Key points of Culture methods of Household potted Flowers Huilan

Brief introduction of Huilan

Cymbidium is a terrestrial herb of the genus Cymbidium of Orchidaceae. The root is thicker and shorter, the base is slightly thicker than the front end of the root, and there are no branches. The pseudobulb is inconspicuous, clustered and oval in shape. Flowers are often yellowish green with deep purplish red veins and spots; flowers are usually rich in fragrance. One stem has many flowers, often 6-15, fragrant.

Huilan is native to China and is one of the oldest and most popular orchids in China. In ancient times, it is often called "Hui". "Hui" refers to the central "Huixin" of Chinese orchids, and is often named "Huizhi" with Angelica dahurica. Cymbidium is a rare species in China, which is a national second-class key protected wild species, distributed in the south of Qinling, north of Nanling and southwest, and is one of the more hardy orchid varieties.

Culture method of Cymbidium

1. Ensure the light.

Cymbidium likes light, except in the hot summer season, can accept direct light, high temperature season should be shaded by about 30%, in order to promote the formation of flowers, while preventing scorched leaves.

2. Temperature.

Cymbidium is native to low latitudes and high altitude. the suitable temperature for growth is from 10 ℃ to 25 ℃. It is suitable for overwintering and about 10 ℃ at night.

3. Watering and moisturizing.

Cymbidium has a high demand for moisture, and it should not be too dry during the growing period. in principle, it should be watered as soon as it is dry, and it must be watered thoroughly. It can be watered every three or four days in spring, autumn and winter, and the watering times should be gradually increased with the increase of temperature. It needs to be watered 2 to 3 times a day in hot summer, and foliar water is often sprayed to increase air humidity to avoid yellow leaves.

4. Rational fertilization.

During the growing period of Cymbidium, thin fertilizer should be applied frequently, and thin chemical fertilizer or compound fertilizer can be applied. If more bone meal and mature bean cake fertilizer are applied, the flowers will be larger and more. Liquid fertilizer should be diluted at 1 ∶ 1000 and applied once every 10 days. Sufficient fertilizer should be applied before flowering, and no fertilizer should be applied during flowering and midsummer.

5. Facilities.

Cymbidium is generally cultivated in plastic greenhouse or heating greenhouse, and the cultivation in plain area should be equipped with alpine base to promote flowering over summer. At present, Yunnan is the main producing area of Cymbidium. Plastic greenhouses are generally used, which need to be heated in winter. When the temperature rises in summer, the plastic film in the greenhouse should be removed and replaced with shade nets.

6. Pick buds every month.

The pseudobulm of Cymbidium generally contains more than 4 leaf buds. In order not to disperse the nutrition, the new buds and their growing points must be removed completely. Picking buds should be carried out before the new flowering period, picking buds once a month, so as to concentrate nutrition, strengthen the mother bulb, and make the flowers bloom bigger and more. Born in moist, open and well-drained places; 700-3000 m above sea level.

Culture methods and matters needing attention of Cymbidium

Culture methods and matters needing attention of Cymbidium

Brief introduction:

Cymbidium, also known as Simbilan and cicada orchid. Orchidaceae, Orchid plants. They are some epiphytic large flower species and artificial hybrids of Cymbidium native to India, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam and southern China. Cymbidium is a general term for the varieties of Cymbidium which are cultivated by artificial hybridization with bright color and large flowers. There are about 48 species of Cymbidium. At present, there are nearly 20 original species used as hybrid parents, mainly epiphytes with large flowers and a small number of terrestrial species.

How to raise Cymbidium

Cymbidium is not a species of natural products, but produced by artificial hybridization. it first appeared in the United Kingdom in 1889, and then spread to Europe and the United States and other places, swept the foreign flower market. At present, Cymbidium has become the most quality category of orchids, with nearly 20000 cultivated varieties.

The tissue culture period of Cymbidium is longer, which is about 3 years. When the tissue culture seedling carries on the flower bud differentiation, it means that it has entered the growth period, that is, the normal flowering and growth. In the stage of reproductive growth, the lateral buds of the guardrail gradually develop into flower buds, and then the scape is produced. Generally speaking, the formation of flower buds is on the pseudobulbs formed by new buds, and basically each pseudobulb can form 1-2 flower buds.

After the formation of the flower bud, in order to make it blossom normally and the flower branches are beautiful, it is necessary to control the temperature around it. If the temperature is outside its normal growth range, it will cause its elongation and growth to be inhibited, which is not conducive to its normal flowering. The optimum temperature range for the growth of Cymbidium is 10-25 ℃, and the temperature should be controlled at night. It should not be too cold, and it should be about 10 ℃. Especially during the flowering period, the temperature should be strictly controlled. If you need to interfere with its flowering period to make it bloom longer, you can also maintain the temperature at 5-15 degrees Celsius during flowering, which can extend the flowering period for a quarter.

Culture methods of Cymbidium:

Propagation methods of Cymbidium:

The propagation of Cymbidium is usually propagated by ramets, which is not only simple, but also has a high success rate. The ramet of Cymbidium is best carried out during the dormancy period after flowering, when the flower does not need too much nutrients and the new bud has not yet grown, so it is more suitable for ramet. Cymbidium needs to take several steps before dividing its plants. the first step is to dry it properly for a period of time to make its roots white and soft. Then the orchid seedlings with 2-3 false phosphorus stems are cut and the cutting wound can be smeared with sulfur powder or carbon powder to prevent its infection. After intercepting, let it dry for 1-2 days and then pot, it can grow into a new plant. Generally speaking, robust plants can be divided only once every 2-3 years, not too frequently. New plants can't be watered immediately, but they can spray water on the leaves to prevent them from drying up and falling off.

