What season is willow?

The most vigorous season for willow growth is spring, flowering from March to April, branch sprouting from February to March, and willow ripening from April to May. The growth period of willow is relatively long, and the leaves will be scattered by germination, and the branches will grow longer and longer.

First, the culture method of willow

1. Planting location willow is a very good breeding plant, their growth is very tenacious, often used as landscaping trees, not only good ornamental effect, but also can protect the soil to prevent soil desertification. Willows like sunny but wet environments. So many people keep it on the bank of the river, which not only makes the soil strong, but also looks beautiful.

two。 Sunshine: Willow is a kind of light-loving plant, do not raise it in too shady environment. Keep the willow in an environment with plenty of light all the year round, only the sun will make the willow stronger, so that the willow can grow thousands of drooping willows. But in summer, pay attention to the need for a little shade when it is too hot.

3. Temperature: willows like sunny environments, but they prefer warm growing environments. So in the spring and autumn, they will grow faster. It is hot in summer and all places become very dry. We need to sprinkle water to moisturize all the time. Measures to keep warm must be taken in time before winter to prevent plants from freezing to death.

4. Water and fertilizer: willows like to be wet, so watering is also very important. If we water willows, we must water them in time. It's best to keep the soil moist, but if you plant it in the soil beside the water, don't water it too often. There is no need to apply fertilizer too frequently, just apply nitrogen fertilizer once in spring, only once phosphorus and potassium fertilizer in summer, add overwintering organic fertilizer before winter, and then water it after 4 or 5 days of fertilization each time.

II. Matters needing attention in willow culture

1. Pay attention to catkins: willows have catkins, this kind of white fluff will fly with the wind, in fact, it is the seed of willow. Fluttering willows will fall with the wind, in fact, this is to spread seeds and breed willows invisibly. Because this white fluff is very small, so do not suck into the body, it is best to wear a mask. Especially for people with asthma, you must not let yourself inhale.

two。 Propagation methods: there are two propagation methods of willow, seed propagation and cutting propagation. Cutting is the simplest method of propagation. In spring, choose a fast-growing, disease-free plant and cut a 2-3-year-old willow branch of 15cm to 17cm on the pre-sprouting branch. Then insert it straight into the soil and water it through the soil. Keep the soil moist in the later stage, do timely sprouting and weeding, once you take root, you can top fertilizer, and the plant will be stronger after 3 or 4 times.

The willow is very beautiful when it grows, especially in the riverside, riverside, lakeside and other places. The color of the water and the willow match each other, which is the scenery in the painting.
