Pruning technique of Populus tomentosa bonsai

Poplar bonsai, mostly made from wild piles by the water, has become art treasures because of its small evergreen leaves and slow growth. Purple sand pottery is commonly used, and the basin color is mostly purple or light yellow. The basin shape is determined according to the modeling form, the cliff type should use a deep thousand-cylinder basin, and the oblique type or curved dry type should use an oval or rectangular basin.

The trunk of Populus tomentosa bonsai grows very slowly and very vigorous, but the tender branches grow faster, and the density of the leaves is bound to lengthen, so it appears soft and scattered. Only by "picking the heart" can the ornamental value be guaranteed.

That is, before the branches are lignified, leave one pair, no more than two pairs of tender leaves, and take off or cut off the rest. Under the appropriate conditions of water and fertilizer, it will send out two buds in ten and a half days.

In this way over and over again, its branches appear short and thick, the leaf can double the product of 2, constantly improve the ornamental value, and then remove the bud in time.

Populus tomentosa begins to have buds before summer and autumn, blossoms in spring, and the nutrition of flowers and fruits accounts for 70%, 80% of the whole tree, which will inevitably affect its normal growth and beauty.

Boxwood bonsai is mainly to watch the leaves, it is necessary to start from the flower bud, it is necessary to remove it, the shape is mainly cut.

The wood of Populus tomentosa is hard and brittle, the branch skin is thin and easy to hurt, and the plasticity is not big, so we should first pay attention to the selection of stakes, and then because of the tree conditions, the shape must be pruned mainly.

Can also be properly tied with rope to pull, the branch displacement should be in place several times, that is, can not be demanding, can not be eager for success, otherwise it will be counterproductive.

Avoid twisting branches with rusty iron wire to prevent skin injury and dead branches.

Populus tomentosa is a fleshy fine root, and its water and nutrient absorption is mainly the absorption function of the root tip, which is secondary to the length of the root arm. The root is too long to stretch in the basin. Bending and kneading is very harmful. Moreover, in order to absorb nutrients, the root tip will naturally extend forward and come into contact with new soil. If the root grows, it won't take a long time, and the root tip will hit the wall. Although the root tip will turn, it will take a lot of time and time to affect the growth.
