Lupin flowers that release their own fertilizer can be seen in the yard for many years

Lubinghua is actually a lupin, a flowering plant that can maintain perennial growth. It is very suitable for planting in the yard. I have even seen Lubinghua cultivated in pots.

Lu Binghua is particularly beautiful when it blossoms, and its ability to adapt to the environment is also very good. It even becomes a wild plant. It grows very simply in some places where the temperature is not high. It can grow everywhere in summer and can produce a sea of flowers.

Lubinghua is actually a kind of legume plant. After its flowers are pollinated successfully, it will produce pods that look like pods. Lubinghua can be eaten as food, and its leaves can also be used to feed livestock. For example, common cattle and sheep can eat its leaves.

The seeds of Lubinghua can be used as food, but the yield of Lubinghua is not as much as that of other beans, so few people plant it in the ground. Now Lubinghua has become a very good ornamental plant, but few people know that Lubinghua's beans have very high nutritional value, high cellulose, strong antioxidant capacity, and lower calories than soybeans.

The leaves of Lu Binghua are very strange, a bit like the leaves of duck feet. They look strong and strong. If they do not blossom, they will look very inconspicuous.

When its flowers open, it looks particularly brilliant, the whole flower is mostly cone-shaped, each flower looks very fresh, and there are many colors, such as common purplish blue, pink, white and red, and relatively rare varieties of apricot and mixed colors.

Lu Bing flower blossoms in spring and summer, its flowering period is very long, and its ornamental is very good. Generally, its flowers can be seen from May to August. If you plant some Lu Bing flowers in the yard, you can see charming bees and butterflies in spring and summer.

Lubinghua is actually a kind of plant in cold zone, which can not be too warm in winter and needs colder winter to grow well. In tropical areas, it can only be cultivated as an annual plant.

Lu Binghua must not be cultivated in slightly acidic or neutral soil, but in slightly alkaline soil, not with some plant species that like slightly acidic soil, let alone acidic fertilizer, although it can grow in neutral soil, but it doesn't grow well.

The soil planted with Lubinghua can be mixed with some plant ash or lime, which can increase the alkalinity of the soil. The soil generally uses compost soil to mix some manure and river sand to maintain good drainage of the soil.

If you are a friend in the south, you must not choose to cultivate it when the temperature is higher, but after the temperature gets colder in autumn, so that you can see its flowers next spring.

Lu Binghua is particularly suitable for sowing and reproduction, because it is a legume plant, which is particularly easy to germinate. after spring is warm, before sowing and breeding, you can put the seeds in the lower layer of the refrigerator for about a week or two, which can improve its germinating power. it is even easier to soak the seeds in clean water for one night before sowing.

Ordinary maintenance needs more light, but to avoid the maintenance temperature is too high, especially in some dry and hot environment, it is best to choose shaded places to cultivate, and increase the frequency of watering when the weather is hot.

To maintain Lu Binghua, you should put some soil on the soil surface as a cover soil, so as to maintain moisture and avoid excessive temperature.

Another advantage of planting Lubinghua is that it does not need frequent fertilization. If there is too much fertilizer, its branches and leaves will grow and affect flowering. It is a legume plant, the requirement of soil fertility is very low, it will absorb nitrogen in the soil and air, so as to prevent the soil from becoming barren, and the soil cultivated by Lubinghua will become more fertile.

Fertilizer to avoid nitrogen fertilizer, want to promote flowering can be directly given phosphate fertilizer, but the amount should not be too much. If you want to promote the continuous blooming of Lu Bing flowers, you should pick off the residual flowers in time after the flowers have withered, which can promote secondary flowering, preserve more nutrients, promote root growth, and have a better house in the coming year.

If you want to collect seeds, you can't cut off the flowers. when the pods are ripe, you can collect them and store them in a cool place. Also put them in the lower refrigerator for a week before sowing.

Lubinghua is a very good ornamental legume plant, it can be grown with vegetables, it can eat itself, and it can release nitrogen fertilizer to vegetables, which is why I recommend the cultivation of Lubinghua.
