Bougainvillea is also called leaf flower, the flower is compact, the blossom is extremely shocking, deeply loved by people, just started to raise flowers of the small white, spring to buy flowers is easy to see the blossoming tree of the bougainvillea, potted bougainvillea, the tree shape is elegant, the flowers are gorgeous, the price is not expensive, but also particularly good to feed. In the spring is the time of the bougainvillea pop- and pop-up, its petals are the same as the triangle, a variety of flower colors of the bougainvillea have their own advantages, resulting in many people like to collect the varieties of bougainvillea, but also graft them together, you can open a colorful colorful flower tree.
There are many varieties of bougainvillea, with different colors, and each flowering performance is particularly strong. Now more and more varieties of bougainvillea are loved by people, bougainvillea belongs to the southern plants, in the south can be casually cultivated to live, in the green belt often seen, blossoming bougainvillea, and even climb to more than ten meters of high-rise buildings into a large flower wall.
Bougainvillea can grow wantonly in the green belt, indicating that it has less spicy skin and pests, and it can easily grow flowers and trees in the south, but in the northern region, raising bougainvillea always likes to have various problems.
For example, bougainvillea always does not bloom in the spring or grows leafy and always has no flower buds. In fact, it is very simple to let the bougainvillea blossom, that is, it can not be pampered and squeamish maintenance, it must be abused, more pruning, controlled watering, more sun, to meet these points to bloom into a large flower ball. If your bougainvillea grows in pieces and the plant shape is scattered, be sure to follow these methods to save it.
First, pruning is important
In the southern region, bougainvillea can be planted on the ground to grow into a thick flower tree, the larger the plant, the older the flowering performance, the stronger the resistance to foreign forces. Climbing to more than ten meters to bloom into a large flowering tree is very shocking. However, in the northern region, potted bougainvillea is used, and there is no way to take it indoors to keep warm because it is too cold in winter, otherwise it will freeze to death in minutes.
However, in the indoor cultivation of bougainvillea a lot of lack of light, there are branches growing, growing branches and leafy, the stems are very long, but it is not flowering, the branches are very long, and the nutrients are supplied to the top to flower, in fact, the more difficult it is. The flowers of the bougainvillea are both
It is at the top of the branch, so the longer the branch grows, the weaker the performance of flowering at the top. If it is ground-planted, its branches are long enough to grow buds directly from the top, because its roots are already deeply rooted in the soil and absorb a lot of nutrients.
However, if the branches of the pot are too long, the nutrients cannot be supplied at all, so the performance of flowering will be greatly weakened. Therefore, it is best to prune the bougainvillea planted at home, and the pruned plant type is beautiful and compact and the flowering performance is stronger. Bougainvillea flowering, generally flowering at the top of the new branch, the old branch is difficult to grow flower buds, so we should properly prune the old branches, let it promote the side branching, the side branch grows to a certain extent, and then promote the flower is the easiest to flower.
When pruning, it is necessary to forcibly prune, directly prune the branches that are too long, and you can retain two or three pairs of leaves of a branch, that is, two or three pairs of bud points to let it emerge from the side shoot points. If the branches of your whole plant grow very long, very messy. Then, you can keep it about five to ten centimeters more from the plant type you trimmed last time. The bud points that slowly grow from the bud point can make the whole plant more and more full, rounded, and not loose.
You can also prune according to your favorite plant type, as long as you can achieve the effect of short branches to promote branching. And to prune the diseased branches and weak branches of the entire plant, only those thick branches are retained, so that after pruning, the plant type is relatively short, the distance of nutrient supply is relatively short, the nutrient supply is sufficient, and the flowering will be more vigorous.
This is an important point in raising bougainvillea, and it is indispensable to raise potted bougainvillea if you want to raise this step well. If you want the bougainvillea to blossom continuously, after opening a stubble of flowers, you must also forcibly prune, cut the branches appropriately, repair the plant type, let it branch on the side of the hair, and the next flowering will be more and more vigorous.
Second, the light should be sufficient
Bougainvillea is a strong positive flower, 365 days a year to give it the sun, the more sunburn its plant is more compact and fuller, and the stronger the flowering performance, the more oily green leaves. In the southern region, most of them are open-air planted bougainvillea, receiving full-day sunlight every day, in such an environment and temperature, it can continue to grow, continue to flower, and the flowering is particularly explosive from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.
Of course, the potted bougainvillea can not lack light, but the bougainvillea raised indoors is not achieved if it is not placed in the most illuminated place on the south balcony, and it will always grow branches, which is caused by lack of light. Therefore, the family must have a place with strong light, if not, try not to raise bougainvillea, and it is not good to raise it.
It is best to shine more than six hours of light a day, the light is higher than seven or eight hours It can quickly grow flower buds, especially in the stage of promoting flowers, light is not lacking, the light is strong, its leaves photosynthesis, the production of sufficient nutrients next to the growth of more flower buds.
Third, apply enough fertilizer
Bougainvillea its flowering performance is so strong, of course, fertilizer can not be lacking, any potted plants, its soil nutrients are insufficient supply, so to often fertilize supplements, in order to grow leafy, blossom continuously. When raising bougainvillea, if you have not flowered, be sure to supplement it with potassium dihydrogen phosphate.
In the case of pruning branches and sufficient light, it is necessary to water potassium dihydrogen phosphate or flower more than two In accordance with the ratio of 1: 1000, it is okay to water three times a month or to spray leaves, and the branches can also absorb and then let it continue to grow, after the new shoots absorb the phosphorus element, it will prompt it to emerge at the top of the branches After the buds and other buds grow out, other fertilizers are not missing, and some phosphorus elements are mainly applied, and other elements are not missing.
Let it flower at the same time as growing leaves from the plant. The most suitable way to use the flower Duoduo No. 2 is to apply it two to three times a month, so that it can continue to bloom while growing branches, in order to achieve its effect of continuous flowering throughout the year.
Fourth, control watering
If your bougainvillea branches are too long to flower, you should also properly control the watering, and wait until the leaves are soft and soft to water, which will gradually reduce the strength of its upward growth, and retain nutrients to let it flower. If there is sufficient water, it will continue to grow upwards, growing leaves and leafy, but it will not flower, so water control is also one of the important means to promote the flowering of the bougainvillea.
Water control is essential in the case of pruning, sun exposure, and fertilization. Wait until the leaves are soft and beaten, and then go to water after its leaves quickly absorb and then stand up, and then repeatedly bask in the sun, wait until the leaves are soft and white, and then water, so that after a month or so, the flower branches next to it will emerge a lot of small buds and stop controlling the water. In the case of sufficient water and fertilizer, soon its flower buds will grow up, and they can bloom and explode at once.
If you always can't raise it, follow these steps to raise, you will also raise it to open the popping pot, especially in the spring, but the pop-up period of the bougainvillea, seize the time to prepare for the work, wait for its big pop.
