November has passed, and now it's December, when most of the flowers are brought to the house to keep warm, so that they will grow more vigorously in the coming year.
Pruning is a very important part of flower maintenance, which keeps flowers in good shape and beauty. Some high-grade bonsai are made by proper pruning. Here are three flowers that are suitable for pruning and how to prune them, the harder you cut, the more vigorous the growth will be in the coming year.
1. Money Tree:
The Money Tree is a plant that symbolizes good fortune and good luck. It is suitable for placing in the living room, balcony, study or even bedroom of the family, and can play a role in regulating the aura. Money trees have a special way of growing, and their leaves are plump, full, and dark green, with textures and luster, giving them a fresh, elegant feel.
When the money tree is not growing well, we can promote its budding by pruning, which allows nutrients to flow back to the roots, stimulating the huge root masses to regrow, and making the whole plant look brand new.
When caring for money trees indoors, the temperature is generally not very low, usually above 18 degrees, so it can be pruned. Choose thin, thin branches and leaves for root pruning, place them in a bright and warm location, avoid direct exposure to bright light, and do not pour water on the wound. After about two weeks, the money tree will sprout again.
In addition, adding a few grains of cooked soybeans to the pot can provide sufficient nutrients for the money tree and promote its rapid growth.
2. Wenchu:
Although Wenzhu is not a real bamboo, its appearance is lush and slim, and the leaves have a sense of layering, soft and lovely to the touch, giving people a bookish atmosphere. Placing bamboo in the study can reflect the elegance and create a peaceful atmosphere. Bamboos have a high ornamental value and strong vitality, but if they are not pruned, the branches will grow longer and longer, and the form will become ugly.
In order to maintain the layering of the bamboo and form an elegant shape, we need to ensure that the height of each branch is reasonable. In addition, leaves that are too dense will affect ventilation and light transmission, resulting in yellowing of leaves.
Therefore, pruning is very important for bamboo. Especially in winter, when the effects of cold air cause the leaves to turn yellow, the shoots can be shaved and then re-emerge under the right conditions.
3. Yushu:
The jade tree belongs to the succulent plant of the Sedum family, with the style of an ancient tree, the leaves are full and fat, the shape is like jade, and the appearance is similar to a tree, so it is named the jade tree. The jade tree is a vigorous shrub plant with thick and straight branches, giving people a sense of vitality, which can be placed at home to create a positive atmosphere, make the mood happy, and double the efficiency of work and Xi.
The jade tree means good luck, and there is a saying that the good things come when the jade tree blooms. If you want to raise a pot of jade trees, in addition to doing a good job of watering, fertilizing, light, etc., you also need to pay attention to pruning. Pruning is mainly to prune off long branches, dense branches, young branches and old branches at the base. If the growth of the jade tree is very bad, it can also be pruned into a light rod, because it has a strong vitality and only needs 2 to 3 weeks for it to sprout and grow again.
Therefore, after the end of November, we can seize the time to prune these three flowers, the harder the cut, the more vigorous the growth will be in the coming year!
