Cultivation and maintenance of Milan flower

Milan is a subtropical tree species, which is a leaflet variety of Milano. Next, let's take a look at the cultivation of Milan flowers.

Milan, an evergreen shrub or small tree of the family azadirachaceae, is a leaflet variety of Milano. Branches are numerous and dense; pinnately compound leaves alternate, leaflets 3-5, glossy; flowers as small as millet, golden yellow, polygamous plants, panicles axillary; new shoots bloom in summer and autumn; fragrance overflowing when flowering, smelling like orchids.

The culture method of Milan flower:

1. Sunshine

Milan flowers should be kept in sunny places all the year round. If the Milan flower is placed on a well-lit and well-ventilated garden or balcony, and the light is more than 8 hours to 12 hours a day, it will make the leaves of the plant green, the branches grow stout, the number of flowering is more, the flower color is bright yellow, and the aroma is also rich. If we let the Milan flower in the environment of lack of sunlight and shade, it will make the plant branches and leaves grow long and thin, reduce the number of flowering, and the aroma is light.

2. Watering

Milan flowers like to be moist, watering should be determined according to the dry and wet climate, not only to keep the basin soil moist but not to have too much water for a long time. Too dry is disadvantageous to Milan's growth, leaf wilting appears, and maintaining high air humidity is beneficial to Milan's growth. In the period of drought and vigorous growth, it is best to spray water on the leaf surface 1-2 times a day.

3. Temperature

The Milan flower likes to be warm. The higher the temperature, the more fragrant the flowers will come out. Generally speaking, when the temperature is above 30 ℃, the flowers will smell fragrant under sufficient sunlight. On the other hand, under the environment below 30 ℃, if they are in the shade of insufficient light, the flowers will not have the fragrance when the temperature is high. The suitable temperature for raising Milan flowers is between 20 ℃ and 35 ℃, and it can blossom as many as 5 times from June to October.

4. Pruning

Milan flowers should be pruned from the seedlings and retain a section of the trunk 15 to 20 meters high. Do not let the trunk branches emerge from the soil, but should be bifurcated and pruned above the 15-meter-high trunk to make the plant look plump. The lower branches of perennial plants often grow old and die. Therefore, the north should be cut every other year in high temperature season to promote the adventitious buds in the lower part of the main branch to germinate and grow new lateral branches, so as to keep the tree well-proportioned, strong, leafy and flowering.

Milan which has just been bought should also pay attention to the following steps when cultivating:

1. After Milan has just been watered once, it should be watered less in half a month to promote new roots.

2, potted Milan, generally need to turn the pot to change the soil once every two years, do not break the soil, remove part of the old soil in the rootless place, cut off the rotten roots. When adding new soil, appropriately add some phosphate fertilizer as base fertilizer, not too much. After putting on the basin, keep it in a cool place and move it to the sunny place after about a week. It is more appropriate to change the soil about a week after leaving the house in spring.

3. Milan is afraid of the cold, so it is more difficult to survive the winter. When the temperature is below 12 ℃, the dormancy period should be stopped and watering should be reduced.

4. in the coming spring, you can't leave the house until the temperature is stable, so as not to freeze the plants to death in spring.

5. Milan just bought may be easy to lose leaves and wither because its growing environment is different from that of indoor environment, such as temperature, light and so on.

Many people like Milan, especially its delicate and elegant taste, but they do not know whether it is poisonous, so they dare not move indoors to watch it. In fact, Milan flower is non-toxic, it is warm, sunny, good fat, growth humid temperature of 20 ℃-35 ℃. Usually due to sufficient sunshine, high temperature, more to send out a strong fragrance, if placed in the shade, it will not blossom or blossom less, fragrance light. Therefore, Milan can be watched indoors, but it should not be kept indoors for a long time.

Conservation methods of Milan flower

(1) to maintain the good performance of the basin soil.

Milan has a well-developed root system, with many and thin beard roots. Therefore, it is necessary to timely replace the new soil rich in nutrients and eradicate the excess rotten fibrous roots. The basin should be changed at least once every two years, and those with good growth should be changed once a year. The new soil should be mixed with plant ash or burned-out cinder, and an appropriate amount of base fertilizer should be added to make the basin soil both fat and free of water, that is, breathable and nutritious. The extra fibrous root must be eradicated to make it send more new roots and enhance the absorption function of the root.

(2) apply fertilizer frequently by tapping water

When Milan starts to sprout in spring, it starts to buckle water. This is the most important part of "controlling branches and promoting flowers", so it is the peak period of Milan's germination, if it is not controlled in watering, it is bound to cause branches and leaves to grow. Wait for its tender head to shrunk down slightly before watering.

Keeping the basin soil in a micro-dry state can control vegetative growth and force it to transform into reproductive growth. In this way, the growth of branches and leaves can be slowed down gradually, and the leaves are thick, green and bright, the distance between leaves is short, the flower buds differentiate continuously, and the flowers and branches go hand in hand, and when the flowers bloom, the bouquet is even higher than the branches and buds.

Apply organic fertilizer 1-2 times a week, and when the buds are scattered, pour available phosphate fertilizer (potassium dihydrogen phosphate) once. After flowering, a slightly thicker organic fertilizer was irrigated according to the plant size to supplement the consumed nutrients and lay a good foundation for the next batch of flowers. But also continue to buckle the right amount of water, to the tender head is not shrunken to the limit.

(3) adequate light should be provided.

Milan likes light, too much shade will cause branches to grow too long, blossom little or no blossom or no fragrance, so be sure to let Milan fully receive the light. This can not only enhance the light and function of its leaves to produce more nutrients, but also produce short and sturdy branches, short leaf spacing, small and thick, green and bright leaves, promote the continuous differentiation of flower buds, improve the quality and quantity of flowers, and produce flowers with rich fragrance, even in summer.

(4) plucking the heart and thinning branches in time

Milan has a strong germination rate and many tillering buds and adventitious buds, so it is necessary to timely cut off the branches and leaves from the inner branches and the branches that are too dense, weak and long that affect the plant shape, so as to reduce the unnecessary consumption of nutrients. When the tender leaves grow to the fifth layer, they should pick their hearts and force them to produce more lateral branches. Controlling the length of each branch can not only keep the plant shape perfect, but also make it blossom neatly and increase the number of flowering in each batch.
