Planting skills of Finch Plum
Finch plum must be no stranger to bonsai lovers. As one of the seven sages of bonsai, Zhang Yongfa praised it in his poem that "the red buds of spring are full of trees, the shade of summer is covered, the broken flowers of autumn are fragrant, and the iron bone branches of winter". The sparrow plum root is peculiar, as a whole, it looks vigorous and advantageous, classical and elegant, it is really the top grade of bonsai.
But Finch plum also has a headache feature, that is, Finch plum branch loss: after shaping the work, there will be a sudden death of a branch, commonly known as retirement. A good basin of works, condensing the painstaking efforts of the producers for many years, is almost scrapped because of the partial loss of branches, which is really annoying. The reason is that due to the thin cortex of the branches and the longitudinal transport of nutrients, there are high requirements for the daily maintenance and management of Finch plum.
1. Let the potted sparrow plum keep exuberant growth.
The prerequisite for exuberant growth is a dry body with branches on all sides. The post-sprouting pile should pay full attention to this point in the selection and retention of modeling branches. Even if it is a useless dry branch top shape of the outer branch, it should not be cut off at once; wait for the tree to recover, and then gradually cut off according to the shape needs. If it is cut off at one time, there may be a partial withering phenomenon, which will seriously affect the growth and beauty of the pile. ?
As we all know, the balance of tree potential is extremely important for the growth of pile wood. Only when the root, stem, branch and leaf of pile wood get exuberant all-round growth, and the pile wood that suffered heavy damage during the billet transformation, can the body be restored, thus accumulating sufficient nutrients and preparing for future pruning modeling.
Sparrow plum branch modeling: try to cut mainly, try to use little or no wire plate. Because the skin of sparrow plum is very thin, the wire wrapped around the branch will seriously affect the nutrient transport of the branch, which will lead to the growth and weakness of the branch over a long period of time, and it is inevitable to develop and lose branches; after shaping, sparrow plum cannot be overpruned, at most twice a year: once in the rainy season and once before sprouting. If the sparrow plum after falling leaves is pruned in place for viewing, it should be collected indoors in time before it freezes in winter, because the exposed cut will freeze in the cold weather, damage the bud near the cut, and even kill the branches. affect the normal germination of branches in the coming year.
two。 Potted sparrow plum bogey heavy water loss.
Severe water loss is one of the main reasons for the branch loss of potted Finch plum. Therefore, it is extremely important for potted Finch plum to keep the soil moist. We all know that when the water deficit is serious, the cell loses turgor pressure, which is caused by the transpiration water loss greater than the root water absorption. In other words, the water content in the basin soil is equal to or lower than the amount of water needed for transpiration, especially in the summer high temperature season. Although the potted Finch plum with severe water loss can restore the normal growth of leaves after replenishing water, it will inevitably cause part of the plant cell necrosis and form growth standstill. Many potted friends should have this experience: after the loss of water, the potted Finch plum did not dry up and died, but in a long period of time, the dry and wet cycle of the basin soil became longer and the frequency of watering decreased significantly. The reason is that the transpiration and transport capacity of the plant after severe water loss decreased after the death of some cells in the root stem and branch. Due to the unique physiological characteristics of Finch plum, the growth standstill caused by the death of some root stem branch cells will inevitably lead to the hindrance of the growth of the corresponding branch receptacle, and branch loss is inevitable over time. In fact, this is also a kind of self-regulating function of the plant, because the growth balance of the whole plant is destroyed, it will abandon some branches and maintain the balance of the whole plant growth, which is not uncommon in the growth of plants in nature.
3. Potted Finch plum must be changed frequently.
The reason why sparrow plum is very popular with bonsai lovers is that it has a strong germination ability and is very convenient for the choice of branching points. We know that the root system of tree species with strong germination is also extremely developed. Under the condition of pot culture, because the growth space of its root system is limited, if the pot is not changed for a long time, its root system will grow rotationally along the basin wall and form a "root nest", which will seriously affect the water and nutrient absorption of the root system, and then affect the normal growth of the whole plant. Therefore, potted Finch plum must be changed frequently. Small and medium-sized potted sparrow plums must be changed once a year; large ones can be appropriately delayed, but it is best to change them every other year. When changing the basin, the roots can be pruned properly in combination with the culture of multi-stage roots. Finch plum is not very strict about the soil, and its PH value can grow normally in the range of 5.5 Mel -, but it must be loose and transparent.
The above are the key skills to be grasped in planting sparrow plum. It takes years of painstaking efforts to grow sparrow plum, and it would be a pity if a pot of sparrow plum work is scrapped because of the loss of branches. Therefore, in the daily maintenance, we should be diligent in observing and summarizing to avoid the occurrence of sparrow plum branch loss.
