Do you like the serenity brought by bamboo? Raising pots of Phoenix tail bamboo bar on the desk can also improve work efficiency.

The ancients said: it is better to eat without meat than live without bamboo. Nowadays, many fastidious people like to keep a clump of bamboo at home, giving people a kind of leisure in a busy city. If you see that you like it very much, but you don't have a big garden in your home, don't be disappointed. Today, I recommend a kind of bamboo suitable for raising on the balcony-Phoenix tail bamboo.

Phyllostachys pubescens is a tufted shrub with slender leaves and lanceolate leaves. And the bamboo trunk is relatively short, dense branches and leaves, beautiful leaf shape, very suitable for potted plants. Phoenix tail bamboo can be trimmed into a small bonsai and placed on a desk or desk, or a large-scale floor-to-ceiling potted plant can be developed. To decorate the small courtyard, can also be placed in the living room, bedroom, with some small landscape stones and accessories, special amorous feelings and interest.

So Phoenix tail bamboo is so beautiful, how to plant and maintain it?

Phoenix tail bamboo likes slightly acidic soil, add more mature soil, increase soil acidity, and then mix loose and breathable soil. If your soil is alkaline, or the water quality is alkaline, you can occasionally dilute some ferrous sulfate when watering to improve it.

Anyone who has dug bamboo shoots should know that the root system of bamboo is very developed, and the horizontal rhizome growth is very strong. Therefore, potted flavor bamboo needs to be changed every year, and the roots should be trimmed at the same time. Otherwise, the bamboo whip at the root of the bamboo will grow crazily and eat up the soil in the basin, thus affecting the growth.

Phoenix tail bamboo likes a warm environment, but it needs to move back indoors or shade it in summer. Because of the high temperature in summer, long-term exposure will cause the leaves of Phyllostachys pubescens to turn yellow, and finally the yellow leaves fall off. So in the summer, use small spray cans to spray water to the leaves and the surrounding area to increase the humidity in the air and ensure that the Phoenix tail bamboo also keeps the green scenery in summer.

The growth environment of Phyllostachys pubescens can not be lower than zero in winter, so it is best to move back indoors in winter, and spray bottles are needed to increase humidity when the air is dry.

Potted Phyllostachys pubescens should not be fertilized too much and a small amount of compound fertilizer should be applied once a month. Because potted Phyllostachys pubescens is mainly used for ornamental, applying too much fertilizer will make the plant too tall. Of course, the Phoenix tail bamboo raised in the small yard can be fertilized more to make it strong and tall.
