The growth environment should meet the requirement of thousand-day red in order to breed in order to produce beautiful little red flowers.

In some places, it is called zinghong or fireball, which is a common upright flower in subtropical and tropical areas. its branches are long and the color glossiness of the flowers is very good. After flowering, dry flowers can be invincible for a long time, which is also one of its major characteristics. Its use is also relatively extensive, can make wreaths, flower baskets and other ornaments, today we will take a look at this perennial red is how to grow out.

I. the needs of the growing environment

Bairihong originally belongs to tropical flowers. It can often be seen in southern China that its growth does not require high environmental requirements. It likes sunny, dry and hot areas, that is, it is afraid of flooding, and the soil with a good degree of looseness is a considerable matrix. Its growth temperature is generally above 20 degrees, and even a high temperature of more than 30 degrees has no effect on its growth. But the cold winter may be more difficult for it, too low temperature can easily lead to poor plant growth and frostbite.

II. Methods of reproduction

Seeds can be collected in September. The seeds collected should be properly preserved and can be sown in April. Judging from the growth rate of the plant, they can generally be transplanted in a month. The appearance of Bairihong's seeds is covered with a layer of fluff, and it may also be because of this that the speed of germination is relatively slow, so in order to improve the germination rate of seeds, we can do the treatment of accelerating germination before sowing. The selection of seedling bed, production, and humidity maintenance are all very important, which will directly affect the germination effect of seeds.

June and July, before collecting seeds, is a good time for cutting. generally, several healthy branches are selected directly from the mother plant, which is less than 10 centimeters in length. All the leaves on the branches are cut off and inserted into the soil. Only in this way can the volatilization of foliar water be reduced, the branches can take root faster in the sand bed, and the temperature should be well controlled. If the temperature is lower than 20 degrees, the rooting speed will be slower. It will be a few days slower than the hot environment.

Third, tips for flowering

1. Qianrihong can use some farm manure as base fertilizer when planting, which is of great help to the growth of the plant in the future, and the ability to preserve fertilizer is very strong, but it is not because the base fertilizer is fully done, there is no need to top fertilizer, when the plant grows and matures, the work of topdressing should be done, and a thin fertilizer can be added once in more than ten days, but it should not be diluted too thin.

two。 The flowering period from July to October is hundred-day red. After the flowering period, the plant should be pruned so that it can sprout some new branches, and it can also make the shape of the plant look more smooth and tidy, so that thousand-day red has a higher ornamental value. When the plant grows and forms, it depends on the appropriate removal of the terminal bud, and the coring treatment should determine the number of times according to the specific conditions of flower growth. This operation can not only increase the lateral branch growth of the plant, but also increase the flowering quantity of the plant.

Thousand-day red has the characteristics of undefeated flowers, it can be described as a natural series of dried flowers, coupled with some perfume bags to make a bunch of dried flowers is also very beautiful, and the petals will not fall everywhere. What's more, there are few insect pests, the general flowers and leaves are relatively complete, pruning can be more casual, there is no need to pay attention to the incomplete branches and leaves.
