Mimosa IntroductionMimosa is a perennial herb or subshrub of the Leguminosae family. Its leaves respond to heat and light and are shaped like pompoms. It is a taproot plant and is suitable for sowing and propagation. It is best to use the direct seeding method. Of course, it can also be transplanted in the seedling stage, otherwise it will be difficult to survive. Mimosa cultivation methodMimosa has strong adaptability to the environment and prefers a warm and humid growing environment. It is also a sun-loving plant. When growing mimosa, it should be exposed to more sunlight and provided with sufficient light. The maintenance environment should not be too shady, but it should not be placed directly under strong light. Mimosa can grow in most soils, but it is best planted in loose, fertile, well-permeable sandy loam rich in organic matter. It should be watered sufficiently at ordinary times. The temperature in winter should be maintained above 10°C. Try to grow it indoors and apply thin fertilizer and water every 10-15 days. Insect pests should be removed manually as soon as possible. Watering methodMimosa likes a humid environment and needs to be watered frequently during the growing season. The soil should be kept moist so that it can absorb water better and grow more vigorously. In the summer, the temperature is high and water evaporates quickly. It should be watered once a day and sprayed with water more often to maintain humidity. In the winter, the temperature is low and its growth is inhibited. Pay attention to water control. Don't water if the soil is not dry, and don't water it thoroughly if you do. Fertilization methodMimosa does not require much fertilizer. During the growth period, you can apply a thin layer of fertilizer water once every 10-15 days to meet its needs. Be careful not to use concentrated fertilizer. Pruning methodsMimosa is a plant that is relatively resistant to pruning. The overgrown, too long and too thin branches need to be pruned off. This will allow more side branches to sprout, and more flowers will bloom, which can enhance the ornamental value. If it is not pruned, the aging of the branches will seriously affect the ornamental value. Precautions for Mimosa cultivationDo not water the mimosa before it emerges. Cover it with plastic film to keep it warm and moist. You can water it slightly after it emerges. When the soil in the pot is too dry, water it after sunset. After that, thinning out the seedlings twice and moving them into new pots for planting. Water it every day, but no fertilizer is needed. |
