Yang Pai boxwood bonsai, branches and leaves after cutting processing, into a "cloud sheet", as thin as cut, and then embellished with rocks, elegant and picturesque. The young leaves of Populus tomentosa are young in spring, and the trees are green and pleasing to the eye. The ancients chanted Huang Yang's poems, the poplar tree, the woman to branch thousands of heavy, Ye Shenpu jade, according to the ancient Qiu long. It depicts the grace of boxwood, which is an excellent material for family to cultivate bonsai.

1. Draw materials

Seedlings propagated by sowing or cutting can be transplanted to pot for several years. You can also select the old pile from the mountain, dig it up, trim the long roots and dense branches, raise the billet in the open field for 1-2 years, and then go to the basin for processing.

2. Upper basin

① selection basin: boxwood perennial oil green, it is appropriate to use purple sand pottery basin, basin color to purple or light yellow is better. The shape of the basin depends on the form of the shape. The cliff type should use a deep thousand-cylinder basin, while the oblique type or curved dry type should use an oval or rectangular basin.

② soil: the bonsai soil is cultivated with mature pastoral soil or rotten leaf soil mixed with appropriate ridge bran ash, which is suitable for fertile and loose, and the loam with good ventilation and permeability is the best. It is advisable to carry lodging soil on the old pile.

③ planting: yellow poplar is more hardy and can be carried out before sprouting in spring. When planting, the root system should be trimmed too long and too dense, and do not make the root fossa bend in the basin. Newly planted boxwood should be placed in a semi-shady place.

3. Modeling

Populus tomentosa has strong germination. Before modeling, the trunk can be cut off to sprout new technology around or below the cross section, and then climb the branches according to the requirements of artistic modeling, and it is better to use brown silk in spring. It can also be roughly tied and cut to make a cloud sheet or steamed bread, or processed into a natural tree shape.

Many people no longer like the original square bonsai, but turn their attention to those grotesque plants. This tells the grower not to forget to choose some special plants when buying seedlings.

2. Plant stereotyping

Girls need to have their hair styled to get their hair done, and the same is true when making bonsai.
