The three-year-old niece knows what meat is, and the 20-year-old cousin doesn't know what plum blossom looks like. All the families of Chlorophytum and Chloranthus are raising, and everyone is boasting about the succulent cacti. As a traditional flower in China, Meilan, Zhuju and chrysanthemum gradually fade out of people's sight. So, today, Huahua wants to solemnly introduce our four gentlemen of flowers, and let them return to our vision.

1. Plum Blossom

Watering:

The plum blossom of potted plants should be watered dry and wet, following the principle of not dry and not watered, and watered thoroughly. If you haven't watered for a long time, the branches and leaves will be withered. Don't use large amount of water at one time. It's easy to cause a lot of leaves and even death. You can use small amount of water first, wait for two or three days, then use large amount of water, and let it recover slowly.

Winter maintenance management:

After plum leaves fall in winter, move it to a cold room without ice, or put it on a low-temperature balcony, and pay attention to opening windows for ventilation, so that it can pass through a period of low-temperature stimulation. At the same time, strengthen the management of water and fertilizer, spray water around the branches and flowerpots every day, keep the air moist.

You are not sick.

The empty valley is secluded, enjoying itself alone, fragrant, elegant and affectionate. It is for the world's sages

Plum blossom

Cengkonggu gave birth to Youlan. The most fascinating thing about orchid is its seclusion. Because it grows in the deep valley, all of them have a beautiful and fragrant posture, which is gentle and plain. Orchid's seclusion is not only a hermit's temperament, but also a good quality of not seeking official career, not seeking fame and reputation, but only being magnanimous.

Plum blossom

Key points of orchid maintenance:

Temperature:

Generally speaking, the suitable growth temperature of orchid is 25 ~ 30 ℃, and the temperature of different varieties of orchid is slightly different.

Plum blossom

Moisture:

Watering is one of the important links in orchid cultivation and management. The ancients believed that those who were just learning how to raise orchids must "accumulate three years' work" in watering. It can be seen that watering orchids is a profound knowledge. There are no certain rules to follow in watering, which should be different according to weather, season, variety and other factors.

Plum blossom

Soil:

You need to choose a tile pot for orchid. The basin with a diameter of about 25 cm can be planted with 2-3 clusters. Pot soil can be made up of 5 parts of rotten leaf soil, 3 parts of compost soil, 2 parts of coarse sand, 2 parts of rotten leaf soil, 1 part of river sand and 1 part of dried cow manure.

The holes at the bottom of the basin are covered with small pieces of plastic window screens to prevent ants from building nests and damaging the roots of orchids, and the tiles are padded to facilitate drainage. Then spread 1.5-2CM thick mountain mud debris. Then put a layer of culture soil to screen the residue, and put the fine culture soil on it.

3. bamboo

Light and frivolous

Empty screen wind on the moon, natural and unrestrained life, light and thin, is for the humble gentleman.

Plum blossom

The stem node of Zeng bamboo represents indomitable spirit, its emptiness and modest mind. Its Xiao Shu represents the extraordinary and refined temperament. It has not only the iron bone of plum blossom which is cold and lofty, but also the noble and clean blue color.

Plum blossom

Maintenance points:

Bamboo is generally cultivated outdoors, so it's better to have a yard. It doesn't matter if there's no yard. You can plant it on the balcony. It's also a beautiful scenery line. The flowers and flowers below will introduce the maintenance methods of potted bamboo to you:

Plum blossom

Moisture:

Bamboo likes to be wet and afraid of standing water. After the basin is filled, the water should be poured thoroughly for the first time, and then the basin soil should be kept moist. Do not water too much, or it will rot easily. If the basin soil is short of water, the bamboo leaves will curl. At this time, water it in time, and the bamboo leaves will expand again. In rainy days, do not drench or collect water to prevent root rot.

Plum blossom

Fertilizer:

Bamboo likes fertilizer, but potted bamboo can't fertilize more. The potted bamboo fertilizer is mainly organic fertilizer mixed into the potted soil when potting. After the bamboo survives, it should be applied properly, "thin fertilizer should be applied frequently", and 0.5% urea or 1.0% compound fertilizer should be applied in spring and summer water. In particular, less application of nitrogen fertilizer is beneficial to dwarf bamboo. It is not suitable to apply fertilizer in the long bamboo period.

Plum blossom

Pruning:

To keep the old and the young, the dense and the sparse, the weak and the strong. When changing pots every year, the dead branches should be removed properly to keep the plant beautiful.

4. chrysanthemum

Beautiful but not delicate

Ling Shuang is a recluse in the world.

Plum blossom

In the slanting sun, by the side of the low fence, a cluster of flowers and chrysanthemums are proudly open, not afraid of the cold, not afraid of the wind and frost. Qingli elegant, fragrant, chrysanthemum proud frost Ling cold, a proud body, has been the spiritual symbol of both scholars and Confucianism.

Plum blossom

Key points of chrysanthemum maintenance:

Moisture:

The potted chrysanthemum should be watered in proper time to prevent excessive water from causing the chrysanthemum not to bloom. In the morning and evening, spray water on the leaves.

Plum blossom

Fertilizer:

Chrysanthemum likes fertilizer, but improper fertilization is easy to cause the plant to grow in vain and the plant height and leaves are sparse. The base fertilizer is mainly P and K fertilizer. Fertilization should not be carried out too early.

Take heart in time:

Timely removal of the terminal bud can promote the germination of the lateral branches, but also can effectively control the height of the plant.

Plum blossom

Timely thinning:

In the growth period of chrysanthemum, many axillary buds will sprout. You need to remove them with your fingers in time to prevent the consumption of nutrients. In the pregnancy period, you need to remove the redundant buds in time and only keep the buds at the top of the branches.

Maintenance of Chrysanthemum

It's easy to raise a lot of meat and a lot of pothos.

But the traditional flowers are slowly declining

Will you keep a pot next spring?
