The tiger thorn tree is also called the tiger thorn tree. It is a thorny upright or slightly climbing small shrub. Its plant height can be about one to two meters. The branches have ridges, shallow grooves, and are densely covered with conical thorns. Although the thorny rose is covered with thorns, it is an excellent potted flower. Its leaves are dark green all year round, the flowering period is very long, and its ornamental value is very high. It is very popular among flower lovers. So how to grow the thorny rose? Let's learn about it together. 1. SoilBarbary amaranth prefers fertile, loose, well-drained sandy soil. It is generally propagated by cuttings and is very easy to root. For indoor cultivation, you can choose a culture soil made by mixing peat soil and fine sand in a ratio of 3:2. You can also add some materials such as rotten leaves to the original soil to make the soil loose, which is very suitable for the growth of prickly plum flowers. 2. LightingThe thorny plum blossom likes warmth and light. It needs to be maintained in full sunlight to keep blooming. Even in summer, as long as the frequency of watering is increased appropriately, there is no need to shade it. Many people call the thorny plum blossom "indestructible in the sun", and the more it is exposed to the sun, the more flowers it blooms. However, the light is weak in winter, so you can put it on the balcony or windowsill for scattered light maintenance. It is best not to put it outdoors, as the barberry flower is more afraid of cold, so avoid freezing. 3. FertilizationThe prickly rose does not like heavy fertilizers, and nutrients cannot be supplemented at will. It only needs fertilizer during its vigorous growth period in spring and autumn. In spring and autumn, we can supplement it with compound fertilizer rich in nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium 1 to 2 times, so that it can grow well and bloom continuously. 4. WateringThe barberry does not need too much water to grow, and there is no need to water it every day. Too much water will be detrimental to its growth. However, it is impossible for plants to grow without water. The best way to maintain it is to add water after the soil of Euphorbia milii is completely dry. It is not advisable to water it too much to avoid waterlogging and root rot. 5. Plastic surgeryThe branches of the barberry grow very fast. When they grow to a certain length, we need to top them and cut off the branches. The pruning method is to cut the branches, cut off the excess leaves on the branches, and then dip the branches in wood ash to prevent the wounds from rotting, otherwise it will affect rooting. In addition, the branches of the thorny plum blossom are prone to fall over after they grow taller. You can use bamboo strips or other materials to tie them up and support them, or use bamboo strips to build a frame and tie them into various shapes of landscapes. For example, spheres or animal shapes, etc., will be more interesting and spectacular. Cutting propagation of thorny plum (picture) 【 Summarize 】 The barberry flower is relatively easy to care for and maintain. Providing it with a good growing environment will make it bloom all year round. In addition, please note that the juice of the prickly rose flower is poisonous, so during the maintenance process, never touch the juice of the prickly rose flower directly with your hands. |
