Modeling method of Fujian Tea Bonsai

To make Fujian tea bonsai, one-year-old branches or semi-lignified branches with strong growth can be selected for cutting propagation in spring or plum rain season, and seedlings can also be obtained by root propagation from early summer to early autumn. in the south, wild stumps or young trees can also be dug in the woods and processed to pot after raising blanks to survive.

Fujian tea is very strong in growth and resistant to pruning, so it is suitable to use the method of "storing branches and cutting dry" adopted by Lingnan bonsai, so that the branches can achieve the effect of natural twists and turns and vigorous power by pruning many times. Common tree shapes are straight dry type, double dry type, oblique dry type, multi-dry type, jungle type, cliff type, stone-attached type and so on.

Fujian tea is an evergreen shrub with dense branches, including big leaves, middle leaves and leaflets. Among them, Fujian tea with lobular leaves has slow growth, small leaves, dark green, bright and lovely, well-developed roots, intertwined roots, quaint posture and lovable.

Fujian tea has strong sprouting ability and resistance to pruning, so it is often made into natural tree-shaped bonsai by the method of "storing branches and cutting dry". That is, the young trees used for bonsai grow to a certain thickness, carry out intensity cutting (cutting off most of the trunk), and retain 1 ~ 2 or 3 ~ 5 branches as first-class lateral branches at appropriate parts and angles. when the upper second-grade branches grow to a certain thickness, retain one or two branches and cut short to promote the growth of the third-grade branches; in turn, year after year, cut off and accumulate branches.

When the branches and leaves are too dense, in addition to cutting off the overgrown branches at any time, they will be pruned once a year in early summer and Mid-Autumn Festival. Pruning should also be carried out according to the method of "storing branches and cutting dry". After a few years of pruning, it will be cultivated into bonsai with vigorous and clumsy trunk, whirling branches and leaves, and beautiful tree shape.

Because of its developed root system, it can be made into stone-attached bonsai. After Panza and other artistic processing, it can also be made into a variety of styles, such as direct dry type, oblique dry type, double dry type, jungle type and cliff type.

In the process of management, pay attention to keep the soil moist, Fujian tea is afraid of drought, a little water loss, often cause leaves yellowing or fallen leaves, affecting plant growth.
