Recently, the director of the station discovered an interesting bonsai material, red fruit!
Red fruit is also called Brazilian red fruit.
Myrtle family Cherry genus.
Evergreen shrubs or small trees.
Red fruit, as a Lingnan bonsai tree species, can enjoy both flowers and fruits, as well as the skeleton, is one of the excellent tree species in Lingnan bonsai.
Red fruit is distributed in tropical America, and has been introduced in the tropics of all continents.
Leaves are opposite, single-leaf, ovate to oval, 7 cm long, off-white on the back, the surface veins are obviously concave, the petiole is short, the flowers are solitary, white, 1.5 cm in diameter, aromatic, the fruit is ovoid, there are 8 longitudinal grooves, 3.5 cm in diameter, yellow to red, edible and fruity.
Oh, and after introducing the morphological characteristics of the red fruit in one breath, let's continue to see how to cultivate the red fruit into an ornamental bonsai.
Pile raising phase
The main source of red fruit pile material is jiapei.
The excavation of large piles is better to warm up after the spring and before the Qingming Dynasty.
In addition, seed propagation and root cuttings can be used.
Red fruit buds are dense, germination is strong, the rooting speed is fast, basically can be cut in place at one time, cultivated with coarse river sand, placed in the sun, 20 days to germinate new shoots, 30 days to see new roots.
One of the important reasons to recommend red fruit: high survival rate.

◆ A bowl lotus two tools three tails small fish, the director invited you to plant bowl lotus on the balcony
Branching stage
After the stump is alive, the branches grow wildly, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the branches are thinned, fixed, and the angles are followed.
Conventional big fat big water management.
The red fruit root system is developed, likes water and fertilizer, grows fast in the environment of high humidity, and it is not difficult to cultivate thick branches.
Red fruit leaves are paired, and to obtain a happy branch, only one of the branches can be selected. It is also possible to select side branches and sacrifice branches to obtain branches relatively quickly.
Red fruit scissors tend to be as swollen and indecent as the crane foot knee joint. Pay attention to deep shearing when shearing, and the branches will be beautiful after healing.
Molding phase
The small piles of red fruits have been maintained by 4 to 5 years of branches, and the branches of the work can reach 4 sections before they can be viewed in pots.
After the spring, re-cut and root, turn the pot and replant.
After 30 days, after the new shoots and roots grow steadily, they can enter the routine management.
The focus is on encrypting young shoots. Red fruit water fertilizer will make the intersection grow, so it is necessary to properly control fertilizer and water control, forcing the internodes to be short and dense, and it is possible to achieve the effect of dense branches after shearing.
Post-molding maintenance
After the work is formed, it can begin to focus on fruit appreciation.
August is the flower bud differentiation period of red fruit, and watering should be properly controlled and phosphorus and potassium fertilizer applied.
Red fruit has the habit of flowering and fruiting, in order to make the fruit size uniform, try to retain the same batch of fruit, when the fruit reaches the required number, the remaining buds can be cut off, the small fruit, weak fruit, too dense fruit to remove, so that the size of the fruit is uniform.
When the fruit is stable, the amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer should be increased, and 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution can be sprayed every 7 days or so.
By February to March, the fruit is ripe, which is the best time to see the red fruit.
If the time is mastered well, the Spring Festival is full of fruits, red and red, full of joy and auspicious celebrations.
Pest control
There are fewer red fruit diseases and insect pests, and it can be seen that aphids are infested, and general pesticides can be treated.
The cultivation of family balconies is mainly based on prevention, and garlic water, wind oil essence, etc. can be used for spraying and driving away.
Make a bonsai with red fruits and wait for its flowers to bloom and hang fruit, which is very amazing!
