First, the propagation and cultivation:

Podocarpus breeding, planting method can be used with cuttings, seed broadcast with.

Cutting method can be carried out as long as Podocarpus growing season, but spring and autumn-based, five, June is good. Selected current year, slightly woody branches do cuttings. Cutting the author of a number of Podocarpus seedlings;

Methods of operation: the first ready seedbed seedbed total height 30 cm, divided into three layers: the bottom 10 cm cinder, Coarse 07 cm, 13 cm and after picking sifted through mountains of sterile soil or garden soil. Branches cut into about 10 cm long, after the removal of the following coniferous and top with vitamin P12 Injection to handle it. After two minutes, you can insert ready to shoot seedbed irrigated. The future should be kept moist, often to the blade spray; high temperature of the sun, it is necessary erection of shade; in the evening the shade open, so that the branches dew, run hot and dry in air, water must also be reduced to the seedbed Ambient temperature. Just take reasonable daily management of 60-70 days to heal taproot survived; then shoots can grow to about 07-10 cm high, the following year can manage the basin.

For the seedlings grow faster, the train left the bed, but you'll need to survive the planting of seedlings divided by diluted culture. Several years and then on bonsai styling, but also for modeling in the bed. In the basin of the same time, according to the shape of the tree artificially retain apical buds or useful collateral branches sprout up, get rid of all the rest of the buds, the benefits: a can reduce water consumption; b prompted. long thick trunk; c can highlight beautiful trunk. After the stump shape, as long as the tree to be pruned every year, as years of growth, the stumps can also increase year by year.

Second, modeling Attitude:

01, modeling types: there are the following: Cliff formula; large cliff formula; semi-cliff type; oblique trunk; song Dry: Close plant type and so on. In the modeling process, the seedlings must be done according to the natural beauty of the artistic process itself, was due to be made should the United States on Canada and the US, so that modeling just strong, structured.
02, modeling tool: Available bamboo sticks, wire, copper wire, plastic tape, rope, and so on.

03, modeling program: during operation, according to the thickness of the branches -

01) selection of wire, fairly thick branches modeling difficult point, available coarse wire against the branches, with plastic tape and shoot a wire tied, and then hand the tying branches bent by the people's will shape about half a year or one year, took off the wire, when the shoots will grow after a year of stereotypes;

02) difficult branches can be cut in the main point to be bent a small mouth with a knife, it will give the branches bend down, bend after good, the wound must be sterile soil or moss wrapped, wound healing.

03) mention the root modeling: whole stumps after years of growth, in Huanpen root lift. Operation method:
Will Huanpen stump, dug out from the basin; when changing into a new pot, lift the tree stumps, fill in some more organic soil cultivation, etc. when stumps resume normal growth, then the tree stumps and soil water basin surface punched such roots are exposed.

After several years of growth in pots exposed surface roots through photosynthesis, the sun and dew formed on all vigorous quaint gesture, the entire stump seemed vigorous and effective. After as long as the spring and autumn period of vigorous growth, a reasonable pick buds pruning branches to promote the growth of long thick dense foliage.

04) modeling techniques: pruning shape is relatively simple; tie, pressed, tied, hanging and other modeling techniques more difficult, the shape of the stem's artistic imagination, people skills and tree boughs situation demanding. In the modeling process shall be based on the seedlings of natural beauty for artistic process itself, which is necessary because of the tree's needs, the United States and Canada and the US, so that modeling just strong, structured.

A. Shear: Using Podocarpus resistance to cutting and leaf characteristics of small production of various shapes, such as -
Spherical, conical, spherical and other multi-layered, just based on pre-designed graphics to trim.

Pruning three spheres, first select a trunk clear, upright better saplings.

Designed to trim the total height of 2 meters three-sphere, then the lower height of about 50 cm, about 40 cm in the middle floors, the uppermost storey 30 cm, to be a cut between 45 centimeters and two two-story, three between 35 cm All branches of the trunk, and then trim the three spheres. Above, middle and lower three balls getting big is appropriate, in order to better coordinate the proportion of ornamental generally sprouting new shoots 20 to 30 cm is appropriate pruning, pruning to be repeated, the layers of spherical solid round compact.

