Introduction to the ecological habits and distribution of jade fan

Yufan is a 12-volume succulent plant of Liliaceae, which is native to southern Africa. The plant is low and stemless, and the leaves are fleshy and erect. Let's take a look at the ecological habits and distribution of jade fan.

Introduction to the ecological habits and distribution of jade fan

Because of the hot and humid climate, the leaves will be exposed to the soil during cultivation. A variety of transparent patterns will appear on the leaf sections of different varieties. And its horticultural variety "jade fan brocade" on the leaves, there will be yellow or pink markings, is even more rare and precious.

Such as slender black orchid pots or plain fired pottery pots, on the one hand, can make the root system elongate, but also make the root system have a good respiration. When changing the basin, mix some fine-grained magic fertilizer into the soil as base fertilizer, or put some fine-grained red jade soil on the soil surface, which can not only increase drainage, but also look quite beautiful and lovely.

Jade fans like warm, dry and ample and soft light. Resistant to drought and semi-shade, avoid dampness, not resistant to cold, nor resistant to high temperature and strong light.

In summer high temperature, the plant will show a dormant state, when the growth is slow or completely stagnant, can be placed in a cool and ventilated place, give appropriate shade, reduce watering times and number, can prevent plant rot caused by muggy heat and humidity.

It should be placed in a warm place with plenty of light in winter, and the plant can continue to be watered for more than 10 ℃ to make the plant grow normally.

Spring and autumn are the peak periods for plant growth, and there is more water demand. After the surface of the basin soil is dry, sufficient water can be given to keep the basin soil slightly wet without stagnant water. Balanced N, P and K formula flower fertilizer (20:20:20) can be applied in about 10 to 15 days, and 2000 to 2500 times of thin liquid fertilizer can be irrigated to provide nutrients for the growth period. It needs to be placed in a bright and well-ventilated place to keep the plant low and grow, and to make the texture of the "window" more bright and beautiful.

The leaves of the horticultural variety "jade fan brocade" will have yellow or pink markings, which are even more rare and precious. The variety of jade fan is very rich, mainly including green island, Yonggang, mammoth, butterfly, dragon palace, m-type, barren muscle, writing music, Nazca line, volcano, jade fan brocade, Black Tortoise, Haiye, ghost rock city, flow pattern, Baiji, big black, song mill.

Yufan is native to southern Africa and likes warm, dry and ample and soft sunshine. Resistant to drought and semi-shade, avoid yin and dampness, not resistant to cold, afraid of high temperature and strong light. The plant is semi-dormant in high temperature in summer, when the growth is slow or completely stagnant, it can be maintained in a ventilated and cool place, properly shaded, and watered less to prevent plant rot caused by muggy heat and humidity.

Sufficient sunshine is required in winter, and more than 10 ℃ can continue to be watered to make the plant grow normally. If watering is strictly controlled, it can also withstand the low temperature of 5 ℃. Spring and autumn is the peak period of plant growth, keep the basin soil moist without stagnant water, and apply mature dilute liquid fertilizer once every 10 to 15 days. Change the basin once every spring, the basin soil should be loose, fertile, well-drained sandy soil. Because of its deep root system, it is planted in a deeper flowerpot.

Ramet. Combined with changing pots in spring, the method is to remove the young plants beside the mother plant, dry them for 1 to 2 days, and then plant them separately. The newly planted plants do not need to be watered, but can be watered appropriately after a week. Leaf cuttings. In the growing season, the sturdy succulent leaves with semi-lignified base were cut and dried for 2 to 3 days, and then inserted into sand or vermiculite to keep a little moisture. Under the condition of 20 ℃ to 25 ℃, the leaves took root for 3 to 4 weeks. Root.

After breaking off the robust root from the base of the plant, it is still buried in the soil, exposing the soil surface of about 1 cm, and the top will sprout and grow into a new plant. The plants with exuberant growth and well-developed roots can also be pulled up slightly from the soil, cut off 1 meter below the root neck, turn the plants over to dry the wound, and then plant separately, and the rest of the roots remain in the soil and will sprout.

The jade fan changes the basin once every spring, needs to choose the rich and soft, the drainage is good, has the water retention sandy soil, because its root system is deeper, during the growth period, should avoid to make the fibrous root too dry, affects the growth, and the kind of pot also uses the deeper flowerpot to plant, such as the slender black orchid pot or the plain burning pottery pot, on the one hand can make the root system elongate, also can make the root system have good respiration. When changing the basin, a little fine-grained magic fertilizer can be mixed into the soil as the base fertilizer; it can also be put on the soil surface, some fine-grained red jade soil can not only increase drainage, but also look quite beautiful.

The jade fan has ramet, leaf cutting and sowing. In the general method of dividing plants, most of them are carried out together when changing pots in spring, and the young plants next to the mother plant are removed, dried for 1 or 2 days, and then planted in other pots. The seedlings of the new species do not need to be watered immediately, wait for about a week, and the wound is dry. Appropriate amount of water can be irrigated.

When the leaves are inserted during the growing period, cut off the strong fleshy leaves with a little Lignification at the base, dry them for 2 to 3 days, insert them into a mixture of tarantite and vermiculite, and cover them with plastic cloth to keep them moist, which will take root in about 3 to 5 weeks. And some players, will choose the way of artificial pollination, make it cross, produce seeds, through a large number of seedlings, take advantage of the differences between different individuals, to select favorite types and characteristics. Because it belongs to the same genus as Shou, so the sowing method is similar.

The growth rate of the jade fan is slow, and there are not many diseases and insect pests, as long as some idle time can be cultivated, and it does not need to be planted in a larger basin; peculiar plant type, thick leaves, beautiful and changeable transparent texture, placed in desks, windowsills and other narrow space to watch is also quite good.

A few fine-grained red jade soil can not only increase drainage, but also look quite beautiful.
