How to maintain potted blue snowflakes

Bought a pot of Taiwan blue snowflakes, very beautiful, attracted a bunch of neighbors to also plant this flower. After so many years, the mother plant of my family is more and more luxuriant, and the cuttings are all over the country. The neighbors' blue snowflakes do not grow well, do not know how to raise blue snowflakes, the leaves are yellow, and the plants are very unhealthy. I helped a neighbor trim blue snowflakes yesterday. It seems necessary to write this planting experience.

Blue snowflake leaf color emerald green, design and color is light and elegant, hot summer gives a person with cool feeling, but potted plant embellishes the bedroom, balcony. The branches of mature plants are overhanging, which is more suitable for large container combination potted plants. Many people do not know how to raise blue snowflakes. This article introduces the breeding methods and matters needing attention of blue snowflakes.

[reproduction]

Blue snowflakes are propagated by cutting. In spring or summer, 8-10 cm branches are selected as cuttings, inserted in the culture soil, covered with plastic film and placed in the bright light. After the root grows, the plastic film can be removed and the culture begins.

[temperature]

Blue snowflakes like warmth and are not hardy. The suitable temperature for growth is 25 ℃, and the lowest temperature in winter should be above 7 ℃.

[light]

The plant likes light and can tolerate shade. It should be placed in a bright place and exposed to direct sunlight for several hours every day, but not in the hot sun. It should be exposed to a little more sunlight during overwintering.

[watering]

Blue snowflakes need a lot of watering during their vigorous growth and keep the environment around the plant moist. You can spray water on them or put flowerpots on wet pebbles. Reduce the number of watering children in winter, and the basin soil will not dry through.

[fertilization]

Liquid fertilizer is often applied during the growth period of blue snowflakes, and once a week in spring and summer.

[change basin]

Blue snowflakes should be planted with well-drained soil. Change the pot in spring, if it is not necessary to change the pot, take out the plant, do proper pruning, and then plant it back to the original pot with fresh culture soil.

Note:

Blue snowflakes are born in the foothills of shallow mountains and on the peaceful ground. In North China and other temperate regions, blue snowflakes like warmth and are not tolerant to cold. In North China and other temperate regions, flower cultivation exists objectively, with suitable growth temperature of 25 ℃, light preference and shade tolerance. It is not suitable to be exposed to the sun in the hot sun. Drying is disadvantageous to its growth and is not resistant to drought. It is suitable to grow on sandy loam soil rich in humus and smooth drainage.

Blue snowflakes can blossom only from the branches of the current year, so they should be pruned every spring, cutting off the thin branches and 213 main stems, and new branches from the old stems will soon blossom.

Blue snowflakes have thin shoots in spring, so you should pay attention to the following aspects:

1. The temperature is too high during dormancy in winter and spring. Blue snowflakes can not bear the cold, overwintering needs more than 7 degrees Celsius, should not be too high, otherwise it will make the plant sprout prematurely. The new branches extracted prematurely are very thin, which is not conducive to the growth and flowering of the plant in the future. Put it indoors when dormant, and whenever the temperature is high, you should open the doors and windows for ventilation to maintain the appropriate temperature.

2. The pot should be turned in spring, and the pot plants should be turned once every spring to cut off too many roots and old roots and replace them with culture soil mixed with organic fertilizer, so as to make the branches stout in spring and conducive to flowering.

3. Lack of fat. In addition to the need to apply base fertilizer when turning the basin, fertilizer should be applied every half a month during the growing period. Nitrogen fertilizer is the main fertilizer after germination, which is beneficial to the sturdiness of branches.
