Happiness Tree, a very happy and auspicious name, makes people can't help but want to raise it at home. Happiness tree is more common in life, and many people like to raise it at home, because it not only has a good meaning, but also has a beautiful shape, so it is especially suitable for viewing at home. So do you know how to breed and prune the happiness tree?

Propagation method of Happiness Tree

1. Cuttage propagation

Choose 1-2-year-old woody branches, about 15-20 cm in length, cut off all the leaves, and the distance between the cut and the stem node is about 0.5 cm. The cut branches are cut directly into the sandy soil, and the depth is 1 stick 3 or 1 stick 2 of the branches. It is too shallow, the branches are not fixed, and it is difficult to take root.

2. Sowing and reproduction

In early March, choose and buy full, dry seeds. Soak the seeds in water for 3 to 4 hours, remove them and dry them. The skin of happiness tree seeds is not very hard, do not soak for too long, so as not to soak the seeds to rot.

The treated seeds will be evenly planted in the soil, each at a certain distance, covered with a thin layer of soil. Then cover the flowerpot with a protective film to ensure enough humidity for the seeds to germinate. After the seeds germinate, take off the film and shade it properly. When there are 4 or 5 leaves in the account book, you can plant them in the pot.

3. Striping propagation

Select the two-year-old branch and peel it at the lower end of the branch, the width of which is 2 to 3 times of the diameter.

Then the ring is wrapped in soil and squeezed into a lump of soil with a diameter of 8cm to 10cm. Then wrap the clod with plastic film and expose a small opening at the upper end to facilitate water supply. Then tie the girdled branches to the stout branches so as not to break the branches and affect their growth.

After three seasons, a relatively complete root system will grow in the autumn, which can be removed and planted in a pot.

How to prune the happiness tree

1. Pick the heart

Picking the heart, as the name implies, is to pinch off the main stem of the happiness tree, or the top of the side branch, by hand, or cut it off with a sharp weapon, in fact, in order to prevent the overgrowth of the branch and promote the branch to sprout and sprout at the bottom. Therefore, picking the heart is also called hitting the top and going to the tip.

2. Wipe your head

To touch the head is to cut off all the upper parts of the plant. generally speaking, this pruning method is aimed at those large flowers, because the large flowers grow too tall and remain unchanged in the family, so they need to be trimmed by wiping their heads. The happiness tree is also the same. If the happiness tree at home grows too high, be cruel and wipe your head to the happiness tree!

3. Thinning cut

Thinning means cutting off the overdense branches when the flowers are too dense, taking off too many leaves and pinching too many flowers. frankly speaking, the pruning of the happiness tree is mainly on the overdense branches and leaves, and the branches of the happiness tree are too dense, which will not only affect its ornamental, but also affect the ventilation conditions of the happiness tree. Thinning should be carried out along the branch extension direction, sparse degree.

How to change the pot of happiness tree

First of all, before changing the basin, we should pour enough water to the happiness tree and fix the basin soil to make it easy to separate the tree from the basin. Then take out the tree together with the soil, transplant it into another large basin prepared in advance, and then enrich the surrounding uses.

Secondly, for the first watering after changing the basin, it must be fully watered. After changing the basin, we should pay attention to the loose soil rich in organic matter, that is, the soil mixed with garden soil, rotten leaf soil, rotten organic fertilizer and river sand, and the soil should also have good drainage.

After that, put the changed happiness tree in the shade for about 4 days and give about an hour of light every day. Wait for the branches and leaves to spread out before doing the usual nursing work.

Finally, the yellow leaves are removed during the growth period to ensure the growth of healthy leaves, and the new branches and buds can also be cut off to promote faster growth.

If the leaves are severely yellowed, the roots can be dug out and exposed, then diluted with potassium permanganate and sprinkled on the roots.

Points for attention in the maintenance of Happiness Tree

1. Avoid frostbite. Summer and winter is the hardest part of the happiness tree, either hot or cold, hot is fine, but when it is cold, the plant is easy to frostbite. Therefore, the degree of happiness should be moved to indoor maintenance in time after winter, and the temperature should be kept above 10 ℃. If the heat preservation measures are improper and the temperature is below 5 ℃ for a long time, it is likely to cause chilling injury and lead to leaf loss.

2. Diseases and insect pests. Happy trees are afraid of freezing in winter and stuffy in summer, and the muggy environment can easily lead to all kinds of diseases and insect pests. Precautions should be taken in time. As soon as you find bugs on the leaves, spray immediately and strengthen ventilation. If the leaves are yellowing and falling off, clean the yellowed leaves in time and spray fungicides.

As mentioned above, although the happiness tree is a kind of foliage plant, it will blossom. However, it does not blossom at a fixed time. It mainly depends on how well you maintain it. If it is well maintained, it will blossom. If it is not maintained well, it is very likely to blossom.
