How to raise the upside-down Golden Bell Culture methods and matters needing attention

The name of the inverted golden bell flower is mainly due to its appearance characteristics, it is not like lilies, roses, tulips and other flowers in full bloom, the flower bone blossoms upward, it is a special kind, it is falling and opening down. It's like a big clock hanging from a tripod. Because of the characteristics of such unusual flowers in full bloom, we are particularly familiar with the upside-down golden bell and can be distinguished at a glance among the flowers. Next, the editor will introduce to you some knowledge of hanging Admiralty upside down.

First, hang the golden bell upside down

Hang the golden bell upside down, also known as hanging bell flowers, when blooming, hanging flowers, graceful, like hanging colored lanterns, very lovely.

1. Form:

Admiralty hanging upside down for perennial shrubs, leaves lanceolate ovate, leaf margin dentate, tip class, opposite. Flowers and plants, flower Cao tube bell-shaped, petals vary greatly, flower stalk long, berries, many varieties.

2. Characteristics:

Admiralty originated in Mexico, like cool and humid sex, afraid of hot and high temperature, the growth temperature is 15-25 ℃, more than 30 ℃ affect the growth of branches and leaves, high-temperature branches and leaves above 35 ℃ will wither and die. When the temperature is lower than 10 ℃ in autumn and winter, you should move indoors immediately. If the temperature drops to 5 ℃, it should be adjusted to more than 5 ℃ immediately, otherwise it will suffer frost injury.

Second, the culture method of hanging Admiralty upside down.

Soil selection for upside-down Admiralty culture

The basin soil was mixed with sandy garden soil, humus soil and farm manure. Before entering the growing season every spring, it is necessary to change the pot and soil, remove part of the pot soil, cut off part of the old root, change to a larger flowerpot according to the plant size, and then supplement the prepared pot soil. The soil should be loose, fertile and well drained. If there is stagnant water, the plant is easy to die from rotten roots. The soil should be loosened properly in spring and autumn.

II. Fertilization methods for upside-down Admiralty Culture

When potted, 4 parts of rotten leaf soil, 3 parts of garden soil, 2 parts of river sand and 1 part of rotten cake fertilizer powder should be mixed into culture soil, and there is no need to apply base fertilizer so as not to cause rotten root. The upside-down golden bell grows faster and can blossom one after another, so 10%-15% cake fertilizer or dilute liquid fertilizer combined with nitrogen and phosphorus should be applied every 7-10 days, with a concentration of 0. 1% zero. 2% urea water plus 0. 3% zero. 5% superphosphate soaking solution, or 0. 1% zero. 2% urea water plus 0. 1% zero. 2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate fertilizer water. If the nutrition is insufficient, it is difficult to blossom again after blooming once.

Third, the light and temperature requirements of upside down Admiralty culture

The plants should be placed in a cool and ventilated place in summer, and the suitable temperature is 15-25 ℃. The room temperature should be kept above lO ℃ in winter, and freezing injury may occur when the temperature is below 5 ℃. When it is less than 10 ℃ in autumn, it should be maintained indoors.

The light should not be too strong, especially in summer, to avoid long-term direct sunlight, so as not to cause the leaves to curl and die.

IV. Watering method of upside-down Admiralty Culture

Pay attention to watering and keep the basin soil moist during the growing period. Watering the golden bell upside down should generally grasp the principle of "dry and wet". If the pot soil is too or too wet during flowering, it is easy to cause falling buds, flowers or leaves. Long-term wet basin soil can easily lead to rotten roots, yellow leaves, and even cause plant death. When the room temperature is less than 10 ℃ in winter, watering should be strictly controlled and fertilization should be stopped to prevent rotting roots. After each fertilization and watering, the soil should be loosened and aerated in time.

Fifth, the safe way to pass the summer by hanging the golden bell upside down

Safe summer is the key to the upside-down golden bell. In summer, the inverted golden bell should be moved indoors or shaded and ventilated. Hanging gold clock upside down likes cool climate, and is most afraid of high temperature, sun and rain in summer. When the temperature exceeds 30 ℃, the metabolic activity is slow and the growth is stagnant, which is easy to occur such as fallen leaves and rotten roots. If effective measures are not taken in time, the whole plant will die. The maintenance and management measures for the safety of hanging Admiralty in summer are as follows:

(1) shading after avoiding light and ventilation in summer to avoid direct sunlight; strengthen ventilation and keep it in a cool and ventilated place.

(2) cooling and humidifying, family potted plants, you can move the flowerpot to a cool place with ventilation and shelter from the rain, or put it on the north balcony or under the eaves where scattered light can be seen slightly, or in a cool and ventilated place where the sun can be seen indoors. When the temperature exceeds 22 ℃, spray water on the leaves once or twice a day; spray water 3 times 4 times when the temperature exceeds 25 ℃, and spray water 2 times 3 times on the ground around the flowerpot to reduce the temperature and increase air humidity.

