There are many varieties of boxwood. In China, boxwood, boxwood melon seeds and boxwood pearls are naturally distributed. Some friends will ask, which of these varieties is the most precious? Which bonsai is the most beautiful? How to maintain them?
Let's briefly talk about boxwood bonsai and communicate with friends, hoping to help everyone!
1. What boxwood is the most precious? Which boxwood is the most beautiful in bonsai?
Although there are many kinds of boxwood, when it comes to preciousness, it is natural to count the pearl boxwood. This kind of boxwood, also known as Millennium Dwarf Wood, has a beautiful posture, and most of it can be naturally formed without binding. The branches are vigorous and powerful, and the bark cracks naturally like scales, which is particularly old. With tiny green leaves like pearls, it should be the most beautiful boxwood. Because this boxwood is so beautiful and naturally radiant, it can be said to be the most beautiful one.
This bonsai material is not only beautiful, but also very precious. Buxus macrophylla is only distributed in some high-altitude areas, and some people over-dig, making Buxus macrophylla very rare, so it is very precious. Now it has become a national protected plant. This species of Euonymus japonicus is not only rare, but also difficult to domesticate artificially. It can be said that even if we are lucky enough to get wild Euonymus japonicus, it is not easy to feed it. This boxwood has adapted to the cool and slightly humid environment in mountainous areas. Going down the mountain will lead to all kinds of discomfort, and there is even a saying that "going down the mountain will kill you." For various reasons, we can say that the pearl boxwood is the most beautiful and precious. It should be a blessing to have a pot of pearl boxwood
Second, how can I get Euonymus japonicus? How can I feed it?
1. How to obtain Euonymus japonicus and what to do after obtaining it?
It is impossible to obtain Buxus macrophylla by manual excavation. As mentioned above, nature is very rare, and it is not allowed by law to destroy the environment through excavation. We can only buy some Euonymus japonicus cultivated in the base.
If you have a soft spot for Euonymus japonicus, I suggest you pay attention to buying Euonymus japonicus. Buxus macrophylla, which was first purchased, had better be domesticated at low altitude in order to adapt to the environment and survive quickly. Secondly, it should be noted that if the purchased boxwood has bare roots and few fibrous roots, try not to choose it, because such boxwood roots have almost no ability to absorb nutrients and water; Finally, we should pay attention to the choice of Euonymus japonicus with leaves. If it is too hard to kill the leafless pile, don't choose it, because it is difficult for Euonymus japonicus to carry out photosynthesis and it is almost impossible to feed.
After buying these Euonymus japonicus, it is necessary to soak a small amount of original soil in clear water for a period of time in time and soak all the original soil. These native soils are different from cultivated plants, and it is difficult to blend, which is very unfavorable for the survival of Euonymus japonicus. In addition, the root system should be treated, and it is best to prune the rotten root system and the disordered root system, which will be beneficial to the rooting of Euonymus japonicus. Of course, some diseased branches should also be trimmed slightly, which can reduce useless nutrient consumption. After pruning roots and branches, you should pay attention to applying healing agent to avoid infection.
2. How to cultivate Euonymus japonicus? How can we ensure survival?
There are skills in cultivating Buxus macrophylla. First, we should plant materials correctly. If Buxus macrophylla wants to take root quickly, it is best to use coarse river sand. This kind of river sand is not only loose and breathable, but also has better drainage performance, which is not easy to rot piles and can promote new roots. It is an important raw material for raising Euonymus japonicus. The river sand of Euonymus japonicus should be covered more, which can be beneficial to the moisture preservation and heat preservation of branches.
In order to cultivate Buxus macrophylla and survive quickly, Buxus macrophylla should be placed in a cool and ventilated place as far as possible to prevent sunlight exposure, which can reduce evaporation and reduce the burden on roots. In addition, it is necessary to pay attention to proper water spraying and increase air humidity, which can create a living environment that Euonymus japonicus likes to eat and promote the early germination and survival of Euonymus japonicus.
The biggest obstacle to the survival of Euonymus japonicus is watering. Too much watering is easy to soak roots and rot roots, too little watering can't meet the demand, and it is easy to cause plants to dry up. When watering Euonymus japonicus, it is advisable to keep the plant slightly dry. When the plants are three or four centimeters dry, they can be watered. Pay attention to watering thoroughly and avoid watering halfway.
Third, what should be paid attention to in the modeling of pearl boxwood?
After Buxus macrophylla is cultivated and survived, the most important thing is to shape it and give it a shape. If the branches are straight, I suggest that you don't tie them directly, so the branches are very easy to break, but we can cut off the straight main branches and keep the side branches with strange shapes for cultivation, so that the shapes obtained will be full of charm and changes.
Of course, Buxus macrophylla can also adopt the method of cutting branches and saving branches, that is, cutting off the trunk of Buxus macrophylla. Buxus macrophylla has strong germination ability. After cutting, new branches will sprout below the cross section, and the sprouted new branches can be coiled when they are semi-lignified. In order to avoid damaging the branches, we'd better use brown silk to create the shapes we like. After coiling, we can finely trim and process the leaves.
When changing pots, we can properly lift the roots to create elegant roots. As the saying goes, "bonsai has no roots like wood"!
If beautiful bonsai can be matched with strange stones, you can spread some moss on the stones, which can keep boxwood warm in winter. When the moss grows, it can secrete some slightly acidic substances, which boxwood likes. The most important thing is that after spreading moss, it enhances the charm of nature and is more poetic and aesthetic.
Third, summary.
After the success of Buxus macrophylla production, it must be maintained reasonably in order to show its beautiful charm. The key point of maintaining Euonymus japonicus is to bathe in soft light, avoid sun exposure and keep ventilation as much as possible to maintain its favorite cool environment. During the peak season, we should pay attention to watering more water to keep the plants moist. Usually, some organic fertilizers and compound fertilizers can be used to make plants more robust. If you want to make the leaves of Euonymus japonicus bonsai lush and vibrant, you can also spray some chlormequat!
The beauty of bonsai lies not only in its flat shape, but also in its reasonable maintenance. Do you think so? If you like Euonymus japonicus, I suggest you collect it!
