The introduction of bumping incense

Touch incense is a plant of spurs in Labiatae, and the laudatory name comes from its unique fragrance after touching. Similar to mimosa at this point, it can respond to the outside world. The smell of touch incense is similar to that of apple, so it is also called "apple fragrance".

Culture methods and matters needing attention of touching incense

1. Light and temperature

When it comes to incense, it likes sunshine, but it is also more resistant to shade. Afraid of the cold, it needs to be cultivated in the greenhouse. I can't bear to get wet. Like warmth, can not bear the cold. A temperature of 5 ℃-10 ℃ is needed in winter. When you touch incense, you like the sunny environment, the fleshy leaves will be thick under strong light, and the leaves will become flat and thin if the light is not enough.

two。 Soil

The requirements of touching incense on the soil are loose and good drainage. Because hard soil locks up moisture, and touching incense is a moisture-intolerant plant, which is one of the elements that cause rotting roots.

3. Watering

Touch incense is not resistant to moisture, but if it is too wet, it is easy to rot and die. The soil should be dry and wet, and watering and fertilization should be reduced or stopped on cloudy days. After summer, watering must be reduced, and watering must be controlled in winter. It is generally necessary to watch the leaves wilt before watering, otherwise it is easy to grow in vain.

4. Pruning

Because incense is easy to branch and grow on a horizontal surface, the plant spacing should be wide when planting in order to stretch the branches and leaves. Moderate pruning can promote branching and grow healthily.

5. Fertilization: touch incense is not resistant to fertilizer, so the frequency of fertilization can not be too frequent, generally speaking, once a month. The fertilizer applied is mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, combined with a small amount of nitrogen fertilizer.

The reason for the fragrance of plants

The reason for the fragrance of the touch incense is similar to the "shy" principle of the mimosa. When its leaves are stimulated by touch, the water in the cells will act and the turgor pressure of the leaf pillow will change. Unlike mimosa, the leaves that touch incense do not contract under turgor, but the stomata inside expand, and a volatile, apple-scented substance spreads into the air through the stomata.
