Raising some flowers and plants at home can not only decorate the room, but also purify the indoor air, and at the same time let people experience a lot of "fun" in the process of raising flowers. Therefore, more and more people are joining the "team" of raising flowers.
Of course, in addition to raising some beautiful flowers on the balcony, some people also like to raise some potted fruit trees, which can not only play an ornamental effect, but also eat the fruits grown by their own hands, pure natural pollution-free, environmental protection and health, the key is also very convenient, when you want to eat, you can pick and eat fresh.
However, not all fruits are suitable for potting on the balcony, you need to choose those suitable potted fruit trees, such as the 3 kinds of fruit trees that Xiao Qian will introduce next, they are especially suitable for potting on the balcony, and the year was "fruit", floral fragrance, fruit sweetness, tree shape beauty, that is called a "cool".
1. Nutrient-rich "passion fruit"
Speaking of passion fruit, I think flower lovers have heard that it is a relatively common fruit in the southern region of the mainland. It grows fast, and also contains vitamin C, vitamin E and other rich nutrients.
Of these, each 100 grams of passion fruit seeds contains about 30 mg of vitamin C, while the content of vitamin E is almost the total of 10 apples. Therefore, passion fruit can be regarded as "excellent student" among many fruits and is deeply loved by people.
If the pulp of passion fruit is eaten directly, it is a bit sour, but it is a delicious dish for people who like sour. Friends who don't like to eat sour directly don't worry, we can dig out the pulp with a spoon and put it into the cup, and then add a little honey, rinse with warm boiling water, and it becomes a cup of sweet and sour passion fruit honey tea.
Although passion fruit is rich in nutrition, its price is still a little expensive, and many friends are reluctant to spend money to buy it. In fact, if you like to eat passion fruit, we can plant a few on our own balcony.
Passion fruit is mainly propagated by cuttings and sowing seeds, and either way, it is suitable for maintenance on the balcony. However, if you want it to bear fruit as soon as possible, Xiao Qian suggests choosing cuttings, or buying passion fruit seedlings, basically that year can bear fruit, convenient and fast.
In addition, if you want the passion fruit plant to produce more fruit, you need to give enough light and fertilizer, and you must also prune diligently to cut off those long branches, diseased branches, and dead branches in time. In this way, the passion fruit can grow faster, flower more, and bear more fruit.
2, sweet but not greasy "figs"
Fig trees have beautiful plant types and lush foliage, especially wide and large leaves, and have high ornamental value. At the same time, figs love fruit, and when it comes to fruiting, the branches will basically be full of fruit, and the fruit will be too many to eat. Moreover, in addition to being planted on the ground, figs are also a fruit tree suitable for balcony potting, and basically can bear fruit when planted in the same year.
The fruit of the fig is also rich in nutrients, which is sweet and not greasy to eat, and is suitable for people of all ages. And eating more figs can not only supplement a lot of nutrition, but also clear the heat, strengthen the spleen and digest the stomach, improve immunity, and is very beneficial to people's bodies.
Balcony potted figs, must choose a good variety. Xiao Qian suggested that everyone choose Boji red, red dwarf stalk, Shengguo No. 1 A42, violet light and other varieties. Because the plant type of these varieties is short and fruity, it is more suitable for balcony potting.
Xiao Qian's family is the following boji red fig, the year of buying home can bear fruit, and the north and south are suitable for maintenance, like the flower friends recommend starting a pot:
The daily maintenance of figs requires sufficient light, and at the same time, it is necessary to keep up with the fertilizer water in time. In the summer, it is recommended to apply more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer so that it can promote the plant to produce more figs. In addition, Xiao Qian suggested that everyone cut off the leaves next to the fruit to improve the ventilation effect and increase the light, so as to improve the quality of the fruit and make the fruit sweeter.
3, flowers and leaves and fruits fragrant "lemon"
Speaking of lemons, I think everyone's impression of it is that the plant is tall and the fruit is very sour. In fact, lemon is also very suitable for fruit trees to be potted on the balcony, its flowers, leaves, and fruits can emit fragrance, and the plant type can also be dwarfed. If you plant a lemon on the balcony, when it blooms, it will be fragrant all over the house and can be full of fruit.
Lemons can also be propagated by sowing seeds or cuttings, and the survival rate of cuttings is very high, just insert the branches into the sandy soil, about 20 days to take root, 40 days to germinate, after germination, the growth rate will be very fast. However, if you want to own a lemon tree that can bear fruit that year, Xiao Qian suggests that you buy a ready-made one.
In order to make the lemon fruit more, it is also necessary to ensure that there is enough light, and when it is potted, it is also necessary to add enough base fertilizer, and after entering the flowering and fruiting period, it is necessary to increase the application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. In addition, on the balcony on the high floor, since there is no pollination by bees or other insects, artificial pollination is required after flowering.
However, special care needs to be paid when artificially pollinating lemons, and it is necessary to distinguish between male flowers and hermaphroditic flowers, with hermaphroditic flowers having peduncles and male flowers without peduncules. Just put the male flower on the sex flower and rub it a few more times, so that the lemon fruit can be guaranteed.
