Cultivation method of iron-clad gold bonsai

1. Planting time

It is recommended to plant the iron-wrapped gold after leaf fall and before germination. It is not recommended to plant it in the cold winter in the northern region. It can be planted before germination in spring. In order to increase the survival rate, the iron-wrapped gold is suitable for growing in a warm, humid and semi-shaded environment.

2. Wrapping

Since the temperature difference in early spring is still relatively large, wrapping the film can play a role in moisturizing and keeping warm, and prevent the impact of the temperature difference between day and night on plant growth. After completing this series, do a good job of shade and maintenance.

3. Watering

Iron-clad gold does not need to be watered frequently in winter. Keep the soil dry to prevent frostbite from the roots. In summer, reduce the frequency of watering appropriately.

4. Fertilization

Do not apply fertilizer to the stumps after planting, as the roots have not yet fully developed. Fertilizing at this time may easily lead to root burn and plant death. After the stumps survive, you can maintain them by applying thin fertilizers frequently.
