Hand in hand to teach you 5 tricks for raising iron trees. The leaves grow luxuriantly.

I remember when I was in primary school when I was a child, there were always two pots of iron trees at the school gate. I saw them at school every morning and once after school in the afternoon, but I never saw them blossom. Most of the time, Huahua feels that they have lost their life and stopped growing, but in fact they are alive and well. They have never seen the iron tree blossom until they graduated from Huahua Primary School.

When I was a child, I often heard adults say that iron trees could not blossom in a thousand years. I always thought how lucky it would be if someone saw them blossom with their own eyes.

Today, Huahua suddenly thought of this and wanted to tell you how to make the iron tree blossom.

In fact, iron trees, like other plants, have their own growth cycles, and so are iron trees. However, the growth cycle of the iron tree is much longer than the average plant, and it takes about 15 to 20 years for perennial farming to blossom. It is often said that "the iron tree blossoms for a thousand years" just exaggerates the time and is used to describe that the iron tree is not easy to blossom.

So how to raise the iron tree?

1. Plenty of sunshine

The iron tree is a tropical plant, so it likes light very much. So when we breed, we'd better put the iron tree in the place where the sun shines all the year round, this is mainly because the iron tree pot may be a little big, it is not convenient to move. It is all right to shade the iron tree in summer.

two。 Thin fertilizer is applied frequently

Despite the size of the iron tree, iron tree also needs to be fertilized, and fertilizer can not be applied more, only thin fertilizer can be applied frequently. During the growing period of the iron tree, friends who have the conditions can use the rotten pancake water as fertilizer to fertilize the iron tree. Nitrogen and potassium fertilizer can also be used to promote the growth of iron trees and provide them with the nutrients they need.

3. Rational watering

The iron tree does not like the wet environment. We often see that the soil of the iron tree is generally slightly drier. Therefore, we must grasp the principle of dry rather than wet when watering, and judge not to water according to the moisture of the soil. Water at most twice a week in Spring and Autumn, once every 3-5 days, three times a week in summer, and once every 10 days in winter. Iron trees are very resistant to drought, so we don't have to worry about them dying from drought.

4. Proper pruning

The iron tree can be pruned properly, and spring is the most suitable time to prune it. It is mainly to trim off the old branches and leaves of the iron tree, which will not only make the iron tree more beautiful, but also promote it to grow new branches and leaves, killing two birds with one stone. Almost wait until May or June when the new career can grow out, when the iron tree looks more vigor and vitality!
