What are the methods of punzaping?

The technique originated from the ancient garden art, and was later applied to the modeling of potted plants on tree stumps, which are mainly divided into brown silk and metal wire.

1.Brown silk pluck.

For potted ornamental plants, you can choose to use soft and elastic brown silk to complete. It has a similar color to the tree itself, which has little impact on the ornamental effect, and can be enjoyed after being pricked. It has the characteristics of easy to untie, no heat transfer, and no damage to trees.

In the process of using the brown silk pricking, for some thicker branches, the modeling technique can be completed in stages, that is, every 10 15 days or so after the pricking, the brown silk is tightened once, so as to increase the bending degree of the branch of the potted tree, and finally achieve the required modeling requirements. In the shortage of brown silk or under the influence of other objective conditions, it can also be replaced by new hemp rope with strong toughness, uniform silk rolling and excellent texture, but its color, sunscreen, and waterproofness are slightly worse than those of brown silk, and can only be used for short-term rapid modeling.

2.Wire prickling.

There are many types of metal wires that can be used for panza, and the commonly used ones are aluminum wire, copper wire, and iron wire. The first two can be used, because the iron wire is hard, it needs to be burned by fire, and it is easy to bend after annealing. In general, the thickness of the wire used is equivalent to 1 3 of the thickest part of the branch to be bound, and the length is about twice the length of the branch.

When using wire binding, the following points need to be noted:

1) The thickness of the wire should be suitable for the thickness of the branches to be tied, and too thick or too fine can not achieve the best effect.

2) Fix the starting point of the pampering, it is very important for the pampering process, and it has a great impact on the success of the pricking, if it is not fixed firmly, the wire slides on the branch that is pricked, in addition to the weakening of the bending force, it will also damage the bark of the active part. The method of fixing the prickly should be flexibly mastered according to the specific situation of the branch, and the commonly used methods include the method of entering the soil, pressing the buckle method, knotting the method, and the dry branch method.

3) Master the density and direction of the wire. After fixing the starting point, tighten the wire to make it at a 45° angle with the branch, and slowly wrap it close to the tree, its density should be appropriate, too sparse or too dense will affect the effect of the prickling. The wire can be wound in either clockwise or counterclockwise directions.

Wire winding method.

4) The order of the panza should be from bottom to top, from thick to fine, first the main trunk, then the main branch, and then the side branches. After the bending of the panza is completed, the overall shape should be re-examined, and the unsatisfactory parts of the form should be adjusted to obtain the most ideal modeling effect.

Analysis of the knowledge of dry goods "Panzha control", mainly Panza, and the appropriate period is selected to grade Panza.

1. It is best to properly control the water of the potting soil before bonsai climbing. That is, wait for the leaves to wilt slightly before watering, so that the branches of the tree are soft and easy to bend.

2. For tree species with thin bark and easy to damage, you can wrap the branches with hemp bark or paper, and then wrap the wire.

3. The root of the wire wrapped around the trunk must be inserted into the potting soil to fix it.

4. The first circle of winding should be fixed with the trunk and then wound to the top.

5. The order of climbing is the main trunk first, the lateral branches at the back, and the last branch; The lower branches first, then the upper branches, and finally the top. Note that the wire is kept at an angle of about 45 degrees to the branch, twisting and twisting to create a bend with the thumb.

6. Do not bend too hard to prevent breaking branches or damaging the bark. The curved protrusion of the branch must be passed by a metal wire so that it is not easy to break.

7. When climbing a certain branch, another branch can be used to fix each other. When winding the last turn, the wire ends can be reversed to prevent loosening.

8. The wire can be wound in a clockwise direction or in a counterclockwise direction, depending on the direction of twisting. If necessary, you can use the branches to change the angle in the middle of the way.

9. When cutting the wire, it is advisable to put the scissors at a right angle to the wire to avoid the formation of a sharp shape at the cut point.

10. Between the wire and the climbing branches, leave a little gap that is not easy to see, not too tight or too loose, to avoid excessive pressure of the wire and damage to the bark.

11. When winding multiple small branches on the same branch, the reputation must be wound at intervals, that is, after the wire is wound around the first branch, skip the second branch and wrap around the third branch; After wrapping around the second branch, skip the third branch, wrap around the fourth, and so on.

1) The potted ornamental plants are generally better in early spring or late autumn. It should not be carried out during the budding season, otherwise the new shoots are vulnerable to injury or fall off.

2) The potting soil should be carried out when the potting soil is dry, the potting soil is too wet, and the fixation force of the roots is weakened, which often causes damage to the root bridge.

3) Panzha is not conducive to the growth of trees, and trees that are potted soon or do not grow strong are not suitable for Panza.

4) Mastering the time of untying is very important in the process of panza modeling. For some thin branches, it can be untied in the same year, and some coarse and dry prickly should be longer, generally 2 or 3 years before it can be tied. If the premature removal of the pampering, the branches are not completely shaped, it is easy to cause **, although there is a bending, but it is not ideal, and it is a waste of time and energy to carry out the prickling again.
