Hello everyone, I am from Zhao Family Garden, Yichuan Road Street, Putuo District, Shanghai. As early as the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Zhao Dejia initiated the cultivation of flowers, because future generations are engaged in gardening flowers and flowers, so it is called "Zhao Family Garden".
More than 270 years have passed, and the Zhao family's chrysanthemum fragrance has been passed down to the eighth generation. During this period, various varieties of chrysanthemums cultivated have been sent to participate in flower fairs all over the world and have won many awards. In 2013, the chrysanthemum planting technique of Zhao Family Garden was included in the fourth batch of intangible cultural heritage representative projects in Shanghai
How did the florists in the Zhao Family Garden take care of us?

New seedling cultivation period from May to June
Everyone does not know that the old roots of chrysanthemums do not exert force, so every year we must start cultivating from new seedlings. So where do the new seedlings come from? The new seedlings are cut and grafted from the foot buds that grew on the side of the old root of the previous year. The cycle of life is so magical.
From May to June, it is a good time for chrysanthemum cuttings and grafting. The new seedlings after cuttings are still relatively weak, look a little sloppy, and need to be carefully served. Can not be dehydrated, nor can it accumulate water, the sun is too large to be moderately shaded. It takes about 20 days from cutting to rooting, and when new leaves emerge, it means that you are alive!
July-August thriving growth period
From July to August, as soon as the momentum eased up, we had to change to a big house to live in (change pots and plant independently). This stage is our growth period and requires a full range of careful care of soil, fertilizer, water, medicine and so on. Potting soil should be loose and breathable, nutrient soil + organic fertilizer is a good choice, adding an appropriate amount of rice bran can increase soil permeability, economical and affordable. We don't like water very much, but we can't do without water. At this stage, when watering us, proper thin fertilizer and diligent application can help us grow stronger.
In weather above 35 degrees, we should be shielded from the sun. In the event of rainy weather, we should also be sheltered from the rain. High temperature + stagnant water, it is easiest for us to die.
Black spot disease, drill heartworm, green worm... It is also our nemesis, and regular and moderate injection prevention is also indispensable. Do not overdoses.
Flower bud gestation period from September to October
After escaping the high temperatures of July and August, we successfully grew flower buds. It takes about 40 days from bud growth to flowering. At this stage, don't skimp on your organic fertilizer. Excess side buds should also help us pick them off, avoid the waste of nutrients, and concentrate on supplying the top buds.
Varieties such as the chrysanthemum need to be carefully coiled to make the flowers bloom more evenly and more ornamentally.
It is in full bloom in late October
In late October, we will be opening up one after another. Our chrysanthemums are sometimes quiet and elegant, sometimes warm and unrestrained
It can also be shaped into different forms such as bonsai chrysanthemums and cliff chrysanthemums. Not only is the viewing period long, from the first opening, to the final withering, each stage has changes, all of which are available for you to enjoy. What's the reason not to love?
11-4 months Post-flower care period
Abandon us after the flowers are thanked? Do not leave 3-5 leaves, normal fertilizer water maintenance. After a while or wait until the next spring, there will be surprises. Wait until there are new foot buds emerging next to the old roots, which can be used for cuttings or grafting! In this way, our high value can be passed on forever.
How can there be chrysanthemums and no crabs? The crab feast cooking skills of Wang Baohe, a long-established brand in Shanghai, are also representative projects of Shanghai Municipal Intangible Cultural Heritage (Wang Baohe Whole Crab Feast has also been rated as one of the top ten famous banquets in China). Let Chef Wang Hao, the inheritor of the "Scriptures", tell everyone how to pick the crab and how to eat it.
