Can the latest sour horn tree grow in the north?

Sour horn tree can not only be planted in batch production of sour horn, because it has good medicinal efficacy and edible value, so it can often bring good economic benefits to people, but also pot ornamental. Sour horn tree seedlings as a potted appreciation, its leaves are stylish and good-looking, lush and eye-nourishing, often bring a touch of freshness to the environment. However, as a small fresh potted ornamental, it is usually necessary to abandon the flowering and fruiting. After all, the seedlings of the sour horn tree are not easy to blossom and bear fruit.

Planting sour horn tree not only has good edible value and medicinal value, but also has certain ornamental value. Whether as a mass production of fruit, or potted ornamental, we all need to create a comfortable growth environment, after all, sour horn has certain requirements for the growth environment, and can not be planted anywhere to survive. Because in different regional spaces, the climate environment is often different, and even there is a big gap, such as the climate environment in the north and south of China is very different.

As we all know, the climate in southern China is often warm and humid, the light is sufficient, even in winter the temperature is often not very low, the living environment is comfortable. In the north of China, the four seasons are very distinct, and the temperature environment is very different, especially in some areas, there will be extremely cold climate in winter, which is not only unsuitable for human habitation, but also unbearable to many plants. It is precisely because the climatic environment of the north and south regions of China is quite different, so the plant species suitable for planting are generally different.

Sour horn tree is a tropical tree species, which not only likes warmth and light, but also tolerates drought and barren, but its cold tolerance is poor, and the most suitable growth temperature is usually about 25 °C. If it can meet these growth requirements and create a comfortable growth environment for it, it is relatively easy to raise it well. In contrast, the southern part of China can basically meet the requirements of the growth environment, so it is planted in the vast areas of southern China. However, the temperature in the opposite area of China is often relatively low, especially in winter, and the sour horn tree is a tree species that likes the sun and likes to be warm, so it is generally difficult to survive the winter safely if planted in the natural environment in the northern winter. Therefore, it is not suitable to plant sour horn tree in the north of our country.

But everything can not be too absolute, although the natural environment in the north is not suitable for planting sour horn tree, but if we can build a warm and comfortable greenhouse environment, such as spring all year round, and put the sour horn tree pot plant in it, there is often no phenomenon of poor growth due to lack of light, nor freezing damage due to the low temperature outside. However, if we build such a greenhouse environment for the pots to ensure their safe and smooth winter, the cost is often too high and it is not suitable.

Then, some potted friends consider that when winter comes, the potted sour horn tree will be moved to indoor maintenance, which can often achieve the role of cold protection and warmth, so as to ensure that the plant will not be frostbitten. However, we should not ignore the effects of humidity and light on the growth of sour horn trees. The sour horn tree likes the warm, bright and humid growth environment, so we can't just pursue the heat preservation and ignore the light and humidity. In winter in the north, there is generally heating or Kang at home, which can keep the potted sour horn tree warm, but the indoor air is often very dry, and it is not easy to receive light, so even if the sour horn tree is potted indoors for maintenance, there are often all kinds of growth problems, even death.

To sum up, sour horn tree is generally unable to survive in the northern region, especially in the outdoor natural environment, almost can not grow in winter, and the occurrence of frostbite, frostbite is also inevitable. Even if it is moved to indoor maintenance, there will be growth problems due to lack of light and humidity. After all, sour horn tree is a kind of tree that likes to grow in a warm, bright and humid environment. In view of this, the editor still recommends that potted friends in the south of China plant sour horn trees.
