How are snowballs grown? Any tips?

Xiang Snowball is also called Little White Flower, but her design and color is by no means white. Don't be induced by its name. It belongs to herbaceous flowers that have grown for many years. However, the base of the plant planted, whether it is born in the same year or every other year, will not be lignified. Its branches are creeping, often attached to rock walls, and can also be planted in flowerpots, or as ground covers, etc. Today we will take a look at how this kind of ball flower with a light scent is planted.

First, growth habits

Xiang Snow Ball originally grew in relatively cold areas, so its own cold resistance is relatively strong, but it may be difficult to adapt to the hot environment in the south. I like to stay in cold and sunny places, and I am afraid of much water. it doesn't matter if the soil is dry, as long as it's not submerged in the water, so I don't like places with high humidity.

II. Breeding method

Sowing and cutting are both suitable for small white flowers, but most of them generally use sowing methods. In the north, they are usually sown in spring, and seedlings can be raised in March. Its seeds grow very fast, relatively fast compared to other flowers, and the uniformity of emergence is very good; in the adapted environmental temperature, new seedlings can grow in less than a week, and the transplanted seedlings are still the old rules. If you have three to five leaves, you can pass.

Third, planting skills

1. Soil. When small flowers are planted in the home, most of them are planted in pots, and the soil can be arranged in many ways, such as garden soil plus furnace soil, garden soil plus ceramsite plus coarse sand, grass ash plus furnace soil plus ceramsite, and so on, so as to improve the drainage performance of the soil as far as possible. does not affect the respiration ability of the plant root system. After the nutrient soil is ready, the plant can go into the pot. Be sure to water it at the first time after entering the pot, and put it in a place where there is no strong light, so that the plant can adapt to this environment more quickly.

two。 Put it into the basin. The seedlings of fragrant snowballs are fastidious when they are put into the basin, but they are not just inserted at random. First of all, put the seedlings into the flowerpot with subsoil, and then cover the surroundings with a layer of coarse-grained soil, which can play the role of maximum drainage, and then cover the soil with a good layer of base fertilizer, its height should not reach the new leaves of the seedlings, and it should be lower than the edge of the flowerpot, and the fertilizer should be fully mixed with the soil so as not to concentrate the fertilizer in one place, if it directly touches the root system of the seedling. It is likely to burn the seedlings and affect their growth.

3. Pick the heart. Before flowering, there is a very important step, that is to pick the top leaf center, usually need to be carried out twice, the first is to let the plant grow more lateral branches, the second is to enable the plant to produce more flowers. The plant can grow into a shaped seedling half a month after transplanting, and this is the best time to pick leaves for the first time, and the length of the branches on the top depends on the specific growth of the plant.

Generally, only three to five leaves can be left, and the rest can be removed. Later, you can find that the plant will sprout some side branches and become more rounded and plump, but in order for the plant to bloom more flowers during the flowering period, at this time it is necessary to stop the growth of the branches, the removal of the branches is the same as the first operation, at least the role is different.
