Propagation methods of healthy potted flowers

1. Sowing is carried out in spring and autumn.

2. The split plant method is combined with the renewal of old plants, which is mostly used for persistent root herbaceous plants.

3. The cutting methods include leaf cutting, leaf bud cutting, branch cutting, root cutting and so on.

First, the efficacy and function of golden cherry fruit

1. Antibacterial and anti-inflammatory: Golden cherry extract can kill Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, and can be used to treat diseases caused by Staphylococcus aureus or Escherichia coli infection.

2. Reducing blood lipids: Golden cherry fruit contains fatty acids, alcohol, mania and soap, which can reduce blood lipids and reduce fat deposition in blood vessels, which can be used for the treatment of atherosclerosis.

3. Relieving cough and relieving asthma, anti-spasm: wheezing cough is mostly caused by lung qi. Golden cherry taste is sour and astringent, which can collect lung qi and relieve cough and asthma. Modern research has found that golden cherry contains anti-smooth muscle spasm ingredients, which can prevent gastrointestinal and tracheal spasm.

4. Shrink urine and stop enduria. Golden cherry fruit contains a lot of acidic substances and saponins, which can restrict the sphincter of bladder, prolong the interval of urination and increase the amount of urine each time. It can be used to treat enuresis and urination frequency.

5, solid essence shrinks urine, astringent intestines stop diarrhea: Golden cherry contains a lot of acidic substances, soap, etc., which can not only prevent spermatorrhea in men and too much in women, but also astringent intestines and prevent diarrhea caused by ineffective restraint of spleen deficiency.

6. Golden cherry nutrition: Golden cherry fruit has a unique flavor, honey flavor and delicate fragrance, and its nutrition is very rich. It contains sugar (mainly reducing sugar such as fructose), citric acid, malic acid, tannin, vitamin, more than 20 kinds of amino acids, 18 kinds of mineral elements, resin and saponins, especially vitamin C and reducing sugar. According to the determination, the content of vitamin C1009 mg per 100g fresh golden cherry pulp is second only to Rosa roxburghii, which is 2 times that of fresh jujube, 10 times that of Actinidia deliciosa and 30 times that of citrus. Secondly, golden cherry is rich in zinc and selenium, which are essential trace elements with specific health care and anti-cancer effects.

Second, the culture method of golden cherry.

1. Soil: potted cherry trees should pay attention to drainage, ventilation and the combination of various nutrients. The ratio is garden soil: rotten leaf soil: Rice chaff ash = 5:3:2. It is suitable for turning pots, pruning roots and changing soil before and after overwintering every year.

2. Fertilization: Golden cherry likes fertilizer, and the base fertilizer is mainly slow-acting organic fertilizer, adding liquid fertilizer and water once every semimonthly, which can always keep the leaves thick, dark green and shiny. Before sprouting in early spring, one thick liquid fertilizer can be applied, no fertilizer can be applied at flowering stage, another liquid fertilizer can be applied after blooming in June, a medium liquid fertilizer can be applied again when the fourth or fifth axillary bud is about to sprout in September, and rotten organic fertilizer can be applied in December dormant period to overwinter.

3. Watering: Golden cherry keeps the soil moist and dry during winter dormancy. At the beginning of spring, branches and leaves grow, properly increase the amount of water, and irrigate once in the morning and evening. It is necessary to increase the amount of water in the growing season and flowering season, high temperature in summer, the evaporation of water is increased, and water is watered once every morning and evening to avoid sun exposure. When watering at high temperature, a small amount of water should seep out from the bottom of the basin each time. Do not splash water on the leaves when watering to prevent diseases.

4. Pruning: the golden cherry must be fully pruned after a period of blooming every season. It is generally appropriate to trim lightly, cut off the blooming residual flowers and thin, crossed and overlapping branches in time, and trim them into a natural happy shape to make the plant beautiful and prolong the flowering period.

How to cultivate Aloe vera in potted plants

Aloe is a succulent herb of Liliaceae for many years. It has edible, cosmetic and ornamental value. Aloe is not a sweet fruit, people like aloe mainly because of its health care function and nutritional value. It contains a large number of amino acids, vitamins, polysaccharides, anthraquinones, a variety of enzymes, minerals and other elements, often used with sterilization, anti-inflammation, excretion of toxins, known as "panacea", "family doctor", "natural beautician". Let's talk about how to cultivate potted aloe vera.