B. tie: Zafar solid modeling can be used bamboo sticks and tough rope, bamboo sticks and branches will be fastened with a rope, tied to real; one end of a bamboo stick and then fixed to the trunk, so that by adjusting the bamboo sticks direction, so that the shape of the branches in accordance with the wishes of a particular direction towards growth, achieve the purpose of modeling. It should be noted, Zafar shape suitable for smaller old Podocarpus, Podocarpus and age because of the larger branches thick, making modeling difficult and ineffective.
C. pressure: pressure molding method is mainly through the trunk bending, oblique way to make the tree on the inclined surface takes on a completely different level and upright artistic beauty. Since Podocarpus branches like a human arm; and cluster generation hemispherical leaves the students in the top branches like a person's palm, matched the bent tree, like a greeter was bending flexion arm, welcome guests, very vivid. Note: After the tree bending, end support must with stakes inclined, preventing the tree should tilt over and lodging, and the contact surface between the stakes and tree, straw mat moderate thickness, avoid the tree injured.

05) molding technology:

Rohan loose leaf evergreen, small leaves and thick, short branches, trunk vigorous; long life, resistance to cutting, it is one of the bonsai good material. Since Podocarpus slow growth, it is also slow shaped pile King. Good Podocarpus bonsai valuable commodity, in order to more quickly produce Podocarpus pile King, we form the backbone of some of the better, but the lack of branches of small-stakes attempt to compensate sexual transformation, and strive to make them become perfect shape stand up. In recent years, after a lot of practice, summed up some experience, relevant technical essentials are described below:

A. light sticks make up the lack of foot method: Some Podocarpus pile King agility, disc sticks are good, but the lower part of the branch is missing disk, or a bad Podocarpus material plasticity trunk, the upper have enough branches, but the trunk unbranched lower part, to put the blank shape to bring some degree of difficulty. Such as re-cultivation of the lower branches, the upper and lower branches Juenan proportionate and long time. To solve this problem, we try to use the trees abutting approach works well.

Methods: robust plants, lush foliage, trunk thickness suitable trees, potted plants or transplanting the need to make up in a tree branches. In the western area in March and April (temperature of 15 degrees -22 degrees) in abutment. Connected, trees, trees are normal management, according to the branches of trees growing and healing, twice cut; to be followed by branches survived, according to the need for trimming or coil bundle shape.

With this method, young saplings can be grafted in every imperfect parts Podocarpus tree trunk, after such a remedy, make Podocarpus bonsai overall shape tends to perfect and improve the appreciation of the value of the bonsai.

B. roots make up method: Some Podocarpus, because stagnant water or suffer other abuse, severely damaged a direct impact on plant growth. Such as the rescue is not timely, likely to cause death. In case of such a situation, the rescue and recovery of the method: in March and April, choose length stout, root saplings, which was transplanted trees beside the trees in the lower part of the trunk of the tree in abutting base. Just in the course of implementation, the master butt forming layer, and fixed and sealed with a thin film, the growth rate of 95%.

After Grafting, the upper cut saplings. Thus, the root of this strain of saplings, it will become the root of the tree; such as large stumps, roots or serious damage, which can use several strains in different orientations grafting to increase the root system. Even the complete replacement of the original roots of the tree. With this method, you can also change the shape of the roots of Podocarpus bonsai, the exposed roots hanging roots exposed claws effect occurs.

C. identity segment tree modeling method: There are some Podocarpus tree has become, for various reasons, damaged branches, canopy atrophy lame rotten roots, growing extremely poor, leaving the useless, wasteful to discard. This case, it can take the shape of sub-law, turning waste into treasure. The method is: according to the form of tree trunk were sawn in several segments. The trees are sawed, with three pieces of wood fixed in the soil, first with the root method to compensate for the lower part of the tree grafted on the root segment, and then to make up for the lack of law branch, tree grafting an upper body suitable location shoots. After the grafted roots and branches have survived, then trim coil bundle approach to modeling. Two or three years later, a shape plump, robust growth of Podocarpus pile King, will appear in front of us. After transformation by Podocarpus, art appreciation and economic value, will be greatly improved.

Third, the conservation and management:

01, light: Podocarpus species belonging to neutral to slightly negative, can accept strong light, can grow in a relatively shady environment. Although Shunde high summer temperatures, strong sunlight, but because of the Podocarpus tree at high light conditions conducive to maintaining Shuzi leaf, so Shunde in the summer do not have to be Buddhist Pine trees shade. The Podocarpus seedlings due to the young organization, not long bright light, the proposal should be placed under the shade conservation.

02, Watering: Podocarpus not Pinaceae, is not resistant to drought. On the contrary, Podocarpus resistant damp, growing season to pay attention to regular watering, but not waterlogged. Shunde sunny days during the summer to pay attention to regular watering, generally in the morning and evening pouring water, while also often foliar spray of water, so that leaves bright green, grow well. Summer rain usually more, Podocarpus no water logging, should pay attention to prevent prolonged water.

