Huayou brought back a hydrangea from his hometown, which was not very big at that time. He went home to raise it in a big water tank and put it at the door to grow into a domineering hydrangea tree.
After the hydrangea grows new leaves in spring, the crown width is particularly large, which is more than 4-5 times that of the big water tank. You can imagine how powerful the flowers are this year.
Because this year's flowering period has not yet arrived, let's enjoy what it looked like last year ~
A jar at the door is full of tree hydrangeas. Don't mention how imposing it is to go in and out, and people's mood will get better ~
But autumn and winter are not very beautiful, because hydrangea will fall leaves and sleep in winter, so it looks bare and thinks it is dead. In fact, hydrangea will be fine as long as it is watered less and the temperature is not lower than MINUS 15 degrees.

In spring, when the buds and leaves of hydrangea grow, you can add some nutrient solution to the water or spend a lot. If you like, you can also adjust the blue at the same time and sprinkle the blue regulator on the soil surface.
It's really fun to grow flowers in a big water tank. Cracks and gaps in the house can come in handy. If you buy it now, it will cost hundreds of dollars more!
If the flowers are cultivated in soil, it is best to make a hole at the bottom, the size of a fist. If the newly planted flowers are not big, you can put more bricks at the bottom, and don't directly soil them, which is easy to get wet.
Big tanks are good, but they are not easy to handle. When you put them in the pot, mix some sheep manure in the soil (improve the soil and nutrients). Remember to loosen the soil every year. If the tank is large, you can dig a hole along the edge of the tank, which is filled with fertilizer, some animal manure or fish intestine manure. , and then fill it with new soil.
In this way, you can keep the nutrition in the vat without changing the soil, and ensure that the flowers grow a lot every year.
Keep the rose in a jar, and it will explode in three years.
It is said that Chinese rose grows best in the ground, but what if there is no land? If there is enough space, lift it with a big bucket. The effect is definitely not worse than planting in the ground, and it can be moved ~
In Huayou's "Endless Waltz" home, the Chinese rose is kept in a big water tank. For example, this Ella fluffy ball was bought as a toothpick seedling three years ago, and now it is so crazy. ...
This vat is 80 cm in diameter, which can't be carried by one person. Because the ground at the door is full of concrete, it is impossible to grow a strong rose in the ground, so I planted it in the vat and put it at the door, so I can climb the wall.
Another kind of rose is called blue rain rain, which is also kept in a water tank. It's super blooming, and the faint purple is really beautiful. ...

Raising roses in water tanks has fewer pests and diseases. When planting soil, choose clean garden soil, or sprinkle some carbendazim and the like, sterilize it in a few days, and put some chicken manure and cattle and sheep manure in the base fertilizer. After potted, it is clean and hygienic, and the nutrition is enough for half a year.
However, no matter how big the water tank is, the space is limited. Do more pruning, control the roses not to grow too crazy, remember to apply fertilizer after each flower, and just bury some animal manure beside the tank.
If you want to learn this method, you can raise seedlings in large tanks, put them in pots and expose them directly to the sun without watering. Unless the weather is particularly dry, 1-2 years can be changed from toothpick seedlings to rough old piles.

