The latest distribution of the origin of goldfish grass

Goldfish grass is a flower that blooms in summer and autumn. it is widely planted in Chinese gardens. it is suitable for planting in flower beds and flower borders, especially with zinnia, petunia, marigold, string of red and so on. High-sex varieties can be used as background planting. Dwarf varieties are suitable for coffin rock or windowsill flower ponds, or edge coffins. Let's take a look at the origin distribution of goldfish grass.

Distribution of origin of goldfish grass

Goldfish grasslands are grown along the Mediterranean coast, ranging from Morocco and Portugal to the north, France to the south, Turkey and Syria to the east, and are cultivated in gardens and sometimes wild.

Growth habits of Artemisia frutescens

Goldfish grass likes sunshine and can withstand semi-overcast. Sex is more cold-resistant, not resistant to heat. It is suitable for growing suddenly when it is loose, fertile and well drained, and it can also grow normally in calcareous soil. Goldfish grass is a light-loving herb. Under the condition of sufficient sunshine, the plant is short, cluster-shaped and compact, with neat growth, highly consistent, neat flowering and bright colors. Under the semi-overcast condition, the plant growth was higher, the inflorescence elongated and the flower color was lighter. It is not sensitive to the length of light, such as Huayu series of goldfish grass is almost insensitive to the length of sunshine.

Culture method of goldfish grass

1. Soil: goldfish grass does not have a high demand for soil, but it grows best in a slightly acidic sandy loam that is fertile, loose and well drained.

2. Watering: goldfish grass is very sensitive to water, and the potted soil must be kept moist, and it must be fully watered when potted seedlings are planted, but the drainage of potted soil must be good and cannot accumulate water. otherwise, it will easily cause root rot, stem and leaf withering and withering.

3. Sunshine: the light-loving herbs of goldfish grass need to survive under sufficient sunlight. The plants are short and cluster-shaped and compact, and they grow neatly and have been blooming neatly and have bright colors all the time. If they are in semi-overcast conditions, the growth of the plant will be on the high side and the inflorescence will be elongated and dim.

4. Temperature: goldfish grass is relatively cold-resistant but not heat-resistant, the most suitable temperature for growth is 7-10 degrees, high temperature will be disadvantageous to growth and development, and the most suitable temperature for flowering is about 15-16 degrees. Some varieties will not branch and affect the plant state if the temperature exceeds 15 degrees.

5. Fertilization: it is necessary to strengthen the management of fertilizer and water, and more attention should be paid to the cooperation of phosphorus and potassium, because it itself has rhizobium and has the role of nitrogen fixation, so it is not necessary to apply nitrogen fertilizer in general. In the growing period, it is necessary to apply fermented oil residue water every half a month, and loosen the soil and weed properly before fertilization.

6. Pruning: goldfish grass can only cut off its flowering branches after each flowering, so that it can better promote the germination of new branches and continue to bloom.