03, fertilization: Podocarpus hi fertilizer, manure handling facilities should be thin, nitrogen-based fertilizer, can be added the right amount of black alum, alum fertilizer made steep. Growing in 1 to 2 months fertilize, fertilization can be simultaneously combined with water (water and fertilizer ratio of 9: 1). Into a piece of large-scale cultivation of semicircular furrow method can be used, each instant of applying fertilizer from 300 to 500 grams. Potted can spray each fertilizer containing 0.5% to 1.0% solution of fertilizer or thin bread and water.

04, Huanpen: Podocarpus bonsai or pot, can three - four years Huanpen, Huanpen time before spring budding carried out in autumn can also be, to put people pelvic basal soil, potting employment training system that is can, fertilizing should be carried out in the growing season, the maturity of the available fat or soybean meal and other human excrement.

Podocarpus bonsai Podocarpus bonsai how to make and how to make conservation and preservation

05, anti-pest: Podocarpus naturally good support, and easy to manage, but it is good to pay attention to anti-blight, new leaf aphids, scale insects of the three pests and diseases, in order to ensure the healthy growth of Podocarpus. The author sums up the experience of planting flowers field, describes the incidence and characteristics of pests and diseases prevention and control of the following three points.

01) blight: blight Podocarpus many growers biggest headache, the disease occurs mainly in young leaves of Podocarpus shoot, after infected, color red, irregular spots, from the tip to the leaf base spread, causing the blade tip half dead. Late lesions as a light brown. With the development of the disease, leaf disease on both sides of the late portion are produced black specks, serious impact on the growth of Podocarpus and ornamental. The disease mycelia overwinter in the litter, the second in the spring, leaves or invasive bacteria invade the branches from the wound. Generally, cultivation too close, poor ventilation, extensive management, sunburn and other conditions can cause a wound to promote the disease, from April to May and August to September is relatively easy disease.

Control methods: winter pruning dead branches and sick leaves and clear focus on the destruction of diseased leaves the surface to enhance conservation and management, enhance disease resistance in plants. In the early onset, with Dyson ammonium 1000 times, 75% chlorothalonil 500 times, 100 times the same amount of formula spraying fungicides such as Bordeaux mixture, 1 spray every 7 to 10 days, and even spray 2 or 3 times prevent disease.

02) new leaf aphid: new leaf aphids on Podocarpus is a common pest, the body reddish-brown or purple red, oval. Ca. 1.3 mm, a width of 0.6 mm, siphunculus truncated form, located on the brown cone. Tail piece papillary, was prominent ventral side. In order to become, if aphid young shoots and leaves clustered at the back of Podocarpus sap-sucking, young shoots make poor growth, smaller leaves, yellow leaves, weak grower. Podocarpus leaves with aphid eggs overwinter on the branches, in April the following year overwintering eggs hatch into nymphs, gathered in the hazard shoots, to 05 ~ June peak of breeding, endangering the most important, after July due to high temperatures, population density decreased, but picked up again after the cool autumn insect population, produce male and female aphid aphid October, after mating spawning, egg after this winter.

Control methods: the early spring when budding yet Podocarpus spray Bobo the United States from 1 to 3 degrees lime sulfur liquid, to kill overwintering eggs. And in late April overwintering eggs completed, if the aphid hazard early start, spraying 50% pirimicarb WP 600 ~ 800 times, or 25% in 1000 to kill 1500 times.

03) scale insects: the Podocarpus is also stubborn pest to adults and nymphs damage Podocarpus. Adult Testa 2.5 mm long, brown, hemispherical shell-central uplift, smooth surface; pale yellow or light pink nymph, nymph back portion is ridged, translucent. Scale insects gathered in the main part of Podocarpus young leaves, petioles, Spear rods, etc., suck sap from plants, so that the deterioration of the nutritional status of the host, chlorotic leaves, the plants grow well. Scale insects 3 generations a year, with adults and nymphs damage the host site of the winter. In the Guangdong region of scale insects hatch in late March, respectively, in late June.

Control methods: by manual scraping or erasure leaves and branches on the scale insects. In nymphs hatching period, the choice of 40% of the speed of culling EC 1500 times, or 2.5% Decis EC 4000 times spraying, to pay attention to the liquid is sprayed onto the back of the blade.

04) Podocarpus fewer pests and diseases, but the hot, dry summer season to pay attention to spider mite control. In a spider mites, mites and larva in clusters near veins and leaf margin at the Podocarpus leaves, twigs draw the sap, the victim presented many positive blade pale green, off-white after becomes small spots, loss of gloss inherent, serious when the whole leaf gray.

Control methods: the high incidence of red spider (05-09 months), treatment of spider spray some pesticides, such as pyridaben, hexythiazox, benzene, tin, etc., every 10 days, spray, concentration Reference Manual .

