Jishi trees, as a species widely distributed in China, not only have extremely high ecological value but also play an important role in beautifying the environment and purifying the air. This article will introduce you to the relevant knowledge of Jishi trees, including their ecological value, maintenance skills, and current application status in China.
Jishi trees' ecological value1. Improving the ecological environment
Jishi trees have a powerful root system that can effectively prevent soil and water loss and maintain soil fertility. Their lush branches and leaves can provide habitats for birds, insects, and other organisms, which is beneficial for the protection of biodiversity.
2. Purifying the air
Jishi trees have a strong ability to absorb and adsorb harmful gases such as sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, which is of great significance for improving urban air quality.
3. Reducing noise
Jishi trees have good sound absorption effects, which can reduce urban noise and create a quiet living environment for residents.
Jishi tree maintenance skills1. Soil selection
Jishi trees are suitable for growing in well-drained, fertile soil. Before planting, the soil should be improved to increase the organic matter content and improve soil aeration.
2. Watering management
Jishi trees prefer a humid environment but dislike waterlogging. During the growing period, keep the soil moist and avoid drought and waterlogging. In the hot summer, increase watering frequency to reduce plant water evaporation.
3. Fertilization management
Jishi trees require a higher demand for fertilizers and should be applied with organic and compound fertilizers regularly to meet their growth needs. When fertilizing, pay attention to the fertilizer concentration to avoid overapplication.
4. Pest and disease control
Jishi trees are prone to pest and disease attacks. Regular inspections should be conducted, and timely measures should be taken to address any issues. Biological and physical control methods can be used to reduce the use of chemical pesticides.
Current status of Jishi tree application in China1. Urban greening
Jishi trees play an important role in urban greening in China and are widely used in parks, roads, squares, and other places.
2. Ecological restoration
Jishi trees play an important role in ecological restoration projects, such as soil and water conservation, river management, etc.
3. Rural beautification
Jishi trees are widely used in rural beautification, such as courtyard greening and road greening.
Jishi trees, as a species with high ecological value, have been widely used in China. Understanding their ecological value, maintenance skills, and application status will help us better utilize Jishi trees in ecological environment construction. Strengthening the maintenance of Jishi trees will help enhance their ornamental value and ecological benefits.