Clivia is blooming and growing in groups is spectacular.
These old-fashioned pots are especially suitable for raising Clivia, with good air permeability. This pot of flowers belongs to Carlos' family, which started with the elder 198 1. Together with this pot, it is a family heirloom ~
But because I am old, I dare not toss at home. When it arrived at Huayou, he boldly carried out a thorough transformation and gave Clivia a plant.
The process of dividing plants is still very careful. The jar can't be broken, and the orchid should be intact. Wet the soil in advance, and then slowly pull it out ... with this fine effort, the orchid will find a qualified owner ~
In fact, raising Clivia is not about how expensive it is, but about a state of mind. After raising Clivia for so many years, the painstaking efforts and energy and the precipitation of years are unparalleled.
Water tanks raise lotus flowers, and purity comes naturally.
Even if there is a yard at home, there is no way to move the pond into the house. If you want to raise lotus flowers, you still have to have a vat.
Plant lotus flowers in a water tank and put them in front of the house or under the window. The wind blows the fragrance of lotus leaves, as if you were in a lotus pond, especially in summer. This is the dream of many people. ...
As for the planting method, it is surprisingly simple. First, find some mud or pond soil and put it at the bottom of the tank, about 20-30 cm deep. If the tank is too deep, you can pad some stones or bricks at the bottom.
Then put the lotus root horizontally and cover it with 5 cm deep soil. Finally, slowly fill the tank with water with a long-mouthed tea protector, water pipes and other tools to avoid being too dirty.
At first, the water will be very turbid. As long as there is no particularly dirty oil stain on the water surface, don't worry about it. The water surface is dirty, so put toilet paper and stick it off. Try not to raise fish in the early stage. It is best for newly grown leaves to float on the water or stand upright above the water.
Raising lotus flowers requires plenty of sunshine. If there is less water, you can continue to add it. If the water is not clean all the time, you can get some duckweed, which will purify the water quality, but you should control its growth rate and not cover it too much, which will affect the growth and breathing of lotus.
If you raise a lotus in a jar, you can grow very big if you raise a tree in a jar, provided that you can raise a medium-sized lotus and a vegetable lotus root (it may not bloom, but it can form a lotus root).
If it is a miniature bowl lotus, it looks more harmonious in a smaller pot.
A vat of copper coins will be full in half a month.
Copper money grass means copper money, representing wealth. It is very appropriate to put a large water tank at the door, which means that wealth is rolling in.
Moreover, copper grass is easy to raise. A copper grass can fill a jar and freeze in winter. As long as the root system under it is not frozen, it will not die. Send another can of small copper coins in spring ~
After winter, you can cut off the yellow leaves and let them bloom again.
Its vitality mainly comes from the root system of glistening below. As long as the root is not dead, cut it if you want, and don't pick the time.
However, some flower friends asked, is it pure water in the tank? In fact, pure water and some sand will do. After purified water is raised, there may be less nutrition. It is best to drop some nutrient solution or fish water regularly and put some soil or particles at the bottom of the tank.
There are copperhead snakes in the water tank, which can be dried casually. The drier, the greener. If there is no light, the leaves will become smaller and yellow.
If you feed it some fish water regularly, or sprinkle some 1 urea and drop some nutrient solution, it will grow crazier and its leaves will be as big as the palm of your hand.
If you don't have a big water tank at home, a small clay pot is also suitable. On the window sill with air circulation, the meaning of feng shui is also very good.
There are many broken meat in the jar, and the shape is creative.
Raising fleshy flowerpots is the worst way to waste. In fact, you can be creative. You don't have to buy a flowerpot to raise it. Look at these fleshy crocodiles …
If there is a crack in the tank, more meat can be planted directly, and excess water will flow out of the crack.
If it is fleshy and has long branches, such as jade pendant, new jade pendant, Buddha bead and purple moon, it is more suitable to plant it in a water tank, and the branches naturally droop.
Broken tanks can use fragments as partition effect, and can grow different kinds of meat. When the meat grows up, it will look good to fill in the blank.
In addition to large tanks, small tanks can also be planted like this.

If the mouth is narrow, dig a big hole, order a variety of meat and open a hole in the sky.
In addition to the above plants, planting them in a vat is more domineering. You can also try to plant bougainvillea in a vat, even if you hang a tree and flowers on the roof.
The lush camellia trees have been kept in vats for more than 20 years, and still bloom every year (the variety is eighteen bachelors with white background).
The vats are filled with lilies, and many geisha memoirs bulbs can be produced every year.
Small hibiscus is raised in a vat and will explode twice as big in a few months. ...
If the vat is idle, it is idle. You can plant some side dishes even if you don't plant flowers ~
