What are the planting and maintenance skills of maple bonsai? Maple bonsai is a kind of bonsai with high ornamental value, so it is a good choice to plant a pot at home. So how to plant maple bonsai? Let's get to know more about it.

First, when planting maple bonsai, we need to choose a cool environment, but also give sufficient light, but the light intensity should not be too strong, so as not to affect the leaves of the maple.

Second, carry on the fertilization work reasonably. Generally speaking, before sprouting in spring and when spreading leaves, we need to apply liquid fertilizer to bonsai once; apply liquid fertilizer again from August to September; do not apply fertilizer in winter, and do not apply fertilizer in overcast and rainy weather.

Third, reasonable watering is very important for maple trees. Generally speaking, during the growing season, maple trees have a greater demand for water, so they should water more; at the same time, if the weather is relatively dry or hot, in order not to affect the growth of bonsai, we also have to spray water to the ground or the surface of maple leaves; if it is winter, then we should water less, as long as we keep the basin soil wet.

Fourth, do a good job of pruning to make maple bonsai more beautiful:

1. The germination ability of maple is still relatively high, so we should do a good job of pruning in order to have high ornamental value. If there are more new buds sprouting on the trunk, we should wipe out the buds that are not needed or will affect the overall beauty of the maple in the future according to the demand.

2. Maple trees are generally pruned mainly, supplemented by banding. Maple leaves are larger and should not be made into clouds or clouds. Branches and leaves can be trimmed into a natural style with high and low coordination and proper density.

3. The best viewing period for maple trees is usually when the new leaves are just unfolded. If all the leaves are removed at the end of summer and a dilute liquid fertilizer is applied, new leaves can grow in about 20 days, which adds another best viewing period.

Fifth, do a good job of overwintering, so that maple bonsai can pass the winter safely. In winter in the north, the maple bonsai should be moved into the low-temperature room; in the south, as long as the pot is buried in the leeward soil, it can survive the winter safely.

What are the planting and maintenance skills of maple bonsai? The above is the relevant explanation, I hope it can be helpful to everyone.

General maple diseases and insect pests are mainly powdery mildew, caterpillar moth, aphids, etc., should be timely control, only to do a good job of these work, can make their own maple bonsai grow better.
