The cultivation method of Happiness Tree

Happiness tree is an ornamental plant, which is often seen in many home and office environments, but many people do not know how to cultivate happiness trees. Happiness trees like hot, humid and sunny environments. Resistant to high temperature, afraid of cold, should be moist, avoid drying. Born in valleys or in open forests on flat land. Loam and sandy loam which are loose and fertile, well drained and rich in organic matter should be used for cultivation.

Propagation techniques of Happiness Tree

1. Sowing: at the end of December, when the capsule is close to cracking and the seeds are fully mature, the long-striped capsule is harvested, dried, the winged seeds are removed, rubbed and removed from the membranous seed wing fragments, and the seeds are dried and stored for sowing in the coming spring. It can also be soaked for 2 to 3 hours and then mixed in wet sand, spread thinly in a large plastic basin in the shed, keep the seeds and sand moist, often check to prevent mildew, and then sow seeds after seed germination. The dried seeds were soaked for 3 to 4 hours from March to April, then they were slightly spread out and dried, then mixed with sand and scattered on the made seedbed, lightly covered with thin soil and covered with film to moisturize. After the seeds emerged, the film was removed and shaded in a shade shed. For sale.

2. Cuttage: from March to April, when the ambient temperature is about 15 ℃, cut 1-2-year-old lignified branches, about 15 cm to 20 cm long, delete all leaves, the lower incision is best located at 0.5cm below the node, and cut it on the sandy soil seedling bed, the cutting depth is about 1 / 3 to 1 row 2 of the ear length. During the period of undercutting, healing and rooting, water should be sprayed to keep the seedbed moist. After its intact root system, it can be transplanted with soil mass into the pot, preferably 2 to 3 plants co-planted, which can be formed and sold as soon as possible.

3. Crimping. Ring peeling can be carried out between March and April under the nodes of 2-year-old strong branches or stems, and the peeling width is generally 2 to 3 times the diameter of the pressed stem. Under the ring peeling mouth, tie a piece of plastic film of 15cm × 20cm. The nozzle and tie it against the thick trunk to prevent the droop from being broken by the wind. At the end of autumn, after the ring peeling mouth grew a better root system, it was cut off from the mother plant and planted in a pot.

The cultivation method of Happiness Tree

1. Temperature: bean trees prefer warm and hot environment, and the suitable temperature for growth is 20 ℃ to 30 ℃. During the hot summer, when the ambient temperature is more than 30 ℃, it is necessary to build a shed to cover the shade, increase the environment and foliar spray, or move it to a cool and ventilated place with shade. At the end of autumn, when the ambient temperature drops to about 10 ℃, it should be moved to the shed in time. During the overwintering period, it is best to maintain a greenhouse temperature of not less than 8 ℃, and a minimum of 5 ℃, so as to avoid cold injury or fallen leaves. Family potted plants can be moved to rooms with air conditioners or electric heaters to ensure that the room temperature is not less than 8 ℃, so that they can survive the winter safely. Note: keep the temperature of the greenhouse for planting bean trees not lower than 8 ℃ in winter, otherwise it is prone to chilling injury or even death of the whole plant.

2. Illumination: bean trees are light-loving plants, and they can also tolerate shade slightly, either in full sunshine or in semi-shady environment. Its seedlings are more shade-tolerant, and a shed should be built to cover the light in summer. Potted plants should be placed in front of a well-lit window or indoors during indoor display. If you leave it in a dimly lit room for a long time, it is easy to cause fallen leaves. Family potted plants can be placed in front of the window or in front of the balcony during the overwintering, so that they can receive more light.

3. Moisture: the cultivation of bean trees requires a relatively humid soil and display environment. During the seedling raising period, the seedbed should be kept moist, and more attention should be paid to water supply in the high temperature and dry season after summer. Potted bean trees, in order not to grow too tall, can properly control watering when sprouting new shoots in spring to keep the potted soil relatively moist. In addition to keeping the basin soil moist, the potted plants displayed indoors should be sprayed with water 2 to 3 times a day during the high temperature season. If the plants are shelved outside in summer and autumn, we must strengthen the water spraying of the plants and the surrounding environment to create a cool and humid environment. Winter put in the indoor plant, as the general indoor temperature are lower than 10 ℃, the plant into a dormant state, can not be watered too much, so as to avoid stagnant water rotten roots, every 2 to 3 days before and after noon in fine weather, spray the plant with slightly warm water, in order to maintain its elegant appearance, can also increase environmental humidity. In addition, bean trees can also be hydroponically cultured.

4. Soil: for potted bean trees, the culture soil with loose and fertile, good drainage and ventilation and rich in organic matter should be selected. It is usually mixed with 5 parts of garden soil, 3 parts of rotten leaf soil, 1 part of mature organic fertilizer and 1 part of river sand. Loosen the soil once a month during the growing season to ensure that the roots are always in a good state of penetration. During the rainy season, for potted plants shelved in the open environment, the pot soil should be checked in time after each heavy rainfall, and the stagnant water in the basin should be removed as soon as possible, and the pot should be turned over and changed after the pot soil is dry. In general, small and medium-sized plants as family potted plants can be turned once a year when they come out of the house at the beginning of April to meet the requirements of soil fertility for their annual growth.

5. Fertilizer: potted bean trees should not only add an appropriate amount of rotten cake fertilizer and 3% multi-component compound fertilizer to the culture soil, but also give topdressing continuously. Quick-acting liquid fertilizer can be applied once a month during the growing season, and rotten cake fertilizer and water can usually be used. A small number of potted plants in the family, or large potted plants displayed in public places for a long time, can be buried regularly with a small amount of multi-component slow-release compound fertilizer particles, or 0.2% urea and 0.1% potassium dihydrogen phosphate mixed solution. Potted plants in the north can be applied 0.3% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution continuously for 2 to 3 times after the Mid-Autumn Festival, so as to increase the cold resistance of the plant and help it pass the winter safely. Topdressing should be stopped when the temperature is higher than 32 ℃ in summer and lower than 12 ℃ in late autumn and early winter.