Fourth, the identification Buxus Podocarpus:
Podocarpus, Podocarpaceae Podocarpus Department. It is evergreen, vigorous and elegant, especially Buxus Podocarpus, more loved by others, it is the art of bonsai, occupies an unusual position.

Buxus Podocarpus Podocarpus is a variant, the main difference with the big leaves of Podocarpus Podocarpus or mid-:
Big leaf Podocarpus large trees; mid Podocarpus is Yaqiao wood; Buxus Podocarpus is a small shrub. Currently on the flowers market, it was common mid Podocarpus seedlings, Buxus Podocarpus posing for sale. Buxus Podocarpus difficult to distinguish the authenticity of the seedling stage, generally the "four watch":

A look Leaves: Buxus Podocarpus leaves small, round tip, shaped like sparrow tongue; large and middle lobes Podocarpus leaves generally pointed end; Buxus Podocarpus leaves thick than the first two, especially in the vein was outstanding.
Second look Stem: large and middle lobes Podocarpus green color; Buxus Podocarpus color depth, dark green.

Third, look at Section: Buxus Podocarpus Choushao once each spring and autumn, spring and shoot each one, section dense, Dayton festival obvious, adding two tip length up to a year and only half an inch; large and middle lobes long section Podocarpus, growing fast, Dayton section does Buxus Podocarpus obvious.

Four to see tip: Buxus Podocarpus blade spring shoots dense, like a chrysanthemum heart, this is a big and middle lobes Podocarpus do not have, but fall tree buds spread, can not afford chrysanthemum heart, and therefore more difficult to learn a

Today we introduce is Podocarpus bonsai production and conservation, and collected some Podocarpus bonsai Pictures, hope you like

Podocarpus is a small evergreen tree, hi light, a little shade, prefer warm, humid climate. Its small leaves, slow growth, long life and resistance to trim, suitable for the production of various forms of bonsai, the traditional rule is the main species of bonsai. Podocarpus ancient pile less, more nurturing childhood.
Podocarpus hard wood, toughness, upright branches. 

TECHNOLOGY dry 0.5~1 cm in diameter, grow full, robust Podocarpus, using metal wire climbing bar (with traditional brown silk), dry rough 2 cm or more, and more difficult to bend.

Selection of roots developed, the root disk surrounded by extended, there is curvature trunk, branches and more stocky tree stumps. Bonsai can be used to produce small 0.5~1 cm thick Mikie curved shape. Traditional rule-based selection trunk longer be climbing bar shape, bent into two main multi-bend half, Long bending, bending around protruding parts remain branches, tied into the cloud sheet.

When using wire climbing bar, a timely removal of the wire, so as not to trap line, color ring growth.

Podocarpus can trim all year round, usually in the main topping, topping promote germination of lateral buds, so many branches topping sheet fuller. When pruning cut leggy branches, messy technology, sick branches, pruning body does not want to stick T stubble. Podocarpus molding force to improve the ornamental value, the removal of old leaves in March, to stimulate axillary bud growth of new leaves. Petiole to stay when picking leaves, so as not to cause damage without axillary buds grow shoots.

Podocarpus species hi moist, watering the ground to hold basin moist. Spring two days watering once a summer morning or evening watering 1, 3 to 5 days at noon in winter watering 1 times. Watering should be drenched, combined with foliar wash the dust and keep the foliage bright, clean, so green leaf color.
Podocarpus forming small amount of fertilizer needed, perennial spring growing season applied 2 or 3 times thinner fertilizers, mainly nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium supplement. Repotting, when soil replacement Shizujifei basal to send

Leaven bone meal, cake-based, according
to basin and bone volume ratio of 20: 1 was applied. Usually it can also spray of 0.1% urea solution to the leaf surface, so that leaves light green.

Podocarpus Bonsai Repotting once every two years, usually in the spring, remove the pot quill when half of Old Earth, Zhao cut the roots too thin root, root length, root twist, scraping tick dry soil at the root portion, and gradually put roots. When stumps backbone thickening, increased tree, repotting Shihai want to change the corresponding large bowl.

Podocarpus are aphids, scale insects. Spider mite damage, severe leaf black, 40% of available omethoate 800 times Pensha.

Murraya bonsai how production and conservation?

Murraya more digging stumps from the wild. Select trunk thick, dry and beautiful, there are modeling the value of stumps, stumps or more years old by nature "Endurance" artificial felled. After digging stumps due to the use of Shushi modeling approach, based on the characteristics of the stump, cut through the dry, carefully raise billet, carefully designed tree juice, repeated process modeling, can produce a deep-rooted 'fresh and elegant, vigorous quaint Murraya bonsai tree stump.

