What are the characteristics of how to grow Australian fir bonsai? Techniques of cutting propagation

The tenacious vitality of Australian fir makes it suitable for mass reproduction. Generally in the summer, the seeds are first skinned, which is conducive to germination, otherwise the seeds are easy to rot and die. After treatment in the room temperature of about 26 degrees Celsius, and maintain a certain humidity, cover the seeds with a layer of fine sand no more than 2 centimeters thick, it will germinate in less than a month, and then it can be planted.

When cutting, we should also pay attention to, if we select the trunk or longer branches as the cutting object, the subsequent growth can easily lead to its crown shape is incorrect, so that its ornamental value is greatly reduced.

In the production of bonsai in Australia. First of all, the soil matrix made from the mixture of soil, rotten leaf soil and peat moss is the best. The size of the basin depends on the size of the seedlings. The position of bonsai should also be paid attention to, it should be ventilated and bright, and be given proper exposure to the sun at intervals, so that it will grow well.

If there is moisture, it is best to keep the soil moist, not to allow water to accumulate in the basin, and to control bisection according to different seasons, such as more watering in Spring and Autumn, and watering in winter should be gradually reduced, otherwise its cold resistance will decline. Plants are generally phototropic, and in order to avoid bending growth, the basin has to be rotated at regular intervals. In addition, when the bonsai is growing normally, it does not need to be pruned, but mainly controls the temperature and humidity of the environment.

The conservation of Australian fir bonsai should be adjusted according to different seasons. Spring, summer, autumn and winter are different in four seasons. In spring, the basin can be changed when the temperature is stable and not less than 10 ℃. Pay attention to the loose and fertile soil. Its basin change interval is about two to three years. Summer when the temperature is generally higher, the sun exposure is relatively strong, although it can withstand high temperature, but not suitable for strong light, otherwise it will affect its ornamental. Therefore, a well-ventilated place is the best place to place in summer.

Autumn and winter are also a little different. In autumn, the main thing is to pay attention to the moisture in the basin. The application of fertilizer can be stopped and transferred outdoors, which can increase its cold resistance, but it will be damaged if the frost falls. In winter, the temperature should not be less than 5 ℃, the light should also be sufficient, as long as the soil is wet and dry.
