How to preserve the juice of fresh impatiens petals

When placed in liquid nitrogen, it is instantly reduced to more than 100 degrees below zero, but only hospitals and research institutes may have conditions.

Impatiens, alias: henna, acute seed, impatiens bone, Latin name: impatiens balsamina l

Sapindaceae, Impatiens and Impatiens are annual herbaceous flowers, and the whole plant is divided into six parts: roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits and seeds. Because of its flower head, wings, tail, and feet are all warped like a phoenix, it is also known as the golden phoenix. The body of the impatiens has six parts: roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruits, and seeds.

The flowers come in a variety of colors, including pink, red, purple, and pink-purple, and the petals or leaves are smashed and wrapped around the nails with leaves, which can be dyed bright red, which is very beautiful and very popular with girls. Folks often use its flowers and leaves to dye their nails. Stems and seeds are used in medicine.

The stem has the effect of dispelling rheumatism, invigorating blood and relieving pain, and is used to treat rheumatic joint pain, flexion and extension are unfavorable; The seeds are called "acute seeds", which have the effect of softening and dissipating accumulation, and are used to treat choking diaphragm, bone and throat, abdominal lumps, and amenorrhea.

Annual herb, 40-100 cm tall, fleshy, erect, stout. Leaf alternate; petioles about 1-3 cm long, with several glands on both sides; Leaves lanceolate, 4-12 cm long, 1-3 cm wide, apex long and acuminate, base tapering, margins sharply serrate, lateral veins 5-9 pairs. peduncle short, solitary or several clusters of leaf axils, densely pubescent; The flowers are large, usually pink or variegated, single or double; sepals 2, broadly ovate, sparsely pubescent; The flag lobes are rounded, the apex is concave, there is a small pointed tip, and the dorsal middle rib has a keel process; wing lobes broad, with short stalks, 2-lobed, basal lobes nearly rounded, upper lobes broadly axe-shaped, apex 2 shallowly lobed; labial flap scaphoid, sparsely pubescent, abruptly lengthened at base into a thin, inwardly curved distance; The anthers are blunt.

If you put it in the freshness layer of the refrigerator, it will definitely not work, and the appearance will not change when you put it in the freezer, but it will be soft when the ice melts. If it is to be put in liquid nitrogen, it will be reduced to more than 100 degrees below zero in an instant, and only hospitals and research institutes may have the conditions. If you want to have the petals of impatiens in winter, you can go to the large flower garden to see, and the impatiens grown in the greenhouse are usually in bloom all year round.

During the season when the impatiens are planted and matured, they should be harvested and then dried. After drying, wrap it in a newspaper or plastic bag and store it in the dark for preservation.

Related knowledge: 1. Impatiens is a perennial herbaceous plant, and this kind of flower likes sunlight very much, and is afraid of moisture and cold. Therefore, when planting this kind of flower, we must strictly understand its planting techniques and skills, so as to make the flowers of impatiens bloom more beautiful and more delicate.

Although the flower is highly adaptable and survivable, it also requires a certain temperature and humidity as well as a degree of soil fertility.

2. If there is a garden at home, you can plant impatiens in the courtyard, which is the most appropriate. This flower is very tenacious and is a very good plant. When the spring flowers are in full bloom, find a relatively fertile land and sow the seeds.

3. When choosing the land, it is necessary to choose the loose and fertile soil, which has good ventilation, so that it is more conducive to its growth, and the impatiens seeds will be covered with film after sowing, and the flower seedlings will grow in about half a month. When impatiens are in the growth period, it is necessary to ensure that their nutrients are given to it regularly to fertilize it, so as to make it grow stronger.

Add beer: Beer contains ethanol, which can disinfect and prevent corrosion from the incision of the flower branch. Carbonated soda:

Mix Sprite and water in a ratio of 1:4 and plant impatiens fresh. Add preservative:

The use of medicine to inhibit the wilting of impatiens and prolong the storage time. Other methods: add vinegar, salt, etc. to the hydroponic container, and the concentration should not exceed 5%.

