Bamboo has been loved by writers and writers since ancient times. Among them, the Buddha belly bamboo is green all the year round, elegant and colorful, after hot and cold snow without withering, the bamboo stalk is erect and empty. Have a reputation for being strong and open-minded. Nowadays, Buddha belly bamboo is often used to make bonsai into Buddha belly bamboo, which is elegant and beautiful. Next, let's take a look at the production method of Buddha belly bamboo bonsai with the editor of Huinong Network.

1. Material selection

There are two sources for making Buddha belly bamboo bonsai. One is that in May or September, the bamboo with multiple culms is cut at the thinner part of the connected underground stem, and a pot of bamboo can be divided into 2-3 new plants. The second is to buy in the flower market. Whether it is the Buddha belly bamboo obtained from the ramet, or the Buddha belly bamboo purchased from the flower market, it is moved into a shallow purple sand basin or glazed pottery basin in May or September for maintenance for a few months, and then put on the shape of a shallow ornamental basin.

2. Bonsai modeling

Bonsai is made of Buddha belly bamboo, mostly in jungle style, to show the natural charm of bamboo forest, but there are also one or two plants to make bonsai. If two Buddha belly bamboos are planted in one pot, they should be large and small, thick and thin, high and low, and always inclined. Erect plants should be tall, large and thick, while oblique plants should be small, thin and low, with the former as the main and the latter as the auxiliary. If the two plants are similar in size and both are upright, this kind of bonsai is not interesting.

According to the size of the pot, 5, 7 and 9 plants are planted in one pot to make jungle-style bonsai. Take 5 plants as an example, according to the size of the plant, they are divided into No. 1-No. 5, which is often made with No. 1, No. 3 and No. 4 as the main body of the bonsai, and No. 2 and No. 5 as the object of the bonsai, which acts as a foil, and a proper distance should be left between the two groups.

3. Bonsai maintenance

(1) Light

In order to raise Buddha belly bamboo bonsai, a place with sufficient light, warm, moist and ventilated should be placed in the spring and autumn. It should be properly shaded when it is hot in summer, such as adding a shade net in the upper part of the maintenance place, or putting bonsai on the balcony where sunshine can be seen in the north of the building sooner or later. At the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, it is better to move indoors for about 8 ℃.

(2) watering

Buddha belly bamboo likes to be wet, especially in the growing season, the basin soil should be kept moist, but the basin should not accumulate water. In the hot summer, water thoroughly in the morning and look for water in the evening. In addition to watering the basin, you should also sprinkle water on the ground. Less watering in winter, such as dusty leaves, to properly spray water to the leaves, so that the leaves remain evergreen and beautiful.

(3) fertilization

In the growing season, the thin organic liquid fertilizer is applied once a month, and "alum fertilizer and water" is applied once in spring and autumn to make the leaves more green. Don't fertilize in winter.

How to make and maintain the bonsai of Buddha belly bamboo

Flower bonsai network guide: today the flower bonsai network editor brings you an article about how to make and maintain the bonsai of Buddha belly bamboo. Let's take a look at it.

Buddha belly bamboo, also known as Luohan bamboo, dense section bamboo. The plant is short, the bamboo seedling is green, and the old bamboo is orange. If the old bamboo is well preserved, its leaves are as green as the young bamboo. 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, hence the name. Buddha belly bamboo can show its chic style no matter it is planted on the ground or in a pot. This kind of bamboo is vigorous and straight, handsome and elegant, but not withered by frost and snow. It grows luxuriantly at 04:00, and is appreciated by both elegance and popular taste. Since ancient times, people have regarded bamboo as a symbol of rigidity, chastity and open-minded virtue. Bamboo, plum, orchid, and chrysanthemum are called "four gentlemen" in ancient times, and bamboo, pine and plum are planted in a pot, that is, they become the famous "old and cold three friends." Su Dongpo, a great poet of the Song Dynasty, wrote a poem:

"it is better to eat without meat than to live without bamboo; without meat makes one thin, and without bamboo makes one vulgar." From the above verses, we can see how fascinated the ancients loved bamboo.

1. Modeling and basin

Bonsai is made of Buddha belly bamboo, mostly in jungle style, to show the natural charm of bamboo forest, but there are also one or two plants to make bonsai. If two Buddha belly bamboos are planted in one basin, they should be large and small, thick and thin, high and low, and always inclined, erect plants should be tall, large and thick, oblique plants should be small, thin and low, with the former as the main and the latter as the auxiliary. If the two plants are similar in size and both are upright, this kind of bonsai is not interesting. According to the size of the pot, 5, 7 and 9 plants are planted in one pot to make jungle-style bonsai. Take 5 plants as an example, according to the plant size, they are divided into No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, No. 4, No. 5. When making, No. 1, No. 3 and No. 4 are often used as the main body of bonsai, and No. 2 and No. 5 are used as the object of bonsai. Play a foil role, and leave a proper distance between the two groups.

In the jungle style, it is better to use a shallow rectangular or oval purple sand basin, followed by a glazed pottery basin. Such as placing some pandas with appropriate size, exquisite workmanship and beautiful shape, it will make bonsai more poetic and picturesque. For example, if you plant three Buddha belly bamboos of different heights in a pot, and then put exquisitely carved rocks in the pot, it will become a beautiful three-dimensional traditional Chinese painting-- "bamboo and stone pictures."

2. Planting and reproduction

The breeding, turning and planting of Phyllostachys pubescens should be in May or September. The method of plant division is often used in reproduction, that is, the plant is deducted from the basin, the persistent soil of the root is removed by bamboo, and the thick roots connected between plants are found and cut off, and then they can be planted. When planting, we should take more lodging soil to improve the survival rate. Combined with ramet and turning basin, the old root, overlong root and withered root should be cut off, and erect branches, drooping branches and over-dense branches should be cut off at the same time, so as to reduce plant water evaporation, benefit survival and make the plant shape more beautiful. Phyllostachys pubescens likes loose, fertile and well-drained acid sandy soil, which is mainly humus soil and a small amount of sandy soil can be used.

3. Maintenance and management

(1) venue. The freshly planted bonsai of Buddha belly bamboo is 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. Because the pot is shallow and the soil is less, it is easy to damage the root system under the hot sun in summer, so it is necessary to cover the shade properly. At the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, when the lowest temperature at night drops to about 5 ℃, it should be moved indoors and the room temperature should be kept at about 8 ℃. Too high room temperature is disadvantageous to the growth in the coming year. In the south, as long as the pot is buried in the leeward soil of the sunny side, it can survive the winter safely.

(2) watering. 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. After moving into the room in winter, there is a lot of dust on the leaf surface, so it is necessary to spray water on the leaf surface properly to keep the leaf green and beautiful.

(3) fertilization. The bonsai of Phyllostachys pubescens should not be fertilized too much, and if the fertilizer and water is too long, the branches and leaves are steep and long, which affects the beauty. From March to September, we can apply thin liquid fertilizer once a month.

(4) plastic surgery. 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. According to its shape, the new bamboo can decide whether to stay or not. If the section is short and belly is large, it should also be left behind, and it should be planted when the plant is divided in September. If the new bamboo is thin and long, and affects the shape, it should be cut off in time.

(5) prevent diseases and insect pests. The diseases and insect pests of Phyllostachys pubescens are less, mainly bamboo borer, aphids and shell insects, which should be eliminated in time.
