How to raise juvenile white peonies, how to raise white peonies

White peony is a winter-type species, likes a warm, dry and ventilated environment, has strong adaptability, and the most suitable temperature for growth is 15 25, and it can not be lower than 5 in winter, otherwise it is easy to get frostbite.

Watering insists on watering after the soil is dry, generally once a month is enough. Proper shade and ventilation in summer, watering in winter, and winter in a sunny place.

In the hot summer, water 4 to 5 times a month, without watering thoroughly. In order to maintain the normal growth of white peony plants, it is easy to rot if the water is too large in summer.

In winter, when the temperature is lower than 5 degrees, the water should be gradually cut off, and the potting soil should be kept dry below 3 degrees, and the roots will rot when the water is large in the cold winter. Full sunshine, the growing period must be fully visible, otherwise it will be "long and not negotiable".

Spring and autumn are the growing seasons for white peonies, and they can get full sunshine. In summer, it is slightly dormant and should be ventilated and shaded.

White peony propagation mainly depends on the side buds of the plant, leaf cuttings and cutting heads, and the new shoots that grow from the residual stem roots after cutting the head to continue the offspring, and it is very easy to grow side buds, the survival rate is relatively high, and a large number of seedlings can be obtained from leaf cuttings.

Spring is the season of side bud eruption, at this time the reproduction and growth is the fastest, white peony can be multiplied in all seasons, small leaves can be thrown to the surface of the soil or inserted into the soil can grow independent plants.

1. Soil: When breeding, we should use soil with good drainage ability, and the breathable sandy soil is the most suitable, which is not only beneficial to the root growth of white peony, but also better drainage. In addition, it is necessary to change the pot once every 3-4 years.

2. Light: In the environment of sufficient sunlight, the more vivid the color of the leaves of the plant, and the temperature difference between day and night should be large enough. If the outdoor temperature is low, keep it outdoors as much as possible, as the lack of sunlight will make the leaves more sparse.

4. Pruning: After finding that there are dry leaves, old leaves or yellow leaves on the plant, it should be pruned in time. Also during the growth of the plant, properly prune the top leaves, which will make the plant grow lower and fuller, and the ornamental value will be higher.

1. Leaf cuttings: Cut a mature leaf from the mother plant and prepare moist sandy soil. The leaf surface should be upward, the leaf back down, and placed in a cool position for about 10 days, and small roots will grow, and then bury them in the soil.

White peony is a hybrid of the Sedum family, a hybrid of the genus Windmill and the genus Pseudolithus, and one of the succulents that are not easy to raise. The white leaves bloom like peony flowers, and the seed plants are only tough and numerous. It grows fast and has lush foliage.

Spring to autumn is the growth season, the soil is dry and then watered, watering too often is easy to rot, pay attention to ventilation in summer. In winter, it enters the dormant period, the amount of watering is controlled, and the stove is cultivated indoors for the winter.

From late September to mid-October every year, select 4 5-year-old plants with lush branches and leaves as the mother plant, dig out the whole cluster from the soil, remove the soil attached to the roots, put it in a cool place to dry for two or three days, and then break it by hand or split it with a knife after the roots become slightly softer and divide it into several clusters, each cluster with 3 4 branches and 2 3 roots, and then plant, water and shade after planting. The planting depth is the same as the original planting depth of the seedlings. The peony planted in the open field in the cold area of northern winter should be sprayed with a new high-fat film to protect the cold, and then sprayed on the ground to protect moisture.

When planting white peonies in pots, the bottom of the pot can be paved with coarse sand or small stones 3-5 cm thick to facilitate drainage. The potting soil should be mixed with yellow sand soil and cake fertilizer, or with fully decomposed manure, garden soil, and coarse sand at 1:1:

1 ratio of mixed culture soil. The soil should be filled so that the root system is stretched and cannot be curled; After covering the soil, it should be compacted by hand so that the root system is in close contact with the soil, so that it is easy to survive. After potting, water once and put the seedlings in the semi-shade.

After being transferred to normal management, it can be placed in a sunny place to ensure that it has sufficient sunlight exposure.

Illumination. The more sunlight and the greater the temperature difference between day and night, the more vivid the color of the leaves. If the temperature allows, it is best to let the hail go outdoors to maintain it and ensure sufficient light.

When there is insufficient light or too much soil moisture, the whole plant is light green or dark green, the leaves are sparse and the spacing is elongated, accelerating the upward growth, seriously affecting the ornamentality, and may even die due to the obstruction of the photosynthesis of the plant.

Moisture content. Due to the high content of water stools inside the plant, white peony is easy to rot in an excessively humid environment. Do not overwater.

In order to avoid water accumulation at the roots, it is best to choose a pot with drainage holes at the bottom, and novices can choose terracotta pots with good air permeability when planting; Glass containers absorb heat and have poor air permeability, so use with caution.

Soil. It is advisable to cultivate in sandy soil with good drainage and air permeability to facilitate the removal of excess water and the growth of plant roots; It can be prepared with 1 3 each of humus, sand and garden soil. Repot every 3 4 years in the spring to cut off the old dead roots.

Temperature. It can withstand a low temperature of -4 degrees for two hours. When the temperature is too high (above 35 degrees Celsius) or too low (below 5 degrees Celsius) in winter and summer, the plant stops growing, at this time, it should be temporarily reduced or stopped, and the watering frequency should be resumed when the temperature is suitable.

Pay attention to ventilation during high temperatures in summer to prevent prolonged exposure to the sun to avoid sunburn.

Light and drought tolerant, it is better to put a bright and ventilated place on the balcony, light and drought tolerance, especially drought resistance, less watering and fear of waterlogging, the soil is not dry and watering, it doesn't matter if the soil is dry, afraid of cold and frost, pay attention to heat preservation in winter.
