost the entire surface of the earthen coma should be filled with children. Therefore, it is not replanted as often as other indoor plants. Once every three years. These are the two main mistakes that eucharis shows us with its non-flowering. Care at home strictly requires only two things: proper watering and correct planting of the bulb! It is not hard. And in favorable conditions, eucharis blooms for a long time, often and fragrantly!

Description of the plant
In its natural habitat, Eucharis grows in Central and South America. It is found on the slopes of the eastern Andes mountains, as well as in the humid, shady forest belt of the Amazon River basin, which is why its second name is “Amazon lily.” In the 19th century, Europeans were introduced to this plant. Since then it has been actively bred at home.
The bulbs of an adult eucharis are approximately 5-6 cm in diameter. The foliage of the plant is green, oblong, on oblong thick stems. With proper care, the Amazon lily blooms 2 times a year with buds with a subtle delicate aroma, usually in late summer or early September. Usually there are 3-7 flowers in a rosette, they are quite voluminous, up to 12 cm in cross section. Some gardeners note the similarity with daffodil.

Eucharis home care and photos
This perennial flower from Colombia, South America, with shiny, waxy leaves, belongs to the Amaryllidaceae family (which includes daffodils!). It is sometimes called the Amazon lily or Eucharist. "Eucharist" means "elegant" in Latin and "charm" in Greek. It grows to approximately 45 cm.
The flower can grow on both the light and dark sides of the windowsill. But you shouldn’t keep the plants in the shade all the time. If the window sills are large, then the pots are placed on them
It is important to remember that direct rays of the sun are contraindicated for the flower, because they will destroy the plant; the best position for it is partial shade
We also recommend that you familiarize yourself with the section: Crassula flower - care at home.
Temperature
The required temperature for eucharis is approximate, it should be up to 22 C. In winter, it will also feel comfortable at a temperature of +15-18 o C, but make sure that there are no sudden changes and drafts.
How to water and spray eucharis?
This plant needs infrequent watering, because if it is flooded, it will be quite difficult to save it. It is necessary to monitor the condition of the soil; if it completely begins to dry out, then water it. But you can’t flood the soil, because the bulb will rot. Holes must be made in the pot so that water can leave the container, otherwise the roots will simply rot and the flower cannot be saved. The requirement for watering changes throughout the year: more frequent in the spring-summer period, and in winter much less often, only when the earthen ball dries out.
In the room he needs to create the conditions in which he would grow up in nature; it is because of this that the air humidity must be very high. Spraying is necessary constantly, even more often in the summer. Sometimes the plant needs to wipe the leaves with a damp cloth. Stop spraying as soon as the flower stalk begins to appear.
The flower remains in the dormant stage for a month; this is a very important period. Because it accumulates strength for future growth. As soon as the flowers have faded, the dried flower stalks are removed. When the dormant stage begins and new shoots appear, the plant should be watered as before.
Eucharis: fertilizer
It is advisable to fertilize the flower in the summer. The fertilizing should not contain high levels of nitrogen. As soon as the dormant period begins, fertilizing is stopped immediately.
Eucharis: transplant and care
It is in the dormant stage that it is advisable to replant the flower, but you should know that any incorrect violation of the position of the roots will cause problems in the growth of the plant. Replanting should be once every 3-4 years. It is advisable for Eucharis to purchase a tight container to develop a good root system. The nutrient mixture should consist of peat, humus and sand, and it is advisable to put more drainage at the bottom of each pot.
Eucharis: reproduction
The flower propagates by dividing an adult bush. It is advisable to transplant all the bulbs into separate containers. When the transplant is finished, the eucharis is watered and left untouched for a week. The bulbs should be planted to a depth of half the bulb itself. They will begin to bloom in the same year they were planted. And propagation using seeds is a rather difficult path even for an experienced gardener.
Diseases and pests of eucharis
If you notice that a large number of leaves have turned yellow, then you urgently need to help the plant. You need to carefully examine all the roots of the flower and remove those that are rotten and damaged, and then replant them in new soil. If the roots are healthy, then you just need to remove the yellowed leaves. This must be done immediately, because otherwise the plant may die.
If a flower is kept in a room with dry air for too long, scale insects will appear on it, but they can be controlled using eco-oil or eco-nim.
It should be noted that all parts of the Eucharist flower are poisonous.
In good conditions, indoor eucharis forms a large bush of leaves and produces many daughter bulbs and beautiful snow-white flowers that will delight their owners and their guests.
Caring for eucharis at home is not so troublesome; it is suitable for amateurs, as well as for beginners. If you have any doubts about purchasing this plant, then feel free to purchase this wonderful and blooming lily that you saw in the photo. But the only problem is that the flower takes up a lot of space in the apartment.
Appearance
Eucharis belongs to the Amaryllis family. This is a bulbous plant with large, long-petioled shiny leaves. In young leaves, the edges curl into tubes along the midrib.
Blooming Amazon lily
For your information! Translated from Greek, “eucharis” means “full of charm,” “pleasant.”
It usually blooms twice during the year - in spring and from October until late winter. Large white flowers with a pleasant aroma are formed on a powerful flower arrow. If eucharis is well cared for, the plant can form several flower stalks from one bulb.
Subtleties of transplantation
During the life cycle of the plant, the root system constantly increases in size and young shoots appear. This leads to the fact that every 2-3 years it needs a transplant, without which the eucharis may simply die.
As a rule, this operation is performed at home in the middle or end of March. First, it is worth inspecting the root system - if its branches are very tangled, they will need to be washed and straightened. This should be done very carefully - like most tropical plants, eucharis has very fragile roots.
If all the roots are neatly straightened and directed downwards, such complex care is not needed, because replanting is replaced by easier transshipment.
If you are in doubt about which method to transfer the plant to another container, you can watch the instructional video. When transplanting, you can also propagate the flower - to do this, it is enough to separate the shoots from it.
Watering
It grows in moderate, moist soil. Excess moisture will destroy the rhizome. During flowering, watering is carried out after the soil has dried to 1/3 of the total volume.
Settled or boiled water is used for irrigation. The leafy part is regularly sprayed, and when flowering is wiped with a wet sponge.
Winter care requires careful attention to watering. After growth comes a period of rest. In a state of sleep, the soil is moistened after drying 2/3 of the volume. It is important for beginning gardeners to remember this. Failure to comply with this requirement will result in loss of flowering.
Caring for Eucharis at home
It is not difficult to care for the Amazon lily; the specifics of its cultivation are as follows.
Soil and flower pot
For the Colombian beauty, it is better to choose narrow and tall pots. To remove excess moisture, which causes the bulbs to rot, there should be several holes at the bottom. In this case, a significant drainage layer of expanded clay or pebbles is required.
An important condition for eucharis flowering is to plant several bulbs in each pot. They are placed in a loose substrate at a depth of five centimeters. This soil should consist of two parts of compost, the same amount of baking powder, a small addition of loam and twice the volume of leaf soil as these components. Compost can be replaced with heather soil or peat.

