Jade leaf golden flower, also known as white paper fan, white butterfly, white leaf, etc., is a climbing shrub of Rubiaceae, with thin and soft branches. it can make all kinds of bonsai according to their own hobbies, and can also be used for vertical greening next to buildings such as enclosures. it plays an important role in greening and beautifying the environment, purifying the air, conserving water sources, conserving soil and water, improving the ecological environment, etc. Next, let's take a look at the breeding method of jade leaf golden flower.

Growth habits of Flos Lonicerae

Jinhua is distributed in various provinces and regions south of the Yangtze River in China, including Guangdong, Hong Kong, Hainan, Guangxi, Fujian, Hunan, Jiangxi, Zhejiang and Taiwan. It is often wild in hilly slopes, thickets, forest margins, valleys, mountains, roadsides and other places. Strong adaptability, shade tolerance, fast growth, strong sprouting power, strong resistance to pruning, and can grow in barren, sunny or semi-humid environment.

The Propagation method of Flos Lonicerae

1. Cuttings: select annual, sturdy twigs in spring, cut the cuttings at a length of 8cm and cut its lower end into an angle of 45 degrees. Before cutting, soak the bottom of the cuttings in low concentration potassium permanganate solution for 1 hour or 2 hours. The cuttings are cut in a bed with good water permeability and good river sand or perlite, with a depth of 1 step 2 of the cuttage length. After cutting, water should be watered once, shade and air humidity should be maintained. It can take root and survive after 10-15 days.

2. Sowing: in the season from the Beginning of Summer to Lesser Fullness of Grain, the newly collected seeds can be sowed after they are placed in a cool and ventilated place to dry. In order to improve the germination rate and early emergence, the seeds can be soaked in 30 ℃ potassium permanganate solution of about 1: 2% concentration for 1-2 hours, take out and dry and sow, cover soil about 1 cm and keep moist, shaded and ventilated. Seedlings can emerge in 7 days.

The Culture method of Flos Lonicerae

2. Watering: the jade leaf golden flower is slightly resistant to drought, the water should be controlled during the growing period, the foliar water should be sprinkled to reduce the air temperature in hot summer, and the air humidity should be maintained by spraying water to the leaf surface and the surrounding space in time when drying.

3. Sunshine: positive plants of the genus Chrysanthemum, whether planted in the ground or in pots, should be placed in full or half-day sunshine.

4. Temperature: the plant is prone to defoliation when the winter air temperature is lower than 0 ℃. If the temperature is low for a long time, it is easy to dry up and die of the shoot.

5. Fertilization: pay attention to more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer at seedling stage, thin fertilizer should be applied frequently at flower bud stage, foliar topdressing can also be adopted, and adult plants can apply phosphate fertilizer twice at flowering stage.

6. Pruning: the jade leaf golden flower needs repeated coring treatment, the overlong branches can be thinned during the growth process, and can be drawn and shaped according to the modeling needs. at the same time, withered branches, old branches, over-dense branches, long branches, disease and insect branches can be cut off in time to improve ventilation and light transmission. After flowering, the residual branches should be cut off in time to reduce nutrient consumption and promote them to blossom again.
