Planting method of Prunus mume

Five-leaf plum, commonly known as five-claw dragon, sow vegetable, five-dragon grass, etc., is distributed in many provinces in China, most of which grow along lower mountain roads, and some are distributed in ditches or bushes, and artificially cultivated ones are mostly used in potted plants or decorated in the yard. Below the pro-agricultural network to introduce the basic planting methods of five-leaf plum.

I. Propagation methods

The main propagation methods of Prunus mume are cutting and sowing.

1. Cutting propagation: choose a half-old branch, cut it at 15 or 16 centimeters, soak it in carbendazim solution for a while to promote its rooting, and then choose a suitable flowerpot to plant it.

two。 Sowing and reproduction: five-leaf plum has seeds. Five or six days after the flower fades, the general seeds mature. The seeds at this time are brown. After collection, you can dry them first, and then you can sow them.

II. Soil selection

Five-leaf plum does not have high requirements for soil. Ordinary vegetable garden soil and humus soil can be used to spread a layer of cinder soil at the bottom of the flowerpot, followed by household fertilizer, that is, fermented fertilizer such as leaf chicken fertilizer and rabbit fertilizer, and then spread a layer of humus soil. the basin soil is finished.

Third, flowerpot selection

Because the plant of the five-leaf plum is not large, so the choice of flowerpot caliber is about 30, it is best to choose the earthen pot, although it is not good-looking, but it is still better for growing flowers, the air permeability and water permeability of the earthen pot is better, the bottom of the flowerpot must have a small hole, which is used for drainage, this small hole should find something to cover part of it before loading the pot soil, not all.

IV. Management at seedling stage

If it is a five-leaf plum sown, the seed will sprout after a few days of sowing. When you find that the seed germinates and comes out of the soil, remember not to remove the cover or water it, wait for it to grow two or three tender leaves and then let the five-leaf plum see the light, and then water it properly. when the seedlings grow to about 10 centimeters, they can be shoveled out with a flower shovel with roots, transplanted into a prepared flowerpot, watered again, and placed in a cool place. After the transplanted seedlings take root, they can be put in the sun.

V. Daily maintenance

Breeding five-leaf plum is actually very simple, it likes warmth and sunshine, ensure its light time, remember to water in time, water again when the pot soil is dry, water too much will rot roots, and at the same time remember to loosen the soil to avoid soil hardening. when there are weeds in the flowerpot, remove them in time to avoid the occurrence of diseases and insect pests, spray as soon as possible, because the five-leaf plum plant is relatively small, usually transplant two or three plants in a flowerpot Trim it in layers to make it look more beautiful.

The above is the introduction of the planting method of the five-leaf plum brought by the pro-agricultural network. The five-leaf plum can be propagated by cutting all the year round in the southern region, and the sowing is mainly chosen in spring, when the temperature reaches 25 ℃. The mature flowers will be in full bloom in June and July of that year.