Culture methods and matters needing attention of Cymbidium

Cymbidium first bright light and refreshing and humid environment, in indoor breeding, we should pay attention to its temperature control and maintenance. The main points for attention in the culture of Cymbidium are as follows.

1. Fertilization: the fertilizer content in the growing period and catalytic period of Cymbidium is different, so it can not be generalized. In the growing period, it is necessary to apply a mixture of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, while in the catalytic period, it is necessary to appropriately increase the content of phosphorus and potassium, usually at 1:2:2. Fertilizers should also be strictly controlled by PH, which is usually between 5.8and 6.2mm. If the object of fertilization is small seedlings, its fertilizer concentration should be controlled at 3500 to 4000 times, while for medium and large seedlings, it should be reduced to about 2000-3500 times. In addition to summer, it is generally every three days to apply fertilizer, high temperature in summer, keep 1-2 times a month.

two。 Organic fertilizer: if the plant is in the tissue culture period, it should be applied once a month, which is composed of bean cake and bone meal at the ratio of 2:1 during the growing period.

3. Watering: watering and fertilization are generally used alternately, usually once a day in May and September. The high temperature in summer is twice a day from July to August. After entering the autumn, the flowering period can be watered every 2-3 days.

The flowering period of Huilan:

The florescence of Cymbidium is usually from October to April of the following year, which is its natural florescence. However, in order to achieve the long-term effect of blooming, many people now choose to use manual intervention in flowering. Strict management and maintenance is needed between the flowering stages of Cymbidium.

For example, light, to often turn the pot, so that the leaves of the plant can be evenly illuminated, will not produce the phenomenon of crooked. During its flowering period, attention should be paid to avoid being exposed to light for a long time, to prevent the color distortion of its flowers, and to prolong the florescence.

During the flowering period of Cymbidium, it is very sensitive to moisture, so it is difficult to control humidity. If it is too dry, it will cause the rhizome to shrink and the flowers will not grow normally. On the contrary, its root will also cause anoxic decay because of who divides too much, which is easy to cause diseases and insect pests. During its flowering period, it is necessary to give priority to wetting and strictly control moisture, preferably in the form of spray to ensure the moist and clean leaves, but to be careful not to spray on the flowers, but only on the leaves.

During the flowering period, it has a high demand for nutrition, especially phosphorus, potassium and other elements, which are most needed for flowering. Therefore, fertilizers should be replenished regularly. Generally, 0.1% 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate aqueous solution can be applied every month. In order to prevent the excessive dispersion of nutrients, it is also necessary to cut flowers and trim some residual flowers to promote the growth of other normal flowers and avoid the consumption of nutrients.

Cymbidium flowers:

The nickname of Cymbidium is Cymbidium, which has different nicknames in different countries. For example, in Japan, it is called "East Aram" and in Europe and America it is called "New Beauty Orchid". The flower posture of Cymbidium is rough and unrestrained, which has both the elegance of national orchid and the beauty of foreign orchid. Its flower language is rich and peaceful, noble and graceful.

Price of Cymbidium:

The price of Cymbidium varies from year to year according to the market. Generally speaking, during the holidays, the price of the flowers will rise accordingly. It also needs to be divided according to its quality. generally speaking, the wholesale price of the best Cymbidium with more than 4 arrows is 150-200 per pot. And in florist shops all over the country, it will go up a little bit. The mid-range of 3-4 arrows is about 100-150, and the price of Cymbidium is less than 100 yuan.

In addition, branches such as Lingxiao, cloves and grapes can be cut for sand storage and cut again next spring.

3. Excellent varieties of grafted plum blossom, such as bone red and cinnabar, can be used in December to dig up the rootstocks and split or cut the rootstocks, then plant them on the seedling bed according to a certain row spacing, bury the soil above the grafting site, or even cover most of the grafted ear, pay attention not to seep into the joint when watering, cover the plastic film to keep warm and moisturize, and then remove the covered plastic film in spring after the scion sprouts. Use the excavated wild rose plant to bud the rose of the superior variety, or use the robust branch segment of the Elizabeth rose variety (10 to 12 cm long) to cut or split the scion of the superior variety at the top, and then sow the grafted Elizabeth ear segment into a loose seedbed. The grafting part can be buried in the sandy soil, do not infiltrate into the interface when watering, cover the plastic film to keep moisture and heat preservation, remove the covered plastic film after the scion sprouts in the next spring, and then cut the binding belt of the joint with a blade after it is completely alive. In addition, it can also be bagged indoors to moisturize the abdomen and connect the red maple.

The seeds of Cymbidium should be sown as they are picked.

The main woody ornamental plants that can collect seeds in December are: rose, wisteria, privet, lobular privet, pyracantha, rich seeds, holly, camphor, and heather. After treatment, these seeds are basically required to sprout in sand and can not be sown until the seeds are white in the coming year. Under dry storage, it is easy to lose vitality, resulting in the failure of sowing and breeding in the coming year.

7. Transplanting and planting herbaceous flowers that can be planted in flower beds and flower beds in December are: Carnation, kale, pansy, goldfish grass, calendula, daisies and so on. Some grass flowers can also be put in the greenhouse after potting, such as daisies, calendula, goldfish grass, kale, carnation, pansy and so on, which can be used for street display next spring.