Murraya bonsai how production and conservation

Murraya fast growth, Mikie particularly suitable for use wood cuttings dry storage method of modeling. Its branches soft curved shape is not easily broken. You can climb tie, trim shape complementary way to achieve rapid prototyping purposes. Forming Murraya bonsai multi-use pruning, topping way to keep the original tree.

Use thick dry paniculata stump, cut through the dry, cut away the excess trunk, trunk to change the proportion of branches, so thick trunk, branches gradually smaller. Mikie each segment size, length to conform to the shape of the overall requirements, does not meet the requirements of the branches must be cut shears. After the cut dry trunk sprouting branches grow the site, according to the general trunk bending, depending on the remaining branches curved outer portion, can make more aesthetic vigor.

Grow new branches be retained long after compliance with the size ratio, and then cut dry. Lateral branches grow from the trunk can be converted back to the trunk, which is repeated until the molding. Branches are arranged beneath the rough trunk than the top, shoots itself ratio is a ratio - a small section, a ratio of a length. The bending angle of each section may vary depending on the will of man, but natural, smooth, rhythmic.

Collateral branches by pruning, can be processed into antlers sticks, chicken sticks, sticks, etc. roundabout. Branches required can also be processed into a technical fall, floating sticks, weeping, but also before and after the branch and necessary complement branches.

Murraya bonsai how conservation?

Murraya subtropical species, distributed in the south, southwest, Xi Yang, and warm and humid climate, a little shade, chills. It is suitable for the soil deep, fertile, loose, well-drained soil cultivation. It germination ability, resistance to cutting, obvious axillary shoots, old branches have a lot of adventitious buds, you can use this feature to Jiulixiang branches were cut dry storage sticks, prompting a dry short, dense branches.

Paniculata transplant, Repotting, soil replacement time should be controlled in the March quarter after Chung conducted day and night temperatures not lower than 15 degrees Celsius were better operation. When the temperature is too low repotting transplant easily lead to death; when the temperature is too high transplant repotting, easily dehydrated affect the hair root, hair sticks, and even cause death. When transplanting is best to bring soil ball, at least to take root sticky soil.

To maintain fresh stumps, cut long root, cut unnecessary root dry. When you want to cut dry dry slightly longer stay. Encouraged farmers to shorten the time to make stump, stump avoid dehydration, affecting their survival. After axillary buds and adventitious buds, select the appropriate site, retain appropriate buds, gathered in again.

Pentu used leaf mold soil mix pond, decomposition of organic fertilizer or bone meal. Tong dry soil weathering or artificial crack into pellets after mix well to form a loose, fertile, well drained, neutral soil well aerated. Generally available on the outskirts of garden soil plus a small amount of sand, rice husk ash, and mix well to make the basin. Pentu not cover the root window is too high, only to the original soil covering the roots, because paniculata easy to grow multi-root and watch the original roots. Pot holes in the tile put up good, avoid stagnant water, the impact of new hair roots.

After the new pile on the basin, to rotate in a cool place for 1 week conservation, several times a day to spray mist trunk, trunk to keep moist. Axillary trigger. To protect rely basin moist, not water, to avoid rot. Stumps sprout, after the hair root, to gradually increase the light. After disproportion within a general fertilizer.

Forming paniculata, to keep within the spring, summer, autumn three seasons basin moist, dry or irrigated basin see, and often to water the trunk, leaves. Northern winter when the first frost, heat conservation to be moved indoors. Winter temperature should be maintained at 5 degrees Celsius, and less water to prevent frost damage. Chung and summer every year 3 to 4 times subjected to the decomposition of organic fertilizer, the annual combined Fanpen to add a little soil basal.

Paniculata germination and strong, often trimmed pumping long branches, in order to maintain the molding tree makeup prototype.

Murraya common pests are aphids, borers, spider mites, wax scale insects, aphids, spider mites ? wax scale insects available 40% dimethoate 800 times Pensha also be used 50% of dichlorvos 1000 times Pensha borer, spider mites, scale insects wax.

Cliff formula Podocarpus bonsai production and conservation

Podocarpus branches toughness, stem - long, collateral and more. Its branches are produced cliff bonsai good material.

