Planting method and cultivation Management of Ligustrum lucidum

Ligustrum lucidum is a deciduous shrub, which is a hybrid of Phnom Penh and European privet. Leaves larger than Ligustrum lucidum slightly smaller, simple leaves opposite, elliptic or ovate-elliptic, 2-5 cm long. Racemes, florets white. Drupe broad oval, purplish black. The leaves of Ligustrum lucidum are golden, especially in spring and autumn. The golden leaf privet is 1-2 meters high and 1.5-2 meters wide.

1. The survival of grafting should pay attention to maintenance and management: after the scion survives, cut off the rootstock at one time to ensure that the cut is smooth and smooth. Then cut and seal the film or smear it with hand oil to facilitate wound healing. Because the rootstock has strong sprouting and tillering ability, if it is allowed to grow naturally, it will affect the growth of the scion, and even cause death. In daily management, attention should be paid to erasing tiller buds at any time.

2. Standing bracket: the scion after grafting is very delicate, and it is easy to break in case of wind, resulting in loss. Twigs can be used to stand on both sides of the scion.

3. After the scion has survived, it should be stocked in the first year: let it grow naturally without pruning. Make it grow vigorously and accumulate nutrients. In the second year, after sprouting, he began to trim his head and make a normal trim. In this way, the diameter of the spherical crown can reach more than 1 meter after autumn. After grafting and shaping, the golden leaf privet has increased the height of the trunk and the ability of disease resistance, and the ornamental effect is more prominent in greening and landscaping.

Key points of cultivation of Ligustrum lucidum

Because the golden leaf privet is not tolerant to shade, it is not recommended to be cultivated indoors, because it is resistant to pruning, so it is widely used in landscaping. The color of the golden leaf privet will be very bright in the spring and autumn, and some friends will choose to decorate their own courtyard.

Ligustrum lucidum

Ligustrum lucidum is a semi-green shrub of Oleaceae, which is known as "full of gold and jade". Ligustrum lucidum has the advantages of light preference, poor negative tolerance, medium cold tolerance and strong adaptability, and the loose, fertile and winding sandy loam soil is the best. It is used for the combination of words or patterns in Greenland Square, and can also be used for small courtyard decoration.

Ligustrum lucidum has strong adaptability and does not have strict requirements for soil. it can adapt to the climatic conditions and grow well in the south of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River basin in China. Sexual like light, slightly shade-resistant, cold-resistant, not resistant to high temperature and humidity, in Beijing-Tianjin area, good microclimate shelter in front of the building, can maintain no fallen leaves in winter. It has strong disease resistance and few diseases and insect pests.

Cultivation and management of Ligustrum lucidum

Gold leaf privet is called Phnom Penh egg leaf privet, like light, slightly resistant to shade, like warm and moist, suitable for slightly alkaline soil, slightly resistant to cold, strong resistance to air pollution. In urban and rural greening, it is often used for hedgerow. at present, cuttings are commonly used for expanded cultivation.

1. Cuttage preparation and cuttage

In the pruning, select the current year, semi-quality, Phnom Penh obvious robust branches (spring cutting can choose the middle and upper branches of autumn shoots in the first year), cut into cuttings. Ear length 5-10cm, required to have 2 Mel 3 nodes, the upper mouth flat cut, the lower mouth oblique shear, individual larger leaves of each cut and then cut off 1 blade 3 to 1 blade 2, then soak in clean water for 12 to 24 hours, conditional soak with 75ppm2.4-d for half an hour, the effect is better. The cuttings treated above were cut according to the specification of plant spacing 3cm row spacing 8cm. The suitable depth of penetration is from 1 beat 3 to 1 stroke 2 of the cuttings.

2. Plug-in management

The cuttings began to take root 15 to 20 days after cuttage, and the process of root differentiation was basically completed in about 40 days. Special heat preservation and shade should be taken within 40 days after insertion. 0.5% compound solution was sprayed on the leaves every 20 days before transplantation to promote growth. 90 days after insertion, you can choose to change the bed for transplant on cloudy and rainy days. When changing the bed, you must bring soil to transplant, fill the root water in time, and moisturize and shade for about a week according to the weather conditions.