1. Add beer

In order to prolong the preservation time of impatiens, you can add diluted beer to the vase, because the beer contains ethanol, which can disinfect and preserve the incision of the flower branches, and it also contains sugar and other nutrients, which can provide nutrients for the branches and leaves of the impatiens.

2. Add carbonated soda

During the preservation period of impatiens, you can add carbonated soda, take Sprite as an example, mix Sprite and water in a ratio of 1:4, pour it into the vase of impatiens, and the flowers will still remain delicate and dripping after a week, and the preservation time is longer.

3. Add preservatives

Add an appropriate amount of chemical agent to the flower arrangement solution of impatiens, use the agent to inhibit the wilting of flower branches, which can prolong the storage time, or take a small amount of dish soap to dissolve it in warm water, prepare a solution with a concentration of 2%-4%, and then soak the obliquely cut impatiens in water, which can prolong the life of flowers by more than 2-3 times.

4. Other methods

When preserving impatiens, you can also add vinegar and salt to the hydroponic container to prevent the breeding of bacteria in the water, and maintain the water absorption and freshness of impatiens through the difference in the concentration of cell fluid in the sliding cavity of salt water and flowers, and pay attention to the concentration can not exceed 5%, otherwise it is easy to dehydrate and wilt.

1. Pick flowers: Pick the petals of impatiens, preferably one by one, to ensure the integrity of the petals.

2. Wash and dry: Put the petals in a container and clean them, and control the moisture, pay attention not to expose to the sun.

3. Refrigeration treatment: The impatiens petals that control the moisture can be packed into plastic bags, and then placed in the fresh-keeping layer of the refrigerator for storage, and the temperature is controlled between 0-8 °C.

4. How to use the penny: take out the petals and cut them into small pieces, rub the juice, and apply them to the nails.

Here's how to save it:

Method 1: Beer.

You can add a little beer to the vase of flowers, because beer contains ethanol, which can disinfect and preserve the incision of flower branches, and contains sugar and other nutrients, which can provide nutrients for branches and leaves.

Method 2: carbonated soda + water.

Take Sprite as an example, mix Sprite and water in a ratio of 1:4, pour it into a vase, and finally insert beautiful flowers! Generally speaking, flowers raised with water will gradually wither within a week, and the water will become turbid, but with Sprite and water, the flowers will still be beautiful after a week!

The principle of Sprite bubble flowers: The carbonic acid contained in Sprite can kill bacteria, and the high sugar syrup can be used as nutrients.

Method 3: Flower preservative.

Flower preservative: Add an appropriate amount of chemical agent to the flower arrangement solution, and use the agent to inhibit the flower branches, which can prolong the preservation time.

ps: How to make your own flower preservative.

Take a little dish soap, dissolve it in warm water, prepare a solution of 2 4 concentration, and immerse the obliquely cut flower branches in water to a depth of about 5cm, which can prolong the life of flowers by more than 2 3 times.

Method 4: Salt water + sugar.

Adding a small amount of sugar to the water can promote the opening of flower buds and prolong the freshness of flowers.

The main function of adding salt in clean water: to prevent the growth of bacteria in the water, to a certain extent, through the different concentrations of salt water and flower cell sap, to maintain the water absorption ability of flowers, so as to maintain the freshness of flowers. However, the concentration of saline should not be too large, generally not more than 5%, otherwise it will cause cell dehydration, remember.

PS: Brine can also be substituted with white vinegar.

Some tips for saving flowers:

1.The preservation of flowers is affected by many factors, such as the preservation temperature of flowers is generally 5°;

2.The location of flowers should be kept away from direct sunlight in summer and away from the wind in winter;

3.Before inserting the vase, soak the flower branches in hot water for a while, which is conducive to water absorption, sterilization and antiseptic, and is generally scalded in 80 degrees of water for about 30 seconds;

4.Increasing the size of the incision increases her ability to absorb water.