Production, according to the characteristics of bonsai cliff formula selection, ideas, and determine the length of the top surface dry and ornamental pendant. Then the selected Podocarpus planted in the high basin. And production. Choose a double dry stump, trunk up to 60~100 cm, collateral dense, vigorous growing robust, in order to bend climbing bar. Wound with copper or aluminum lashing the trunk, the trunk bent downwards, winding valley of death was like, downwardly extending downs. According to the degree cliff (large cliff, cliff and a half) to determine the length of the length of the branches of overhanging tail tip slightly tilted, undulating protruding parts of bending at the transition of the collateral, from top to bottom as a sheet shape, there are scattered sequence unfolded, density coordinated to meet the natural growth of the state. Vice-dry can be shorter, for vertical dry, slightly bent or curved climb two beaten semi-curved protruding parts remain tied collateral clouds, and finally top knot. When the cut shape to complete the remaining branches, cut back long branches, to show rich layers of three-dimensional.

Shaped bonsai Podocarpus 2-3 years Repotting 1 times. As vigor grow, can change slightly larger basin one thousand high barrel or slightly larger pots when the quill. Balcony facing should be placed outside, indoor multi placed high on a few enjoy.

How to grow chrysanthemums chrysanthemum pictures Daquan

1. Form

Perennial flowers, stem height 60~150 cm, leaves pinnately lobed or deeply lobed, serrated edges, the back hair, the size, shape, texture due to different varieties and there are significant differences; flower capitulum inflorescence central general bisexual tubular flowers, female or neutral to the edge of the ray florets, or axillary. Flower size, shape, color and different because of different varieties, yellow, white, purple, green and other colors, yellow is expensive. In 10 to 12 months, in a month or two after the flower achene, flowering fruit ripening. Chrysanthemum varieties, there are about three thousand kinds, it is the largest species of flower Dan. According to the cultivation method daisy divided into the following categories:

Chrysanthemum: one a flower, big flowers, the best performance characteristics of a variety of species of chrysanthemum. Potted chrysanthemum need tighter control cultivation techniques. Require less fertilizer and, if the basin is too large, dry fertilizer excess, cause strains grown too Gao Yi, which will reduce the ornamental value.

Dali chrysanthemum: a flowering of hundreds to one thousand flowers, flowering consistency, forming a large circular disk. Training Dali chrysanthemum need to select the fast-growing, multi-branched, loose chrysanthemum varieties.

Ju tower: the dozens of different forms and colors of chrysanthemum bud, layering grafted on a 2 to 3-meter-high white wormwood or Artemisia annua, formed various forms at different levels, colorful flowers, like afar flower tower.
Multi chrysanthemum flowers: an open dozens of flowers, suitable for dwarf plants, flowers large flower bed configuration is a good variety.

Cliff Ju: also known as Pteris chrysanthemum. Whole plant much branched, small flower, flower number, plant drooping, 2.5 to 3 meters long, is placed at or configuration rocks Gao good material.

2. Habit and use

Country of origin, sexual hi cool, to be
Shaded and well-ventilated environment. Soil containing humus and well-drained sandy loam is appropriate, resistance to frost, avoid stagnant water.

Chrysanthemum flowers is one of our country, in our country more than three thousand years of cultural history. Autumn dew is heavy, one hundred Dan dying, unique chrysanthemum thriving by frost and more graceful, and his love. Poems of the ancients, the list goes on. "The Book of Rites on order • chapter> in the" March of the JI Qiu Ju Huanghua "records. Qu Yuan's "Songs of the South"

Yuanming "The Story of Qiu has good color, pour dew drop its British" "take Ju Dong, leisurely to see the mountain" and famous, are still widely read. Yuan Zhen "Chrysanthemum" poem "Autumn plexus around the house like Tao, flowers do not spend more" vividly illustrates the hardy chrysanthemums Aoshuang character.

Potted chrysanthemum can be used to configure the rocks, decorated hall, bonsai, flower beds, flower border, etc. for people to watch. White chrysanthemums and yellow daisy can be used as medicine, with scattered wind-heat, Qing eyesight liver function. In addition, sulfur dioxide chrysanthemum has strong absorption ability, can play a role in cleaning up the environment. In the north, winter indoor coal-fired heating, if they can put pots of chrysanthemums, the concentration of sulfur dioxide can be greatly reduced.

3. Cultivation

Parental choice. • to retain a variety of chrysanthemum varieties in flowering period should choose a mother plant itself has an excellent shape and strong hereditary.

Culture female: Note ventilation during cultivation, watering, weeding, fertilizing, etc., in order to promote germination of new shoots. If crossbreeding flowering, the soil should not have too many fields as a nutrient residues, otherwise seed rate drops significantly.

Culture soil: potted chrysanthemum potting soil requires loose, rich in humus. Usually ready a year ago, potting, ratio: 5 parts sandy soil, humus 4 parts, 1 part grass wood, plus a small amount of bone meal mix preparation.

