Stewed bone pieces, cake crumbs, bone meal, etc. As a base fertilizer, it is applied to the basin bottom. You can plant a single plant, or you can plant a number of purple bamboos with different heights together in a pot, and the height and density should be changed.

5. Environment. Zizhu likes a warm, humid and sunny environment, and should be maintained in a sunny place during the growing season. In summer and early autumn, shade 80% ~ 90% from 9: 00 a.m. to 5 ~ 6: 00 p.m. on sunny days to prevent strong sunlight, or move it to the southeast balcony or windowsill, or move it to a green shed or a shady place for maintenance. Overwintering in the leeward and sunny places in winter, it is best to bury the pot underground for overwintering; Northern areas should be moved indoors or in greenhouses for the winter.

Water it. When growing, always water and spray foliar water, keep the soil moist and not waterlogged, avoid water accumulation in the basin, water thoroughly, and avoid watering half. In winter and after bamboo shoots are exposed, water should be reduced appropriately to keep the basin soil dry and wet.

7. Fertilize. In the growing season, liquid fertilizer should be applied 2 ~ 3 times a month with water. 0. 1% ~ 0.3% potassium dihydrogen phosphate aqueous solution can be added to the decomposed cake fertilizer water for irrigation. The temperature is too high in summer and no fertilizer is applied in winter.

9. Trim. After bamboo shoots are unearthed, according to the modeling needs, bamboo shoots can be bent in combination with water control, sharpened and topped at an appropriate height, and branches and leaves can be trimmed in time to increase the ornamental effect.

10. Pest control.

At ordinary times, we should strengthen the cultivation management, pay attention to the ventilation and light transmission of the environment, and pay attention to the prevention of witches' broom, bamboo shoot blight, stem rot, bamboo moth, bamboo moth, bamboo locust and other pests and diseases.

Garden zizhu planting method

After bamboo survives, apply fertilizer appropriately to achieve' thin fertilizer and diligent application'. Temperature and illumination: Zizhu is most suitable for 18℃ to 25℃, and it is not suitable for exposure in summer. It's best to put it in a sunny place, otherwise it will lose its luster. When the temperature drops below 5℃, it should be kept indoors for the winter.

3. Then, update communication. If it is found that the height of Phyllostachys pubescens is not balanced with the size of the pot after planting for a long time, it can be cut short from the pot soil 10cm ~ 15cm in May and June, and new branches will grow on the lower part after subtraction. The cut stems are not useless, and they can continue to reproduce. Plant the cut purple bamboo directly into the soil as long as it takes root.

4. Then, don't put it in an excessively dry place. The first time the basin water must be poured through the bottom, and then the basin bottom must be kept moist, but not too much, otherwise the roots of Zizhu will rot, greatly reducing its ornamental value.

Then, from the time he was put into the pot until he survived, he should always spray water like the surface of a leaf. If he finds the leaves curly, he should water them in time. The organic fertilizer of potted Phyllostachys edulis should be applied "thinly and diligently" after survival.

Finally, potted Phyllostachys edulis should also pay attention to pests and spray 80% dichlorvos emulsion. If you pay more attention to ventilation and light transmission, you can effectively prevent the harm of pests and diseases.
