Epiphyllum often has existing methods.

The epiphyllum is beautiful in shape and has a unique fragrance. People love it, but it is a pity that it can not make people enjoy the eyes. In many years of practice, after many experiments, we can make a flash in the pan into a common occurrence. The method is:

First, grafting. Epiphyllum belongs to the genus Cactus, which is succulent. Its sibling, Ling Arrow Lotus, also belongs to the family Cactaceae, the genus Euphorbia, which can be grafted. The specific approach is to select the two-year-old and robust Ling Arrow Lotus as the rootstock from April to May, cut it at 6 cm to 12 cm, cut a 5 cm long opening vertically with a knife in the flat direction, and then select the sturdy and moderately sized abnormal stem of epiphyllum, which is inserted in the knife edge of the Ling Arrow Lotus. After treatment, the plant is placed in a cool place, and the soil moisture is kept by 30%, 45%. Appropriate topdressing phosphate fertilizer, potash fertilizer (basin diameter 15 cm-20 cm can be buried 5 g-10 g potassium dihydrogen phosphate). After 15-20 days, the grafted epiphyllum can survive, which can be called Lingjian epiphyllum. It can bloom three or four times a year. In early July, mid-August and early-mid-September, respectively. We each have one in the middle of October. Most of the flowering time is from 5 am to 7 am, and each flower can be in full bloom for 3-5 days. It takes half the time than the arrow lotus, and increases 14-16 times more than the epiphyllum, thus changing the short-lived characteristic. Flowers can be up to 12 cm-15 cm in diameter, 3 times larger than epiphyllum.

Second, light. Light is the main factor affecting plant flowering. The change of light can cause physiological changes of epiphyllum, so that epiphyllum can bloom during the day. Because epiphyllum is native to southern America and Mexico, the temperature changes greatly and the sun is very hot during the day. Epiphyllum blossom at night can avoid hot sun exposure, flowering time is short, can greatly reduce water evaporation, slowly form habits, pass down from generation to generation. To change this habit, you can use the following methods:

1. Prolong the time of illumination. In the case of avoiding the hot sun, the lighting time during the day can reach about 10 hours, and the electric light can continue to shine for three or four hours at night to change the flowering time.

two。 Change the light time. When epiphyllum sits in buds, put epiphyllum in a windless dark place during the day. The epiphyllum can blossom in the daytime after being irradiated by light at 7: 00 p. M. to 3: 00 in the middle of the night and treated continuously for 14-16 days.

3. Overwintering and changing habits. During the overwintering period, put epiphyllum in dim light, keep 10 ℃-15 ℃ at room temperature, and keep soil moist at 30% Mel 40%. The pot soil should not be too dry or too wet throughout the winter. When blooming, the epiphyllum of the pregnant bud is covered with a black plastic bag to block the light. At 7 p.m., the epiphyllum is illuminated with a 20-watt lamp or a 40-60 degree bulb until the next day, and then covered with a plastic bag until the epiphyllum blooms. After this treatment, epiphyllum can blossom during the day, and the flowering period can reach 8-16 hours.

The color of the hybrid epiphyllum is very beautiful, originally milky white, light yellow or yellowish red flowers after hybridization, and occasionally flowers whose hearts turn red. If you want to call epiphyllum often present, you can adopt these measures.

When the epiphyllum is first released, the buds are drooping and hooked, the flowers are as big as a tea bowl, the outer petals have lavender stripes, and the petals are crystal white as snow. But unfortunately, the flowers disappeared within three or four hours, that is, in a hurry to cover their faces. Therefore, it is said that it is a flash in the pan. At this time, a method is introduced, which can make a flash in the pan for a long time.

Epiphyllum is a succulent plant of the cactus family. Its sibling, Ling Arrow Lotus, also belongs to the genus Cactus, which can be grafted onto Ling Arrow Lotus. The specific approach is to select the two-year-old Ling Arrow Lotus as the rootstock in May and June, cut it at 6mur12cm, and cut a 5cm long opening vertically with a knife in the direction of the flat. Then select the sturdy and moderate-sized abnormal stem of epiphyllum and insert it in the knife edge of the lotus. After treatment, the plant should be placed in a cool place with a humidity of 30%, and the humidity should be kept at 30% 45%. Appropriate application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer (the pot diameter of 1520 cm can be buried with 5mur10 grams of potassium dihydrogen phosphate). After 15 colors for 20 days, the grafted epiphyllum can survive, which can be interestingly called epiphyllum.

Epiphyllum can bloom three or four times a year, once in early July, mid-August, early-mid-September and mid-October, respectively. Most of the flowering time is from 5 am to 7 am, and each flower can be in full bloom for 5 days. The flowering period of the arrow lotus is reduced by about half, and the time of the epiphyllum is increased by 14 times, thus changing the characteristic of being short-lived. And the diameter of the flower can reach 4ml 6 inches, which is 3 times larger than that of epiphyllum.
