In February-March or September-October of the second year, the holes were opened according to the row spacing of 40-60 cm, and one plant was planted in each hole, compacted with soil and watered.

3. Field management: the transplant must be watered 2-3 times after survival. Loosen the soil, weed 3-4 times a year, and combine with soil cultivation. Fertilize 1-2 times each in spring and autumn.

Planting techniques and matters needing attention of golden cherry

I. planting techniques

1. Soil

Golden cherry is not strict on soil, generally loose, fertile and rich in organic matter sandy soil is better, avoid heavy clay and saline-alkali soil, pot soil is generally garden soil, rotten leaf soil and other mixed medium, drainage is better.

2. Light and temperature

Golden cherry likes a warm growing environment and requires plenty of light. Raise golden cherry, you can put it in a sunny place, but you need to avoid sun exposure in summer and keep the temperature between 15 ℃ and 35 ℃.

3. Watering

Golden cherry likes a moist growth environment and needs more watering to keep the soil moist during the peak growth period and flowering period. In spring, appropriate more watering can promote the growth of branches and leaves; in summer, evaporation is large, and more watering can replenish water; winter is a dormant period, watering less, just keep the soil moist and not dry. Be careful not to water the leaves.

4. Fertilization

Golden cherry prefers fertilizer, except that it needs base fertilizer at the time of planting and liquid fertilizer every half a month. Apply one thick fertilizer in early spring and one thin fertilizer in autumn. Applying a mature thin fertilizer and water during the winter dormancy period will help to survive the winter. Be careful not to apply fertilizer during flowering.

II. Points for attention

1. Pruning

The golden cherry needs to be pruned frequently. Pruning the over-long branches, withered branches and dense branches is helpful to the growth of the golden cherry. After the golden cherry blossoms, it needs to cut off the residual flowers and some branches, which can prolong the flowering period. Trimmed into a variety of shapes, more ornamental.

2. Diseases and insect pests

Golden cherry will have diseases such as powdery mildew and leaf spot and insect pests such as red spiders and aphids, which need to be detected and controlled in time.

The mode of reproduction of golden cherry

1. Sowing seeds

It is said that it is difficult for golden cherry seeds to survive after they are planted, so not many people are cultivated in this way.

2. Cuttage

Using the small buds on the healthy mother without disease, the small buds will wither when they are cut and placed for too long, so it is not easy to grow into a plant. The cut can be inserted into plant ash to prevent root decay. Insert into the soil and adjust the temperature to about 24 degrees at room temperature. Keep the nutritious soil moist. This method can be used every season as long as the temperature and moisture conditions are stable, but the temperature should not be too high, otherwise the roots will rot and the plants will grow slowly if they are too low. Considering the climate, it is most convenient to operate in the spring and autumn season.

3. Ramet

The branchlets separated from the maternal roots can be taken out alone to survive. The branch is cut off from the place where it is connected to the mother and planted on another substrate, so that it can survive independently.

4. Pressing strip

Choose the old branch to press the strip. Observe the branches of the mother body, the branches that have been growing for a long time are buried in the soil and wet the soil with a spray can. After growing for a period of time, the plant will take root on its own, and then cut it off from its mother with a knife, carry out water-light maintenance, and then survive.
