Firethorn also known as "torch fruit","life-saving food","save military food","Qinling Begonia", is an evergreen shrub of Rosaceae, a common subtropical tree species. Obovate leaves, bright green, compound corymbs, white; round pear, ripe fruit bright red, frost does not wither, red fruit hanging branches until the next spring fall, is a newly developed bonsai species in recent years.

The reason why it is called saving military rations is that when Cao Cao, the prime minister of Han Dynasty (later Emperor Wu of Wei), led the army to crusade against Zhang Jiao during the Three Kingdoms Period, the soldiers were once hungry and thirsty. After Cao Cao used the strategy of "looking at plum blossoms to quench thirst", the soldiers had no food to fill, and happened to meet a forest belt of fire thorns. After hungry soldiers picked food, they felt good. The whole army saved the whole army with its filling belly, so it was called "saving military rations".

Water for the fire:

At the beginning of the pot on the fire thorn stump, every morning at 8 o 'clock, 6 o' clock in the afternoon each watering once, each watering to spray all branches wet.

After the new buds grow 5 cm ~ 6 cm, they can be watered once a day, and the pot soil should not be too wet, so as not to affect the normal growth of new roots.

After the new bud grows 8cm~10cm, the new root has basically formed at this time. It can be seen that the soil on the basin surface is not dry, and the watering is sufficient until the bottom of the basin flows.