(3) when the temperature of fertilizer and water vapor is more than 25 ℃, fertilizer should be stopped to avoid rotting roots. Generally speaking, fertilization should be stopped and watering should be controlled in the high temperature season from June to August, and the basin soil should be slightly dry. If the basin soil is often too wet or stuffy and not ventilated. It will cause the leaves of the plant to be yellow, withered and scorched, and even the rotten roots to die.

(4) prevent rain, it is easy to cause rotten roots and fallen leaves after rain.

(5) to cultivate new seedlings, the perennial plants hanging Admiralty upside down are sensitive to high temperature, but the seedlings have strong heat resistance and do not lose leaves in summer, so planting new seedlings every year is beneficial for them to spend the summer safely. This is a more positive measure.

6. the heart-picking method of upside-down Admiralty culture.

Picking the heart at the right time is an important measure to make the golden bell grow luxuriantly. In spring and autumn, it is necessary to top and pick the heart of the plant, promote its branching, make the plant shape plump, and increase the number of flowers. Because the upside-down Admiralty has the habit of bearing buds in the axils of the new shoots, picking the heart can stimulate the germination of new buds, more branches, more flowering, and plump plants.

Coring should start from the seedling stage, generally, when the seedlings grow to about 10 cm, the first coring is carried out to promote branching, and about 30 days after the first coring, when the new branches grow 6-8 leaves, the second coring is carried out, and 5 or so lateral branches are retained in each plant to remove the excess lateral buds. When it is cool in autumn, the overly long branches can be cut short and the overdense branches can be thinned out to promote the development of robust new branches. Watering should be controlled after each pruning, and normal watering should be carried out after the new branches in the leaf axils grow. In the suitable growing season, the new shoots can blossom again 15-20 days after picking the heart, so picking the heart many times can also prolong the flowering period. It is usually re-cut after blooming in early summer, and then properly trimmed when cool autumn enters the room to remove redundant new buds.

Third, matters needing attention in upside-down Admiralty culture

The phenomenon of falling flowers and buds often occurs when hanging Admiralty upside down, which is mainly caused by improper cultivation and management. attention should be paid to:

First, hang the golden bell upside down and like the cool and humid climate. The suitable temperature for growth is 10-28 ℃. It is semi-dormant in the case of hot and dry. Summer should be shaded, sprinkled and so on to cool down and increase air humidity, otherwise it will cause fallen leaves, buds and flowers.

Second, light. The golden bell hanging upside down in spring and autumn should be cultured in a place with plenty of sunshine, otherwise the development and flowering of flower buds will be affected by lack of light. It should be shaded in summer to avoid leaf burns affecting flowering.

Third, fertilizer and water management. As the upside-down Admiralty has the characteristics of fast growth and multiple flowering, more fertilization and watering should be applied in Spring and Autumn. Control fertilizer and water in summer, and shade and cool.

Fourth, pest control. It is vulnerable to shell insects, aphids, red spiders, whitefly and leaf spot in summer. In the process of maintenance, attention should be paid to ventilation, sufficient light and reasonable management of water and fertilizer to improve plant resistance. If insect pests occur, 20% dicofol EC 1000 times can be used to kill red spiders, 40% omethoate EC can be used to kill scale insects, aphids and whitefly, and 1000 times solution can be used to control leaf spot.

Fifth, to cool down and humidify, family potted plants can be moved to a cool place with ventilation and shelter from the rain, such as on the north balcony or under the eaves where scattered light can be seen slightly, or in a cool and ventilated place where the sun can be seen indoors. At the same time, when the temperature exceeds 25 ℃, spray water on the leaves twice a day, spray water on the ground around the flowerpot for 3 times when the temperature exceeds 30 ℃, in order to lower the temperature and increase the air humidity.

Sixth, to prevent rain, after the rain is easy to cause rotten roots, fallen leaves.

7. To cultivate new seedlings, the perennial plants that hang Admiralty upside down are sensitive to high temperature, while the seedlings are more resistant to heat and do not lose leaves in hot summer, so planting new seedlings every year is beneficial for them to spend the summer safely, which is a more positive measure.

Fourth, the focus of maintenance

First, put the plant in shade, ventilation, cool and shelter; spray water to the leaves many times a day, sprinkle water on the ground, lower the temperature and increase the humidity of the air.

The second is to control the water and stop the fertilizer for the perennial old plants to get through the dormant period smoothly. The plant should enter the room before Frosts Descent and leave the room after Qingming Festival, and the room temperature should be kept above 5 ℃. In case of cold spell and wind and snow weather, when freezing outside, it is best to move back indoors.

Fertilizer should be stopped so as not to rot the roots. Generally speaking, fertilization should be stopped and watering should be controlled in the high temperature season from June to August, and the basin soil should be slightly dry. If the basin soil is often too wet or stuffy and not ventilated. It will cause the leaves of the plant to be yellow, withered and scorched, and even the rotten roots to die.