Culture methods of potted aloe vera:

1. The method of potting

Before putting on the basin, put a piece of broken tile at the bottom of the basin and press it on the permeable hole of the basin bottom, which can not only keep the drainage, but also will not leak the basin soil. When potting, first straighten the aloe seedlings in the middle of the basin, let the roots stretch as far as possible, fill the soil to cover the roots, and then gently lift the seedlings up and down, and compact them slightly, so that the roots are in close contact with the basin soil, and pier the basin soil. then add the basin soil to keep 2cm with the edge of the basin, and pay attention to straighten the seedling as far as possible. Finally, slowly pour water into the basin.

2. Change the basin

Potted aloe usually needs to be changed once every two years, and it is better to change the pot from April to May in spring and September to October in autumn every year. When changing the basin, it is very important to master the correct de-basin technology. In the process of depotting, the soil mass should be kept intact and the root system should not be damaged as far as possible. Can turn the pot plant upside down, the left hand holds the basin soil, the right hand palm fiercely knocks the basin edge, even kicks several times, the basin and the old basin soil natural separation. Then move the aloe and soil mass together into a larger new basin, and then add new basin soil around the new basin, then compact the basin soil and pour water through it. After changing the basin, you still need to keep it in a semi-shady place for a period of time, and then move to a sunny place for maintenance after completely slowing down the seedlings.

3. Fertilization

Because of the wide adaptability of potted aloe, it should be planted in sandy soil with water and fertilizer conservation, moist soil and good ventilation. Potted aloe makes the general use of rotten leaf soil and coarse sand mixed with rotten horse dung, dried manure, chicken and duck manure is better. Aloe usually does not apply fertilizer, the growth period can also be applied 2-3 times mature thin liquid fertilizer, or Amoy rice water is better, it is not appropriate to apply too thick fertilizer to water, potted aloe should avoid long-term stagnant water, the soil is too wet will lead to plant root hypoxia, gradually rot; daily life can spray its leaves to keep the surrounding air moist, when the soil should be watered.

Points for attention in aloe culture:

1. Pay attention to temperature. Aloe is afraid of cold and stops growing at about 5 ℃ and frostbite at 0 ℃. Therefore, the culture temperature of aloe vera grows fastest when the temperature is 15-35 ℃.

2. Aloe is afraid of stagnant water. Aloe vera needs to be born in places with good drainage performance, so when planting, the soil can be mixed with some gravel to prevent soil consolidation, reduce the water permeability of aloe roots and hinder root respiration.

3. Aloe needs photosynthesis. Like other plants, aloe needs sunlight to grow. For the newly planted aloe, it is best to let the aloe see the sun in the morning and avoid being exposed to direct sunlight at noon.

4. Black spot disease is the main factor affecting the growth of aloe, which is not only common, but also serious. The occurrence and prevalence of black spot disease is mainly due to heavy rain and low temperature, which is generally obvious in spring. In the prevention and control measures, prevention should be given priority to, and the comprehensive control methods of agricultural cultivation measures and pesticides should be adopted to clear ditches and reduce soil moisture, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing harm.

5. Attention should be paid to watering in summer. Aloe likes light and heat resistance, but it should also prevent drought when the summer temperature is high and precipitation is low. Proper watering can make aloe grow rapidly. Watering can not be excessive, usually once every 5-10 days.

6. Apply fertilizer with aloe. Fertilizer is indispensable to any plant. Aloe needs not only nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, but also some trace elements. In order to ensure that aloe is a green natural plant, try to use fermented organic fertilizer, cake fertilizer, chicken manure, compost can, maggot worm manure is more suitable for growing aloe.

After many years of growth of the old aloe plant, after growing to a certain height, it is easy to appear lodging phenomenon, affecting the ornamental, so cut off at the leaf base of 7 cm, using the planting method, the old aloe plant can be rejuvenated. The above is the way to cultivate potted aloe. I believe that through your careful care, it will be able to make it full of vitality.
