Cultivation and planting methods of plants in Landscape Bonsai

Plants are an indispensable part of landscape bonsai. "Ishimoto is stubborn, but if the tree is alive, it will be spiritual." The flowers and trees in the landscape bonsai can increase the momentum, coordinate the center of gravity and separate levels, which can enhance the reality and beauty of the landscape bonsai.

To plant flowers and trees on mountains and rocks, choose dwarf seedlings with well-developed roots and easy to live, and those with small leaves are better. The size of the seedlings should be coordinated with the proportion of mountains and rocks. Flowers and trees in mountains and rocks should not be planted too densely, moss can only grow in low concave places, and moss on protruding rocks should be eradicated. Only in this way can we highlight the steep mountains and rocks and reflect the natural scenery.

The flowers and trees of the landscape bonsai must be integrated with the mountains and rocks. The trees on the top of the mountain should be short and Qiu qu; planting trees on the back of the mountain should be straight to the top; planting trees on the hillside should not be straight; planting trees on the cliffs of overhanging rocks should be the most old and Qiu qu, and should have a certain degree of drought tolerance. When planting trees at the foot of the mountain and water, you should choose wet trees. In this way, planting is not only in line with the distribution of natural vegetation, but also easy to manage.

Planting method of plants: if it is cancellous stone, caves for planting plants can be retained during stone processing, the caves should be on the side or back of the rocks as far as possible, the opening should be small and the inside should be large, so that the soil is easy to store, which is conducive to plant growth. If it is hard stone, make a cave when gluing the stone. It is best to have direct access to the bottom of the cave because it is easy to draw water. If you cannot reach the bottom directly, there must be a lower outlet at the bottom of the cave so that plants can be planted in the cave. Some do not have the conditions to make caves, you can use brown bark to wrap the root of the plant with mud, tie it to the back of the rock, so that the plant protrudes from the side of the stone. Most of the plants planted on the rocks can draw water by themselves, not necessarily from above; if it is difficult to draw water, you must pay attention to watering regularly to prevent it from drying up. In addition, the plants in the mountain and stone bonsai must be properly configured in order to get a good effect.

Let's do some refreshing bonsai in the summer "agricultural leisure" season.

Summer is hot, farming is getting less and less, summer vegetables are in harvest season, and many flowers have entered a dormant period. In this "agricultural leisure" season, but also want to grow something to have fun, so do a few refreshing bonsai, is a good choice.

Bonsai is one of the excellent traditional arts in China, which is generally made of plants, rocks, soil, water, etc., through artistic creation and horticultural cultivation. It is known as "three-dimensional painting" and "silent poetry". " A horticulturist told the reporter. According to understanding, bonsai can be divided into two categories: tree stump bonsai and landscape bonsai. The former takes trees as the main materials, viewing branches, leaves, fruits and flowers, while the latter mostly uses rocks, water and soil as materials to shape a scaled-down version of the natural scenery. And tree stump bonsai is easier for beginners to use.

Small fresh moss jade

Moss jade is a kind of Japanese bonsai, which began in the Edo period in Japan. it mainly refers to a small bonsai made of a piece of moss, small plants, soil, hemp rope, with containers or directly fixed roots with moss. "it can be said that moss is not only a kind of plant, because its main material is moss, but also a way of planting. It is simple to make, can be hung in the air, and can also be placed on the table as decoration. It is very fresh and fashionable." The horticulturist said.

Materials: small tropical plants, peat, red jade soil, moss, fine hemp rope

Action:

1. Choose a tropical plant, clean the soil from its roots and wash it with clean water.

two。 After mixing peat and laterite, wrap it around the root of the plant and squeeze it into a ball with your hands.

3. Wrap a layer of moss on the outside of the clump of soil and wrap the moss tightly with hemp rope.

4. After the production is finished, it can be hung up or packed with utensils.

Tips:

1. With regard to the selection of plants, the advantage of using tropical plants is that they like a wet environment, which matches the moisturizing effect of moss. However, moss jade can be made with other plants or without plants.

two。 For daily maintenance, spray water several times a day to make it moist, and then give ventilation and proper light. When the humidity is not enough, it will go into dormancy, but as long as there is water, it can recover.