Temperature, humidity, lighting
Amazon lily is a heat-loving plant. In the summer, she likes temperatures up to 25 degrees, and in winter the temperature can be lowered by a maximum of ten degrees. After all, when the bulb freezes, it rots and the leaves disappear. Drafts and temperature changes are also detrimental to the flower.
Well-lit rooms are suitable for Eucharis, but it is afraid of direct sun. The western and eastern directions of the rooms are the best places for tropical plants. But they can also grow from the north side.
In summer, it is better to expose eucharis to the air.
It is important that it is not exposed to direct sun or raindrops.

Watering a houseplant
The Amazon lily does not like soil that is too wet or dry. It only needs to be watered when the top quarter of the earthen clod dries out. Water for irrigation must be left standing for at least half a day. She shouldn't be cold and harsh.
They practice top and bottom watering of the plant, placing it on a tray with a damp “substrate” of expanded clay. Excess water is poured out. In between flowering periods, it is better to keep the soil mixture moderately dry. At this time, additional illumination of the flowers with a special lamp is practiced. This stimulates further flowering of the tropicana.

Feeding the flower
Feeding of eucharis is carried out only during its growth and flowering. They do this once every two weeks. Ready-made fertilizers are used for flowering indoor plants. The dose is reduced by half from that recommended in the instructions.
Eucharis transplant
The Amazon lily is transplanted during the period of its complete dormancy at the end of winter. These procedures are painful for plants, so it is better to carry them out no more than once every few years. It is advisable to replant a flower only when the pot becomes too small for it.
How to grow eucharis (video)
In this case, lily-friendly handling is used with maximum preservation of the earthen clod. When seating children, select a shallow pot with several drainage holes, and lay a layer of expanded clay on the bottom. In this case, the soil mixture should be similar to the one in which the plant was previously located. It is pre-watered, and after transplantation the moisture should be moderate.
Illumination
This indoor flower grows most favorably on the window sills of the east and west sides of the home. Abundance of lighting ensures rich blooming.
When placed on a balcony, it is important to protect it from drafts and cold wind. In hot weather, protect from direct sunlight and darken.
Pharyngitis in pregnant women
During pregnancy, a woman's body's protective properties decrease. In this regard, the risk of contracting infectious diseases, as well as exacerbation of chronic diseases, greatly increases.
Pregnant women need to carefully monitor their health and prevent diseases: avoid contact with people with respiratory diseases, avoid crowded places, wash your hands, eat regularly and properly.
If you develop acute pharyngitis or exacerbation of chronic pharyngitis, treatment is required. It is not recommended to use drugs that can affect the entire body. They can pass through the placenta to the baby and cause harm to him. To treat pharyngitis, pregnant women are advised to consult a doctor and use saline mouth rinses.
Complications of pharyngitis
Acute pharyngitis usually responds well to treatment. The prognosis for viral pharyngitis is recovery.
Bacterial (streptococcal pharyngitis) can be complicated by the formation of a retropharyngeal abscess, and subsequently have a negative effect on the heart and kidneys, causing endocarditis and glomerulonephritis.
Symptoms of pharyngitis can persist even with proper treatment, if the true cause of pharyngitis is not eliminated. For example, if gastroesophageal reflux disease (damage to the gastrointestinal tract) is not treated, then pharyngitis will constantly remind itself.
Acute pharyngitis can become chronic.
