What are the three kinds of plants that are the three friends of the year? How to raise it?

In ancient poems, three kinds of plants were usually mentioned, namely, pine, plum blossom and bamboo. These three kinds of plants all have different meanings, and they are also the symbols of those great poets in ancient times, who were full of blood and could not serve the country, and saw the power of the motherland, corruption and incompetence, and their incorruptible life. For example, the pine tree has straight branches, symbolizing the spirit of being strong and unyielding and not being hit by difficulties.

In the Analects of Confucius, there was a cold age and then the pine and cypress withered. Plum blossom is also a theme that many poets and poets like to recite, because plum blossoms mostly blossom in the cold winter. When many plants wither and wither, plum blossoms stand proudly in the cold wind, showing a spirit that is not afraid of power and moves forward bravely. Because of its tall and straight posture, bamboo has always given people a sense of elegance and narcissism. It is not only a cold three friends, but also one of the four gentlemen.

So we can maintain these three kinds of plants in the courtyard or balcony at home, so how can we maintain them?

1. Pine bonsai

Because the pine tree is relatively large to be planted, we can shrink it for conservation. This is the pine bonsai. There can be no stagnant water in the pine bonsai, because too much water will make the roots unable to breathe normally and make the leaves yellow. Qualified friends can apply fertilizer properly, which is generally suitable from August to October, which can keep the pine bonsai evergreen.

2. Plum blossom

Plum blossoms like a humid environment, so we can pour some more water during the growing season, but we need to be careful not to cause stagnant water. There are more flowers in winter, so we need to pay attention to whether the surface of the potted soil is thoroughly dry until it is thoroughly dry and watered once. We can get some bottom fertilizer at the bottom of the basin at the beginning of planting, which is beneficial to the growth of seedlings. During the growing period, the application of fertilizer at the beginning and the end of the month can make plum blossoms have enough nutrients to blossom in winter.

3. Bamboo

Bamboo can also be preserved in pots. We can maintain bamboo in the form of hydroponic culture, which is similar to that of rich bamboo in a vase. If it is a potted plant, it can be watered every day, but there can be no stagnant water. It is a good choice to put it in the corner of the living room or in the study.

Three friends of the year, do you all know that you can try one of them at home if you want to maintain one of them?
