Maintenance and management Guazi Huang Yang likes to be wet and needs to be watered frequently to prevent the leaves from falling off due to water loss. The period from May to August is the peak growth period of Populus tomentosa, which can be combined with watering and applying thin rotten cake fertilizer for several times. Always pay attention to pruning overgrown branches, overlapping branches and extra branches that affect the shape of the tree. The fruits of melon seeds and yellow poplars should be picked in time so as not to consume nutrients. Generally speaking, small and medium-sized bonsai can be changed for 2 to 3 years and once every 5 years for small and medium-sized poplars. Plants with weak growth should be turned over in time. Combined with changing the basin, cut off some of the over-long and dense old roots, replace the new culture soil and replant.

The main diseases and insect pests of Populus tomentosa are the larvae of shell insect and leaf roll moth and soot disease. The control of leaf roll moth larvae and shell insects can be sprayed with 1500 times of dichlorvos. The key to the prevention and control of soot disease is to often spray water on the leaves and wash dust.

Melon seed and yellow poplar bonsai has dense branches and leaves and evergreen four seasons. It is not only a good indoor decorative plant, but also has a strong adsorption capacity to sulfur dioxide, chlorine, hydrogen sulfide, hydrogen fluoride and other toxic gases, and has the ability to absorb poisonous gas and purify air. It is a veritable indoor "evergreen purifier".
