The culture method of false thrift grass

False frugal grass is a perennial broad-leaf lawn plant of the genus Pteris gramineae. it has deep roots that can endure drought, barren, shady and wet environment, long green period, rapid growth, strong invasiveness and regeneration ability, fast flat formation, high coverage, thick grass layer, and resistance to rough management. in order to build all kinds of lawns and highway slope protection, ridge protection, embankment ideal greening ground cover materials, let's take a look at the cultivation methods of false thrift grass!

The growth habit of Pseudothrift Grass

False thrift grass likes light, shade, drought and trample. Xiamen turned green in the middle of March, withered and yellow at the end of December, long green period, like sunshine and loose soil, if it can keep the soil moist and frost-free in winter, it can remain green all the year round. Narrow leaves and stolons lay flat on the ground to form a compact, flat lawn, with few other weeds invading. Resistant to pruning, sulfur dioxide and other harmful gases, dust absorption, dust retention performance is good.

The Propagation method of false thrift Grass

The false thrift grass is slightly the same as other grassland plants, and the seeds mature and fall to the ground in winter have a certain ability of self-sowing, so they can use seed direct seeding to build lawns, and the ability of asexual reproduction is also very strong. It is customary to use the methods of transplanting grass blocks and planting stolons to build lawns. Generally, 6 to 8 square meters of turf can be built per square meter of turf.

The culture method of false thrift grass

1. Soil: the vertical growth rate of false thrift grass is slow, and it grows vigorously in the soil with medium acidity and low fertility. when the amount of fertilizer application is large and the soil pH value is very high, it is easy to die.

2. Weeding: the false thrift grass grows vigorously and has high coverage on the surface, so it is difficult for other weeds to invade, even the strong vitality of Cyperus roxburghii and Euphorbia angustifolia are difficult to find opportunities, which reduces the work of weeding to a certain extent.

3. Fertilization: during the growing season of false thrift grass, the amount of nitrogen applied per month should be 0.05 to 0.15 kg per 100 square meters, which is more likely to show symptoms of iron deficiency than blunt grass, and the leaves are often yellow and chlorotic, especially after the application of nitrogen fertilizer. Excessive accumulation of subtilis is easy to occur when the level of maintenance and management is high.

4. Pruning: pruning is one of the most basic measures in all lawn management, which requires considerable manpower and material resources. Because the stems and leaves of false thrift grass lay the ground, the lawn is naturally smooth and beautiful. Even in the growing season from May to September, there is no need for frequent pruning, which saves some machinery and labor costs compared with other lawns.
