Lamei is a very beautiful ornamental flower, which is often planted in the courtyard and outdoors. The spirit that Lamei is not afraid of wind and snow is also worth learning, so Lamei is also a symbol of tenacity and nobility, which is deeply loved by people. When do the preserved plum seeds usually be sown? How do you plant it?

When do the seeds of preserved plums usually be sown?

The sowing season of wax plum seeds is in spring, because this is the time when all things recover. Of course, the seeds of preserved plum can also be selected in autumn, and the best time is from July to August.

Second, how to plant preserved plum seeds?

The seeds of Lamei can be sown naturally, but because the seed coat of Prunus mume is very thick, the germination speed of seeds will be very slow after sowing. At that time, Science Xingnong also used the seeds of dried plums. At that time, because they did not know how to promote germination, they never germinated after sowing. Later, they did not germinate until the spring of the following year, but their own plums did not blossom for three years, and finally they were pulled up by their father. It can also be seen that not only the germination speed of our preserved plum seeds is full enough, but the growth rate of dried plum seedlings is also very slow.

The seeds of Prunus mume are most suitable to be harvested after the fruit is ripe from July to August. The seeds are taken out from the receptacle and sown at any time after being mixed with new high-fat membrane. If the seeds are soaked in warm water before sowing, it can promote germination. After the seedlings were unearthed in April, we should pay attention to prevent the harm of Bombyx mori and strengthen the management without protecting the shade. The seedlings grow slowly, and the height is only 10ml / 15cm. The rootstocks of Prunus mume can be cultured in large quantities by sowing method, but it takes a long time to cultivate.

3. Key points for the conservation of potted preserved plum

1. Watering

Lamei usually watered to maintain the soil semi-moisture state is better, pay attention to drainage in the rainy season to prevent soil water. Replenish water in time in the dry season, and during flowering, the soil should be kept moderately dry and should not be watered too much. Potted Chimonanthus praecox is planted in spring and autumn, the pot soil is not dry or irrigated; in summer, the water is watered once every morning and evening, and the amount of water is controlled according to the dry and wet condition of the basin soil.

2. Fertilization

In potted Chimonanthus praecox, fertilizer and water will no longer be applied at the early stage of potting, leaf fertilizer should be applied in spring, fully mature organic fertilizer should be applied once a year after flower fade, and rotten cake fertilizer and water should be applied every 10-15 days from spring new leaf germination to June growth season, and during the flower bud differentiation period from July to August, the mixture of mature organic fertilizer and phosphorus and potassium fertilizer should be applied. Apply organic fertilizer again after autumn. After each fertilization should be timely watering, loosen the soil, in order to keep the soil loose, do not apply fertilizer during flowering.

3. Pruning after anthesis

Lamei removes the old branches, withered branches, overdense branches and long branches, and retracts the weak main branches or branches. For the main branches that are too high, too long and too strong, they can retract at the larger oblique branches, take the lead with weak branches, and control the height, length and potential of branches. Cut short annual branches, keep 30-40 cm for extended main branches, 10-20 cm for other strong branches, and leave a pair of buds or thinning for weak branches. After the flowers fade, pick the residual flowers in time.
