How to raise the happiness tree

Happiness tree is native to Taiwan, Guangdong, Hainan, Guangxi, Guizhou, Yunnan and other places, as well as India, Philippines, Bhutan and other countries. Sex like high temperature, humid, sunny environment, high temperature, fear of cold, should be moist, avoid drying, born in valley or flat sparse forest, cultivation should be loose, fertile, good drainage, rich in organic matter loam and sandy loam.

Culture methods and matters needing attention of Happiness Tree

1. Soil

Happiness trees like soil that is loose and fertile, well drained and rich in humus. The soil configuration of the happiness tree bought directly from the outside is generally pastoral soil + rotten leaf soil + mature organic fertilizer + river sand, which is mixed according to 5-15-3-1-1-1. But now perlite or vermiculite is mostly added to the soil to avoid soil hardening.

2. Moisture

Happiness trees like humid environment, during the growth period not only to ensure a high environmental humidity, but also need to maintain a certain amount of soil moisture, but in spring, bud germination and shoot growth process, to properly control moisture to avoid excessive branch growth.

In spring, water is watered every 2-3 days. When the temperature is high in summer and autumn, water is watered once every 1-2 days. In winter, water is properly controlled and water is watered once every 7-7 days. When watering, pay attention to the weather conditions, choose sunny days to water, cloudy days do not water. In addition, in the dry and hot season, spray water to the plant every day to maintain a certain humidity, so as to prevent the leaf water from evaporating and yellowing.

3. Temperature

The happiness tree likes a warm, humid environment, and the suitable temperature for growth is between 20 and 30 degrees. When the environment exceeds 30 degrees, it is necessary to properly cover the temperature, increase the environment and foliar spray, or move it to a cool and ventilated place. When the temperature drops below ten degrees, move the happiness tree into the shed. During the overwintering period, the indoor temperature should not be lower than 8 degrees, and the lowest temperature should not be less than 5 degrees, so as to avoid cold injury or fallen leaves.

4. Humidity

Happiness tree likes the humid environment, the air humidity is generally maintained at 70% to 80%, the well-ventilated toilet humidity is very good! When placed indoors, you can often spray plants with slightly warmer water to keep the leaves beautiful and increase the humidity of the air.

5. Lighting

Happiness trees are light-loving, slightly shade-tolerant, and can grow in full-day or semi-shady environments.

The happiness tree has different performance in different growth stages, the seedling stage is more shade-tolerant, shading can grow well; adult plants had better be placed in front of indoor windows with sufficient light, sometimes full light, sometimes scattered light. If the happiness tree grows in a dark environment for a long time, it is easy to cause fallen leaves.

6. Fertilization

Every April, when the temperature rises, the happiness tree will be moved to outdoor breeding, combined with turning the basin, adding a certain compound fertilizer to the soil; the rotten liquid fertilizer will die once a month in the peak growing season, and the phosphorus and potassium fertilizer will be applied once after the Mid-Autumn Festival to enhance the cold resistance of the plant and ensure its safe passage through the winter.

It should be noted that fertilization should be stopped when the summer temperature is higher than 32 ℃ and the winter temperature is lower than 12 ℃. Because at this temperature, the happiness tree grows slowly, the absorption capacity of fertilizer is poor, fertilizer stays in the basin soil for a long time, which is easy to cause fertilizer damage.

7. 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.

8. 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.

Striping Propagation of Happiness Tree

Striping propagation is the most labor-saving method, but the disadvantage is that improper striping can not produce new plants and it is difficult for the branches to grow.

1. Crimping time

Spring is the growing season of the happiness tree every year, and pressing at this time can improve the survival rate. In addition, if the striping is not successful, cut the branch in time, and the branch can grow again.

2. Crimping method

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.

The flowering period of Happiness Tree

The flowering period of the happiness tree is different in different environments. The flowering period of the happiness tree usually changes from May to September every year, and it does not bloom very often in the north. Generally speaking, the happiness tree sown and propagated will grow to blossom for a relatively long time. The happiness tree propagated by cuttings and striping will blossom in 2-3 years. The happiness tree blossoms, the flowers are relatively small, the color is light and elegant, the flowers are yellow and light yellow, there is no fragrance. But it gives people a sense of closeness.

The happiness tree is a kind of plant that can produce a sense of intimacy very well. not only its name is very affinity, but even the flowers are yellow flowers with great affinity, so it is undoubtedly very appropriate to plant happiness trees in the family, and it is not difficult to cultivate happiness trees.
