Mimosa is a very special plant, gently touching the leaves, the top will be rolled up, it looks as if it is shy. It is loved by many people. So how to raise mimosa? What are the matters needing attention in breeding?

First, how to raise mimosa?

It likes to grow in humid places, so it is best to raise it in the living room, but also often maintain the moisture of the basin soil, can not often lack of water, which will directly lead to the yellowing symptoms of mimosa leaves.

Therefore, when watering, it is best to follow the principle of not watering, watering thoroughly, so that it can promote the growth of mimosa, in addition to appropriate fertilization, and then prune after a period of time, because the growth rate of mimosa is relatively fast, if not pruned in time, it may affect the beauty.

2. Culture methods

1. Soil: mimosa does not have high requirements for soil, only general garden soil can be planted, it is best to choose some relatively loose and fertile humus mixed soil, of course, only saprophytic soil or sandy soil is also possible.

two。 Illumination: during the growth of mimosa, adequate sunlight should be guaranteed. Mimosa likes sunshine, and it is best to place it on a sunny balcony or by the window. Full exposure to sunlight has certain benefits to the growth of mimosa. If there is too little sunlight, it may hinder its growth.

3. Temperature: mimosa is suitable for growing in a warm environment, between 20 degrees Celsius and 28 degrees Celsius, and stop growing if the temperature is too low. In winter, because the temperature is too low, it is necessary to water less to avoid freezing damage to the roots. Watering should be watered when the temperature is higher in a day. If the temperature is lower than 10 degrees Celsius, it is best to give certain protective measures.

4. Watering: because mimosa belongs to tropical plants and loves the humid environment very much, we should always keep the basin soil moist, and in summer we should water the basin soil according to the situation of the basin soil, about once a day. Do not let the soil dry, but also often spray water to the plants, and reduce the amount of water to prevent freezing damage in winter.

5. Potted soil: mimosa generally does not need to be changed in that year, but only needs to be irrigated with some fertilizer and water in the maintenance process. Mimosa, which has been maintained for more than two years, can be changed in spring, but there is no need to replace all the soil, generally half to 1/3.

Matters needing attention

1. Anti-freezing: mimosa is a tropical plant, so the growth temperature should not be on the low side, and it is most appropriate to keep the room temperature at 20-28 ℃. Too low temperature will cause mimosa to stop growing, and if it is watered too much at this time, it will cause the roots of mimosa to be frozen. When the temperature is lower than 10 ℃, it needs to be protected.

two。 Pest control: in general, there are few diseases and insect pests in mimosa, and the most common pest is slug. If you find any pest, you can sprinkle some lime powder to control it, otherwise it will directly lead to the death of mimosa. So yellowing pests should be dealt with in time.

Mimosa is delicate and needs careful care so that it can grow better and may even blossom.
