Fast old pile. "

Some flower friends will confuse golden branches and jade leaves with Yushu. In fact, in some places, both are called Yushu, or there are big Yushu and small Yushu. In fact, the two plants are not plants of the same family and genus, and the relationship is actually relatively far away. However, both grow slowly, and many flower friends raise a lot of people who are not very long.

-Yushu-

Yushu is a succulent plant of the family crassulaceae, which can grow to 3 meters tall. Yushu leaves shape is more strange, the leaves are thick and smooth, like a piece of Jasper, vigorous and simple branches like a big tree style. Make bonsai, like jade bonsai, elegant, beautiful scenery.

The maintenance of Yushu is relatively simple, the adaptability is strong, and the requirement of soil is not high, but it requires good drainage, so it is not suitable to be planted in clay loam. Yushu is more resistant to drought, usually watering can not dry without watering, watering is thoroughly, so it is not easy to die.

If you want Yushu to grow quickly and grow into a small old pile, you should pay attention to the following points.

1. Pour some "wooden" water

During the growing period, it can be fertilized once a month, mainly nitrogen fertilizer in the early stage, no fertilizer in summer and phosphorus and potassium fertilizer in autumn. Although Yushu is tolerant of barren, it should be fertilized properly in order to grow quickly. Nitrogen fertilizer can be used as the main fertilizer in spring, which is beneficial to the growth of branches and leaves of Yushu. It is not suitable to fertilize again in the hot summer, and when it is cool in autumn, it can be mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer.

Potash fertilizer plays a very important role in plant growth, one of which is conducive to the formation of tough stratum corneum, hard epidermis and thick cell wall, which can promote Lignification and silicification, and make stems harder and thicker.

Typical potash fertilizer and water are plant ash, potassium dihydrogen phosphate and so on. In autumn, plant ash water or 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate fertilizer water can be applied once a month, which is conducive to making new branches strong and conducive to winter.

two。 Bask in more sun

Yushu is a very sunny plant, usually can not lack of light, although it is also more shady, but if shaded for a long time, the branches are fragile and easy to grow. Especially in winter, if you can put it in a sunny place, many strong old plants can blossom in spring.

3. Pruning long branches

After summer, Yushu can be pruned properly. Some Yushu after flowering, some residual flowers, can be cut off. In summer, due to proper shade, many jade trees will appear some long branches, which can be pruned according to the round and plump shape of one yuan, which can give a beautiful shape on the one hand, and concentrate nutrients on the old branches on the other hand, so that the old branches can grow more healthily.

4. Proper water control in autumn and winter

Yushu itself is relatively drought-tolerant and does not require much water. In autumn and winter, if water is properly controlled, it is not only conducive to the formation of Lignification, but also conducive to Yushu winter.

-Golden branches and jade leaves-

Portulaca oleifera, the scientific name of Portulaca oleracea, is a perennial evergreen fleshy shrub of Portulaca oleraceae. the golden branch and jade leaves planted on the ground can grow up to 4 meters tall, which is a giant compared with our usual potted plants. The old stem of golden branch and jade leaf is vigorous and simple, the leaf is small and exquisite, the shape is shiny, or complicated and colorful, or simple and elegant, maintenance is also relatively simple, deeply loved by flower friends.

Golden branches and jade leaves have the advantages of simple maintenance and strong adaptability. Loose, fertile and well-drained sandy soil can be used, and a little gravel or tiles can be put at the bottom of the basin to facilitate drainage. Jinzhiyu and drought-resistant, not resistant to waterlogging, basin soil should be dry rather than wet, generally can be dry and thoroughly poured. High temperature in summer, in a dormant state, to less watering, you can spray a little water mist to the leaves every day to replenish water.

In the process of maintenance, pay attention to the following points, which can turn golden branches and jade leaves into small old piles.

1. Trim shapes frequently

The sprouting power of golden branches and jade leaves is strong and resistant to pruning. In the normal growth process, it can be often trimmed to maintain a beautiful plant shape, which is also conducive to the sturdiness of the old branches. For some diseased weak branches, dense branches, cluster branches pruned, pruned golden branches and jade leaves, to avoid rain and strong light exposure, should avoid causing infection or burns at the cutting site.

When trimming the outer outline, it can be referred to as triangle, which is more stable and graceful. Golden branches and jade leaves are fleshy roots, which are mainly trimmed and supplemented by aluminum wire.

two。 Pour some "wooden" water

In order to promote the growth of golden branches and jade leaves, rotten liquid fertilizer can be applied once a month, and fertilization can be stopped in high temperature summer and low temperature winter. In autumn, we should give priority to phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, and appropriately increase the content of potassium fertilizer, which is a necessary element for the growth of plant cell wall, which can enhance the toughness of plant tissue and form hard epidermis and stratum corneum, so as to achieve the effect of Lignification.

The commonly used wood water is plant ash water, and potassium dihydrogen phosphate aqueous solution. Dilute the plant ash with water 10 times, set aside for one night, take the supernatant and use it to water the flowers. Or 0.2% aqueous solution prepared with potassium dihydrogen phosphate, which can be used once a month to enhance Lignification.

3. Keep it in a place with plenty of sunshine for maintenance

Golden jade leaves like the sunny environment, although it is also more shady, but should not be placed for a long time, not only easy to grow, the color is not glossy. If there is enough sunshine, the branches are stronger and the color is purplish red. But it is best to take proper shade in summer to prevent sunburn.

4. Proper watering and water control

Golden branches and jade leaves are drought-resistant and not resistant to moisture, so they generally have to wait until the basin soil is completely dry before watering. But in the Spring and Autumn period, the growth is more exuberant, watering can be a little bit more, but it is still dry. Dormancy in summer, less water demand, we should pay attention to water control to prevent rotting roots. Winter is also dormant, watering should be controlled and maintained in the sunny place, which is conducive to the formation of plant Lignification.

The golden branches and leaves of Yushu are not afraid to grow slowly.

You can become a small old pile with a few simple moves.