Elegant small bamboo forest

"it is better to eat without meat than live without bamboo. No meat makes a man thin, no bamboo makes a man vulgar. " Since ancient times, the literati and elegant guests all like bamboo and think that it has the air of a gentleman. However, it is strong and straight, handsome and elegant, frost and snow does not wither, evergreen all the year round, it is really not vulgar.

If you also love bamboo, but do not have the advantage of rural bamboo forest, then you can also make it into bonsai, please come home. "if you want to make bamboo bonsai, Buddha belly bamboo is a good choice, this kind of bamboo plant is shorter, bamboo seedlings are green, old bamboo is orange." The horticulturist said. According to understanding, the difference between Buddha belly bamboo and ordinary bamboo is that the bamboo knot is thin, and the internodes are short and inflated, just like the belly of Maitreya Buddha and the folded Luohan, so it is also called Luohan bamboo and dense bamboo.

Materials: Buddha belly bamboo, humus soil and sand soil mixture (bamboo garden soil can also be), utensils

Tools: scissors, small shovels, etc.

Action:

1. Choose a shallow rectangular or oval purple sand basin as a vessel, or a glazed pottery basin.

two。 Fill the basin with a mixture of humus and sandy soil (bamboo garden soil can also be used).

3. Choose 5 plants of different height and height of Phyllostachys pubescens, when dug out from the soil, try to bring more persistent soil (soil already near the root) to improve the survival rate. At the same time, the old root, overlong root and withered root of 5 bamboos were cut off, and the dense branches were cut off at the same time, so as to reduce plant water evaporation and be beneficial to survival.

4. Five tall and short Phyllostachys pubescens were divided into two groups, of which the taller three were located in the center of the vessel as the main body, and the shorter two were on both sides as a foil, and then planted in the basin. Moss and pebbles can be laid on the soil as a landscape.

5. Freshly planted bonsai should be watered thoroughly and maintained in a shaded place for about 10 days, then in a half-shaded and half-sunny place for 5 days, and then carefully maintained in a sunny, well-ventilated, warm and humid environment.

Tips:

1. Buddha belly bamboo likes to be wet, so it should be watered frequently to keep the soil moist, but no water can be accumulated in the basin. Summer is its peak growth period, and the temperature is high, so it should be watered once in the morning and evening.

two。 Phyllostachys pubescens grows faster, and the branches that are not needed for modeling should be cut off in time so as not to consume nutrients.

The definition of bonsai

Bonsai is the creation of artistic beauty, which is similar to landscape painting and landscape gardens, and attaches great importance to freehand brushwork and lyric. Although it imitates nature and takes nature as the blueprint, it is not just simply imitating natural scenery. In the creation, the artistic technique of combining romanticism with realism is often adopted to achieve the aesthetic effect which comes from nature and is higher than that of nature. This is why bonsai is different from potted plants: potted plants are just a way of cultivation, planting trees and flowers in pots. Without artistic processing. Bonsai is the product of a high combination of cultivation techniques and plastic arts, with distinctive local characteristics and beautiful modeling style. At the same time, the trees, mountains and rocks in the bonsai must coordinate with the bonsai bowl and several shelves, and set off each other in order to form a truly perfect bonsai art. In the process of historical evolution, bonsai art has formed two categories: tree bonsai and landscape bonsai. Bonsai with woody plants as the main material, is a living body, and its production technology is more complex, including digging, planting, shaping, climbing, pruning, potting, maintenance and other steps. In art, it is required to have the effect of old dry Qiuzhi, fresh and elegant, vibrant and far-reaching rhyme. Landscape bonsai, with rocks, water and soil as the main materials, is an inanimate material, and its production technology is required to focus on the artistic realm. Whether it is a stack of cockroaches or the shadow of Boguang Island, it should be able to show the splendor of mountains and rivers.