Huanpen Colonization: should choose sunny or cloudy, rainy day should not, pay attention to the pelvic floor drainage. Initially transplanted seedlings in a shallow box or shallow pots, 5x6 cm spacing. North in April will be planted seedlings with soil in 3-inch pots, and then moved to the warm pool leaked exercise. Note that cold night. The end of May for the 5-inch pots and 6 months for 7-8 inch pots, on a sunny, flat place. When the rain will elevate the pelvic floor, watering should be timely, to control the watering of seedlings, plant growth with increasing water set, and even rain down to the basin, to prevent water basin. Fall To promote bud formation, topdressing full maturity of manure dry, spread evenly on the basin surface soil, timely irrigated reach fertilizer evenly.

In order to suppress plant growth, promote collateral germination enrich its projected number of flowers in pots for the first time after topping once, each subsequent Huanpen topping should be carried out 2 or 3 times. In early August shaping a given number of flowers, generally 5 ~ 7 flowers is appropriate, not more than 8. Where after axillary buds grow out of take off, leave whole plant, each the size of a same shoot apical bud, side by side pillar, tie tied its branches to prevent lodging. In order to promote seed can be carried out artificial pollination. A ray method is to cut the stems of the cylindrical portion, at about 10 o'clock in the sunny morning with a brush pollination. Chrysanthemum flower short day Dan, by controlling the light control can play flowering, early or delayed flowering.

4.Reproduction

Chrysanthemum breeding methods are: defend inserted, tiller, grafting, planting, etc., to cutting propagation based.

Defend insert: the Northeast region in a greenhouse in January; performed in Beijing in August. To select the robust mother plant germination of cuttings of young shoots, cuttings 2-3 inches long, remove the following two leaves, shaved horseshoe-shaped base, first in the sand pot with a bamboo stick pierced a hole in the cutting-thirds two into the hole after inserting irrigated, placed in the sun at the indoor temperature is kept at zero on more than 10 in particular. 20 days that is able to put roots leaves, which are the basin or transplanting.

Ramets: Northern generally carried out before and after the Spring Festival. Will then retain the old strains germinated sprouts (buds feet) with a rhizome with a knife under, were transplanted into the sand bed or basin. Propagation characteristics can be retained by the parent ramets.

Grafting: in culture Dali Ju Ju tower or new varieties, the general grafting. Grafted with rootstocks should be selected stems of prism, the section between relatively thin, blade large yellow or white wormwood Artemisia, in late fall on the basin, placed indoors. Spring adequate fertilization, to promote root development. "Grain in Ear" in the room before grafting. Choose robust and scion should have branches terminal bud, 4~10 cm long, cut off the lower leaves, leaving only the top 3 to 4 blades, blade-shaped base shaved. Stock split, the scion stick, after plants holster interface shade 10 days to survive.

Sowing: breeding new varieties often use this method. Due to strong chrysanthemum difficult, need to be taken to the artificial pollination seed. Spring sowing, when the plants grow 4 ~ 6 leaves, can be transplanted or on the basin culture.

5. Protect

Seedlings often have harmful cutworms, booby way is to use 90% trichlorfon 50 grams, with warm water to open, stir-fry 3 to 4 kg of wheat bran, along with a little sesame oil and water mix into bait trap; summer season, aphids , spider mites, whiteflies hazards are more common, are available dimethoate 1500 times spray. Chrysanthemum Leaf spot occurrence of black dots on black spot and blight lesions, the removal of diseased leaves can be burned or 65% zineb 500 times spray control.

Chrysanthemum, alias life passenger, Kim, Huang Hua, Chrysanthemum, Tao Ju, is a genus of Asterales Asteraceae perennial herb. Under which about 40 kinds, most of which originated in East Asia, its variation 

In Chinese classical literature and culture, chrysanthemum has an important position, with plum, orchid, bamboo collectively known as the four gentlemen.

Daisy is widely used as an ornamental use, in the traditional Chinese Lunar New Year, many people like placed in the home of chrysanthemum. Chung Yeung Festival has Shangju drink chrysanthemum wine and customs. Meng Hao Ran "over the enemy village": "Until the Double Ninth Day, come for your chrysanthemums."

Chrysanthemum cultivation and management

Chrysanthemum varieties

Daisy is composed of a lot of flowers inflorescence, there are two flowers, pistil can have a single insemination of ray florets, the other often has tubular flowers of the pistil. The proportion of the composition of these two flowers, shape, size and color to produce all kinds of flowers and colors can be divided into single lobe daisy, chrysanthemum tray, Pompon daisy, decorative daisy, chrysanthemum and other standards. Depending on the size of the pattern can be divided into large, medium and small gear train, according to the main color is yellow, white, pink, orange and crimson. The fruit is achene.  

