What kind of paving grass is good for the production of cloud bamboo bonsai?

Speaking of raising flowers, many people like to lay some small green plants on the pot surface as a pavement, the most common is moss, but the species of moss, to be honest, is really difficult to maintain, if it is in the north it is even more difficult to raise, especially in the pot alone, so today the will share a few small green plants that can be used to make a pavement, which is beautiful and easy to raise, and it will burst the pot if you are not careful.

The reason why we want to lay potted grass for green plants, thinks that there are two reasons that are more important, the first point is that it can block the potting soil, and the potting soil will not leak out every time it is watered, and the second point is that it can cool down and moisturize, because the pavement grass grows close to the potted surface, and it is also relatively dense, so it can avoid direct sunlight in the potting soil under strong light, which can both cool down and moisturize.

1. Cuiyun grass.

Cuiyun grass is a perennial herbaceous plant, the branches can grow on the ground, the part of the branch close to the soil will grow roots, and then grow more and more, and finally grow into a burst pot, Cuiyun grass paving is common in orchid potted plants, in fact, other potted plants can also be completely can, we cut the Cuiyun grass into small sections, and then insert it on the surface of the pot soil, keep it moist, appropriately scatter some light, it can grow very well.

2. Clover.

Clover is very common, sometimes inadvertently see it in the pot, this small green plant has a super strong reproductive ability, it will bear seeds after flowering, and then sow it into the pot, and it will soon grow into a pot, usually almost without management, it can grow to burst, it is super easy to raise.

3. Golden sand grass.

Jinsha grass is relatively rare, it is a perennial root herbaceous plant, this green plant growth ability is very strong, the roots are easy to branch out, and then the branches grow on the ground, it is easy to take root, and it will soon grow into a large pot, and it is relatively easy to maintain at ordinary times, and it is enough to keep light and water.

4. Weeping potted grass.

Weeping pot grass, perennial herbaceous plants, evergreen varieties in all seasons, listen to the name to know that this goods can be hung outside the pot to grow, this goods are very live, the branches can be inserted in the soil can live, the branches are easy to grow aerial roots, and then the more they grow, soon a pot will grow, this goods do not like strong light, usually some scattered light can be, control the pot soil to be dry.

After seeing so many paving grasses, some people may ask, these grasses will not compete with the green plants in the pot for nutrients, in fact, the root system of these grasses mostly grows in the middle and upper part of the potting soil, and the impact on the plants is relatively small.

Due to the needs of modeling, most of the cloud bamboo often use shallow pots when making bonsai, so the green cloud grass, small money grass, and clover are not suitable for the paving grass of cloud bamboo. And moss is suitable for paving grass of cloud bamboo.

Considering the above maintenance characteristics of cloud bamboo, moss, green cloud grass, small desmodium, clover and calamus can all be used as symbiotic paving grasses of cloud bamboo. However, most of the cloud bamboo is often made in shallow pots due to the needs of modeling.

Calamus and moss are good, because they look elegant, and they don't rob it of its own nutrients, and it can also play a certain moisturizing role.

In the production of bonsai, pavement grass is planted as a plant that symbiotes with cloud bamboo, and the selection should consider whether the growth characteristics of the two plants are consistent, and whether the matching landscaping in the bonsai is beautiful and coordinated.

Native to southern Africa, it prefers a warm, moist, and semi-shaded environment with astigmatism, and is not cold or drought tolerant. The soil needs to be fertile, loose, well-drained sandy soil, and waterlogging should be avoided in the pot.

Considering the above maintenance characteristics of cloud bamboo, moss, green cloud grass, small desmodium, clover and calamus can all be used as symbiotic paving grasses of cloud bamboo. However, most of the cloud bamboo due to the needs of modeling, the production of bonsai often use shallow pots, most of the soil is placed on the surface of the pot, in addition to the rapid growth of the cloud bamboo, in addition to the need to prune the cloud bamboo plastic pruning (remove the growth point), but also need to control the amount of potting soil, limit the growth of the root system. Therefore, cuiyun grass, small desmodium, and clover are not suitable for cloud bamboo.

Considering the beauty of the bonsai shape, the height of the Cuiyun grass is not suitable, probably because of the hunger of the shadow cave of the Lan King Shen Yuanru, and the flower friends who raise orchids use the Cuiyun grass as paving grass. In addition, small desmodium and clover are also not suitable for pavement grass of Yunzhu, because these two pavement grasses have super reproductive ability and are encroaching, robbing Yunzhu of nutrients and territory.

Therefore, for the best paving grass for cloud bamboo bonsai making, I only recommend calamus and moss.

Calamus is a perennial herbaceous plant, which is generally not used as a pavement grass alone, but is used as a decoration for landscaping and playing the role of the finishing touch. There are historical records that "April 14, the birthday of the calamus, prune the roots and leaves, accumulate sea water to nourish it, then it is clear and easy to grow, especially clear eyes." ''So calamus is probably the only plant that has a birthday.

Let's talk about moss. Mosses belong to the lowest class of higher plants, without flowers and seeds, and reproduce by spores. Bryophytes are small green plants with a simple structure that contains only two parts: stems and leaves.

The use of moss as a paving grass for cloud bamboo bonsai has the following effects:

1. Preservation effect.

Cloud bamboo likes moisture, and moss paving can effectively prevent the rapid evaporation of water in the pot.

2. Masking.

Covering the flower soil in the pot can effectively prevent the flower soil from splashing out of the pot when watering, and can also make the bonsai look more tidy.

3. Detection effect.

The state of moss can well detect and reflect whether the soil in the pot is short of water and nutrients.

4. Aesthetic effect.

The moss and cloud bamboo are vigorous and complement each other, making the bonsai very "moss marks on the green steps, grass into the curtain green" of the beauty of the return to the country.
