Triangulated plum is a common flower in life, which has high ornamental value. We can raise it in many areas. How can triangular plum survive the winter?

1. Overwintering place

Triangular plum is not cold-resistant, and when the temperature drops to six to eight degrees, the conservation site needs to be transferred. Triangular plum dew ground can not survive the winter, put in the outdoor sunny shelter, back against the north wall built by the double-layer plastic shed can survive the winter. Or put in the closed south balcony, put 40-80cm shelter from the wind to the sun, it is safer to survive the winter, if you can bag and keep warm.

3. Overwintering management

(1) trim bundles

Before moving indoors, trim the plum to retain the main branches and some flowering branches to reduce the consumption of nutrients.

(2) stop fertilizer and control water.

In winter, when the temperature is low and the water evaporates slowly, the watering is reduced and the basin soil is kept dry. Stop fertilization to prevent the temperature after entering the room is higher and the vegetative growth is vigorous again, and the cold tolerance is weakened.

Triangular plum in winter will enter a short dormant period, the phenomenon of fallen leaves, dormant leaves as far as possible not to water, the soil is too dry can pour a small amount of (warm) water to the edge of the basin.

(3) Control aphids

When the plant is moved indoors in winter, aphids and insect pests are very easy to occur before falling leaves, which need to be controlled in time.

4. increase temperature, ventilate and replenish light.

After moving to the room, put the plant in a place with good ventilation, sufficient sunshine and suitable temperature, and pay attention to window ventilation at ordinary times to avoid muggy environment.

5. Time to leave the room

Triangular plum should come out of the room late. In late March, the triangular plum in the balcony sprouted new buds with the rise of temperature, and some of Ching Ming Festival already had flower buds differentiating. If they leave the room at this time, the flower buds cannot blossom in May due to freezing. Therefore, they should not leave the room until the minimum temperature is stable at 12-15 degrees, and leave the room from April to May. After coming out of the room, it is necessary to trim the dead branches, useless branches and beautify the plant shape.
