An introduction to the golden cactus

Golden cactus is a kind of cactus, its life is very long, and it is easy to cultivate it. Next, let's learn about this plant.

The golden cactus, also known as the yellow thorn, is a very popular cactus species. Stem globose, solitary or fascicled, 1.3 m tall, 80 mm in diam. The top of the ball is densely covered with golden woolly. There are also several main varieties in cultivation, such as Nitraria, wild thorn, golden amber crown and so on. Wild Camellia sinensis is an extremely endangered rare plant. It is the representative of the strong thorn ball cactus. The thorn seat of Jinhu is very large, dense hard thorns, golden thorns, then brown, 3 meters long, thorns 3-5, thick, slightly curved. Flowering from June to October, peanuts in woolly clumps at the top of the ball, and the kaleidoscope is covered with pointed scales.

This species is the most attractive plant in the cactus class. It has round green spheres and hard golden thorns of steel. The thorn seat is very large, dense hard thorns, golden thorns, and then brown, with radiation thorns 8-10 minutes long, medium thorns 3-5 meters long, thicker, slightly curved, 5 meters long. Summer should be properly shaded, but not too shaded, otherwise the sphere becomes longer and will reduce the ornamental value. The suitable temperature for growth is 25 ℃ in daytime and 10-13 ℃ at night. Flowering from June to October, peanuts in woolly tufts at the top of the ball, campanulate, 4-6 cm, yellow, kaleidoscope acutely scaly. The diameter of the sphere can reach about 1 meter, and the top of the sphere is densely covered with golden fluff. Jin Shuxi has plenty of light and needs at least 6 hours of direct sunlight every day.

The reason why the golden cymbal does not blossom

Jinji is a large cactus with a diameter of up to one meter, so it is difficult for ordinary potted plants to blossom.

1. The golden oyster usually blossoms at the age of 20 to 30 years. If it does not blossom, it may be too young. In addition, most of the individual-raised golden oysters are planted in the basin, which will be out of shape 20 or 30 years later.

2. After 20 years, the ball diameter of a well-raised golden fish can reach 70 to 80 square meters. He is really not suitable for potted plants. Potted plants, nutrition can not keep up, the ball also has no room for growth and development, such a big ball can not be changed frequently.

3. The sun shines for not less than six hours a day. Put potted gold amber in indoor care, if it can blossom well.

Conclusion: if it takes 30 years for the golden mackerel to mature and blossom, the adopted little golden oyster will not blossom, and when the golden amber blossoms, people will all grow old. Therefore, it is difficult to blossom the pots, so they can only watch the ball but not the flowers. If they are kept indoors, the cactus will become a fairy cone, and even the beauty of watching the ball will be lost.

The difference between the cactus and the golden cactus

Jinji: Jinzhu, it has a green and round sphere, golden thorns are covered with the whole sphere, and the top of the sphere is densely covered with golden fluff. The biggest difference between the golden cactus and the ordinary cactus is the thorn of the golden cactus. The thorn seat of the golden cactus is very large, and it grows thick, long and hard thorns of golden color. The golden cactus is the representative of the tough thorn ball of the cactus family.

There are yellow thorns, white thorns, short thorns, wild thorns, big dragon crowns and other varieties on the market. When we buy them, we can choose the ones we like according to their thorns.

The thorns of the yellow thorns are golden, hard and long, and the white thorns are white hard thorns. The thorns of the wild thorns grow irregularly and become denser and denser as they reach the top of the sphere. The hard thorns of the dragon crown are thick and long, and bend slightly at the top of the hard thorns.

Common cactus: the cactus is a perennial green succulent plant with round and oval stems. The cactus has longitudinal edges with dense thorns on the edges. The bristles of different cactus are different, and the bristles can be divided into length, soft and hard, and thick and thin. Jinji is the representative variety of strong thorns.

Conclusion: if you buy a cactus whose sphere is round, with a circle of fluff at the top, and its thorns are very tough, then congratulations, that is Jinzhu. I believe that understanding the difference between the ordinary cactus and the golden cactus will make it more convenient for you to choose the golden cactus.
