Clematis clematis

When it comes to Fujimoto, you can't get around clematis. Xiaotie, known as the queen of Fujimoto, has a variety of varieties, sizes, rich colors, simple and charming patterns, and is becoming more and more popular among willing lovers in China.

However, there are many flower friends who hesitated for a long time when they entered the pit. There are too many varieties and do not know how to maintain them. Many novices feel helpless. So today we will break these problems in terms of basic maintenance.

1. Selection of clematis pots.

For 1-year and 2-year seedlings, generally choose a basin with a height of 20-25 cm, and for 3-year seedlings, generally choose a basin with a height of 30-40 cm. The size of the basin caliber is not important. Cymbidium pots and gallon pots are the best, and the pots are too high. It will produce poor drainage and ventilation, and the bottom must be covered with gravel or ceramsite.

2. Clematis soil

Clematis is a fleshy root that needs loose, breathable and well-drained soil. Ordinary soil is too sticky, air permeability is not good, clematis is easy to rot roots, so it is not recommended to use when potted. Students who are afraid of trouble can use brands such as Meloko. But the price is expensive and the performance-to-price ratio is relatively low.

The formula for flowers is peat: perlite = 4:1, peat provides water retention and fat retention and is very soft, perlite ensures air permeability. Adding a small amount of rice husk charcoal (cheap online shopping) can loosen the soil and improve fertility.

3. Watering and fertilizing

Clematis should be watered alternately, and when the soil surface is 2cm dry, or the potted soil is lighter, it can be watered. In addition to the base fertilizer added when changing pots, we can add water-soluble fertilizer like Huaduoduo during the two peak growing seasons in spring and autumn, about once a week. The concentration is 1000 times. That is, 1 gram of flower and flour to 1 liter of water. Huaduoduo No. 1 is used in the growing period, and Huaduoduo No. 2 is used in the bud and florescence to promote flowering. Pour it into the flowerpot, no need for spray, easy to cause flower deformity.

4. Clematis pruning

After proper pruning, the second wave will open in 40-60 days. Some varieties only bloom spring flowers, such as Montana, evergreen, as long as cut residual flowers and extra branches. Some varieties of summer flowers have fewer autumn flowers, and the color patterns are not beautiful, such as pink champagne, doctor, bee love and so on. Most other varieties suggest only pruning the residual flowers after flowering, and cut off the flowering festival around the end of July, so that autumn flowers can bloom around October.

One kind of variety (not pruned), long petal, evergreen and Montana, as long as the dead leaves can be removed. Type II varieties (light pruning), starting with nodes without full buds.

F-series pruning tips: F-series pruning can be very casual, not cut, light cut, heavy cut is OK, it is recommended to cut lightly. Recently, all F lines have sprouted, so just cut off the unbudding branches.

Three types of varieties (heavy shearing), three types of varieties are treated with full-edge iron and Italian lines. The whole edge is close to the ground for heavy pruning, and it is recommended to keep 3-7 branches for pruning in Italy. Lazy can not be on the photo, Italy refers to the second category.

Summary of planting points of clematis:

Varieties: clematis of late flower group, Italian group, Texas group and whole group are more leathery and easy to raise.

Choose to buy: choose high-rated stores to buy, do not be cheap, avoid buying fake goods.

Where to grow flowers: it is best to be outdoors, with good ventilation and light.
