In the eyes of many people, the fortune tree is a beautiful small bonsai, in spring and autumn, the leaves are red, and the leaves are like a rolled up tube, which can suck a lot of money into it, so it is called the wealth tree.
In fact, the fortune tree belongs to a kind of jade tree, which is also called jade tree roll, that is, like the leaves of the jade tree rolled up. Therefore, it is the same as the jade tree, the thick leaves can absorb a lot of harmful gases, and it is a "lucky tree" with a good ability to purify the air.
Many flower friends also have a wealth tree, but they are very small potted plants, but a flower friend in Shandong has raised the wealth tree for 20 years, and has developed a beautiful boutique old pile, red, too festive, no wonder people who see it say "become fine".
And this pot of fortune tree is also blooming, the flowering of the wealth tree means that "good things are coming, and those who see it are blessed".
Seeing such a beautiful fortune tree, are you also tempted, and if you want to raise one, then let's see how to raise it.
1. Raise good flowers in small pots
Fortune sucking trees especially like to use small pots to raise, such as the 20-year-old stump above, and the flower pots used are very small. Because the fortune sucking tree is very drought tolerant, it is easy to rot roots when using large pots and large soil, watering more, and it is difficult to raise for many years.
Therefore, it is recommended to use small pots to raise wealth trees. There are also flower pots made of water permeability and good air permeability, which are more conducive to the growth of the roots of the Fortune Tree. If porcelain pots are used, the soil needs to be breathable and permeable to prevent root rot.
2. The soil should have good water permeability
Although it is said that the fortune tree does not pick the soil, it can grow well in slightly acidic and slightly alkaline soils. However, the compacted soil is easy to lead to the permeability of the roots of the wealth sucking tree, and the permeability is not good, and after watering, either the roots cannot absorb water, or the water is rotten to the roots, so the soil must be good.
You can use the same proportion of humus, garden soil, sand mixed soil, you can also use the purchased nutrient soil, add some river sand, or vermiculite, gravel, etc., so that the soil is loose and breathable, and the water permeability is very good. Organic fertilizer can also be added to the soil, which loosens the soil and increases nutrients.
3. Spring and autumn maintenance methods
Spring and autumn are the vigorous growth period of the fortune tree, but the temperature needs to reach more than 15 degrees, and the high temperature is below 30 degrees, which means that we should pay attention to it in early spring and late autumn.
During this time, it is recommended to keep the tree outdoors, because the weather is warm, and it is the vigorous growth period of the tree. You can take advantage of this time to repot and change the soil of the tree, because after a year of growth, the tree is easy to have compacted soil, or lacks nutrients.
After potting, it can be placed directly in the sun, because the sunlight is not strong at this time, and more sun can make the color of the fortune tree red. For the Fortune Tree that is beginning to grow, it is recommended to water more because it grows quickly and the water evaporates quickly, so it needs more water.
Slow-growing suckers can also be fertilized appropriately, such as using multiple controlled-release fertilizers or fermented organic fertilizers, which can promote growth and make the leaves red.
4. Management of dormant periods in summer and winter
In the summer, the tree will grow very slowly, especially after the temperature exceeds 35 degrees, at this time, the tree should not be exposed to the sun, let alone exposed to the rain, because the temperature is very high, after rain or watering, it is easy to boil roots, resulting in rotten roots of the tree, and even the branches and leaves will wilt.
Therefore, it is recommended to have proper shade, watering as much as possible in the evening, and never at noon. Also, because the growth is slow in summer, it is necessary to stop fertilizing in summer. Wait for the autumn to start growing vigorously, and then fertilize the tree. Prevent fertilizer damage and root burning in high temperatures in summer.
In winter, if there is no heating indoors, it is recommended to keep it in a sunny place and keep the indoor temperature above 10 degrees, because no matter how low the temperature is, the fortune tree will be prone to frostbite.
Because the temperature is low in winter and the growth is slow, the requirements for water and fertilizer are also very low, so it is not recommended to fertilize in winter, there is heating indoors, and the temperature reaches more than 15 degrees, which can be similar to the maintenance method in spring and autumn.
If there is no heating in winter, it is recommended to water the Fortune Tree at noon when the temperature is high to prevent the Fortune Tree from being frostbitten after watering due to the low temperature at night.
5. Pruning and cuttings
If you want to make the tree a beautiful old pile, you also need to prune it frequently, for example, cut off some of the branches of the tree to create a pile shape, which will leave one or two branches. When it grows up, let the fortune tree grow side branches, and it can become a beautiful old pile.
It is recommended to prune the fortune tree in the spring together with the repotting, and the pruned branches can also be used for cuttings, because spring is the season when everything sprouts, and cuttings are especially easy to survive. As long as you use permeable and permeable soil, and smaller flower pots, you can turn one pot into more pots, and the pots and pots are all rich.
Seeing that the Fortune Tree has been raised for 20 years, have you also been shocked? Your Wealth Tree has been raised for a few years? If you like the big old pile, you can also raise it according to this method, I believe you can also raise a high-quality old pile. #头条创作挑战赛#