Daisy is a short-day plant, to Chiu extend day length, or black cloth shading to shorten the length of day, up to annual production of chrysanthemum purposes. Classified by photoperiod response, short time of day as long as 6,7,8,10 or 11 weeks will be able to reach blooming varieties are of early varieties of plants, you need 12, 13 or 15 weeks of short-day varieties Late varieties, general business varieties of 9-11 weeks with the main varieties. Flower planting shall be the record of farming such as planting, cutting electricity to harvest time, in order to calculate the planting and harvesting period

Chrysanthemum breeding

In addition to breeding breeding Chrysanthemum propagated by seed, the more asexual reproduction. Commercial cultivation mostly bud cutting propagation. Cutting propagation method operation is extremely simple, you can get quite a lot of supply of cut flowers or potted seedlings growers planted in a short time, while maintaining good horticultural characteristics of the original species.

Rooting ability of cuttings to root Spear most prone, generally broken fingers can easily tops of 5-7 cm, with 4-6 leaves, stem diameter 0.3 cm or more optimal. When taken cuttings, to prevent possible infection of the pathogen, it is best to take a hand off, should not be taken with scissors. Cut flower growers in the nursery industry dedicated to the purchase more convenient.

Chrysanthemum cultivation

Colonization of stems per plant spacing should be 120-180 cm2 of space, if one was 3 per plant topping collateral, planting spacing, each plant should be 360-540 cm2 space. Usually chrysanthemum farming per 10 ares (about a subdivision) 10,000-12,000 species
Zhou light effect

Under natural climate, chrysanthemum often in the cooler autumn temperatures, day length becomes shorter flowering, such as planting in the winter, due to the length of day is too short, when the plants flower buds have formed very small. To increase stems must be manually Chiu to extend day length to inhibit differentiation, in fact more important than the short night to extend the length of day. The continuous dark period of not more than six hours, chrysanthemum flower bud differentiation is not, according to the intensity of electric night, provided with two candles on chrysanthemum leaves (approximately 20 lux), is sufficient to inhibit the flower buds.

Soils and Fertilizers

Soil planting chrysanthemums, in addition to need good drainage and ventilation, but also need the rich in organic matter, if necessary steam or chemical disinfection. However, Taiwan steam sterilization equipment is expensive, if the soil fumigant "will speed off," or "The Guardian" disinfection to prevent the soil pests and weeds. Rice crop rotation can reduce pests and soil nutrient imbalances caused by excessive fertilization of.

Plant disease

Chrysanthemum occurred in Taiwan wide range of diseases, there are ten common ownership, are white rust, stem rot, black spot, wilt, anthracnose, rust black, southern blight, gray mold, Sclerotinia and bacterial soft rot. Wilt, stem rot, southern blight, and bacterial soft rot Sclerotinia genus systemic disease, often resulting in morbidity when the death of the whole plant

Insect pest

Chrysanthemums are planted throughout the year, pests and pest mites provides ample nourishment and habitat. Thus, regardless of chrysanthemum is cultivated in the network room or outdoor cultivation can not escape or harm mites pest infestation. Important pests on chrysanthemum aphids, thrips, Spodoptera exigua, beet armyworm, Spodoptera tomatoes and Tetranychus mites and the like. Secondary pest cutworms, quasi looper, leaf miner, whiteflies, moths, mealybugs, mites and other fine, kind to say quite a bit. For domestic chrysanthemum (cut flowers or potted), they do not affect the quality of flowers, can allow a small amount of pest occurrence

Weed

Chrysanthemum cultivation mostly open cultivation and crop rotation with paddy fields, usually water, dry upland rotation field of the common weed, all occur in chrysanthemums Tanaka. Weed competition hazards and chrysanthemum cultivation, grass phase, density, and environmental factors during the competition was the relationship between weed competition moisture, nutrients, light, etc., can directly cause poor growth of chrysanthemum, the decline in the quality, not conducive field of management operations, such as

Weeds and Tin Tin district four surrounding what happened, it can be a non-competitive harm where the host or habitat of pests, while the indirect losses. Taiwan upland plains happened annual weeds occur in the hot season weed species bearded millet, goose grass, crabgrass, nutsedge, purslane and pigweed; in the cold autumn and winter weeds are mainly goose children intestine, Gnaphalium uncle, leaflets ash Di, leaflets Cardamine mountain mustard, Hemistepta, Sanae Polygonum. 

Chrysanthemum growing weeds in addition to direct competition moisture, nutrients, light, etc., nor conducive to daisy field management jobs or other pests easy to breed, so in chrysanthemum cultivation process, must provide suitable control.
