Can boxwood be transplanted in January and what should I pay attention to when transplanting?

It takes about seven or eight years to grow a thumb-sized trunk, and it only takes three or four years to grow and trim into a basketball-sized ball. Transplanting can be carried out three times a year, one is before the plant germinates in spring, the second is the summer redundant period, and the third is after autumn. In January, it is the coldest period in the northern region, the land has not yet thawed, the roots of the plants are in the dormant period, not only transplantation is difficult, but also after transplantation, the roots can not resume growth, so it is best to postpone the transplanting of bird's tongue boxwood until after mid-March.

The transplantation method of boxwood is simple, and the survival rate is 100%. Most of the boxwoods used in our local flower beds are bred in nurseries in the south, and they are planted in spring, summer and autumn. As long as the plant with the soil mass is loaded into the ground and watered thoroughly, the seedling can survive.

Nothing special is required.

In order to transplant the adult bird's tongue boxwood into a pot for planting and maintenance, it is necessary to pay attention to the transplanting method to ensure survival and growth.

First of all, it is necessary to choose the transplanting time scientifically, and according to the time of transplanting, it is easiest to survive before the spring sprout. Then there is the root cutting treatment of the bird's tongue boxwood. Mature plants, the root system is long, in order to meet the needs of potted plants, the long roots can be truncated, only the upper lateral roots can be retained.

Third, after transplanting, it is necessary to water thoroughly, while watering, gently shake the main trunk of the plant, the purpose is to make the fine roots of the plant and the potting soil closely combined, in order to facilitate water retention. Fourth, after transplanting, the shade where the potted plants are placed can be maintained for about half a month, and then normal management and feeding can be carried out. In short, the ground planting of bird's tongue boxwood is used as a potted plant, and the root system should not be left too much, in order to leave more space for new roots to grow.

Once transplanted, the succulent roots of the boxwood will grow vigorously. The root growth has a characteristic, that is, it likes to be close to the inner edge of the pot, and the capillary roots on the inner edge of the pot grow fast, but due to the influence of temperature, water and fertilizer, etc., the elimination rate is also faster. As a result, dense capillary roots grow on the inner edge of the pot, while the center of the pot soil has fewer roots, which affects the growth of the plant, and the growth is slow.

The bird's-tongue boxwood grows slowly, and it is not advisable to change the pot too frequently, so it is advisable to change the soil and change the pot once every three to four years. This is the reason why the root system of the plant is left behind. Transplanting bird's tongue boxwood, the original soil does not need to retain too much, only one-third can be retained, and the proportion of new soil in the potting soil should be increased as much as possible.

Potted bird's tongue boxwood should be planted with sandy soil, not with humus soil.

It should be possible, pay attention to fertilization and watering, because fertilization should ensure the nutrition of growth**, and watering should ensure the absorption of nutrients.

We need to keep some of the original soil at the roots, and then we need to put it in the early stage of the looser soil without watering, let it get used to it for two days, and then water it after a while.

Yes, the plant itself is extremely vigorous, and the chance of survival is very high. It is necessary to pay attention to the transplantation, watering more and basking in the sun to promote the growth of the plant.

Before the flowering period, the fertilizer is mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, which can promote the growth of the flowers and prolong the flowering period in spring.

During the maintenance period, it should be noted that it should be given shade and rain in the high temperature and rainy season, which can avoid the poor growth of the bird's tongue boxwood.

I found that a lot of roots were rotten, was it because of too much boiling water?

Yes! Caused by overwatering and insufficient light. If the water cannot be absorbed or evaporated, there will be stagnant water, resulting in root rot.

Light dust to start the rotten roots, reduce the number of watering and the amount of each watering will slowly recover by themselves, in serious cases, the rotten roots will be cut off, smeared with rooting agent and replanted. Root rot is mostly caused by excessive watering and insufficient light. If the water cannot be absorbed or evaporated, there will be stagnant water, resulting in root rot.

Slightly rotten roots reduce the number of watering and the amount of each watering will slowly recover by themselves, and in severe cases, cut off the rotten roots, apply rooting agent and replant them.

Breeding method: the potting soil is suitable, it is best to use soft, breathable and good drainage humus soil to plant bird's tongue boxwood, you can use clay pots or purple sand pots; Watering in moderation, it does not require much water, watering twice a month is enough to avoid overwatering; Sufficient sunlight should be maintained in a well-lit environment, and shade should be carried out at noon in summer.

2. Watering appropriately

The water requirements of the bird's tongue boxwood are not high, and the water storage capacity of the potting soil is weak, so the pot culture needs to provide a slightly humid environment, and the long-term lack of water will lead to the wilting and death of the plants. But root rot should also be avoided by watering too much, preferably twice a week and a month. In the drier season, it is also necessary to spray water mist appropriately.

3. Sufficient light

Placed in a sunny environment, the bird's tongue boxwood can better control the shape, and can also make the branches and leaves grow more luxuriantly.
