How to Care for Blue Magic
A small tip for life: introducing how to care for Blue Magic and the cultivation methods and techniques of the blue flowering plant. Next, the editor will provide an introduction.
Blue Magic is originally a type of processed flower from the Netherlands, dyed with non-toxic colorants. Its original base flowers are white roses or white Chinese roses. As these two types of flowers approach their blooming period, blue dye is prepared and watered onto the plants. The plants absorb these dyes into their bodies, similar to absorbing water, and over time, the flowers turn blue.
According to related floral experts, naturally grown blue roses are rare in the floral world and not easily obtained. The quantity of blooming blue roses is very limited. Most blue roses seen in the market are artificially processed. Since the dye is applied before the blooming period, the resulting flowers have evenly colored petals and look completely natural. However, if the flowers are dyed blue after being picked, the texture is different, the color looks unnatural, and it is prone to fading.
So, what does the real Blue Magic look like? What are its characteristics?
One, Edible
The real blue rose has its own name, called Blue Magic. It is a new favorite among roses, a rare treasure that is enchanting and fascinating, carrying the meaning of a sacred promise. You might not have thought that it is edible. It has the effects of promoting blood circulation and dredging blood vessels, not only edible but also used as a medicinal guide.
Two, Choosing a Site
Blue Magic, which loves the sun, is very heat and cold resistant. Before planting, a suitable piece of land should be chosen, preferably one with plenty of base fertilizer. If there isn't any, it's not a big deal as it can still grow strongly on infertile soil. However, adequate watering is essential to prepare the soil and keep it from becoming compacted.
How to Care for Blue Magic
Three, Planting Methods
There are several methods for planting Blue Magic, such as direct insertion and cutting. The cutting method is generally used in production and is mostly done in spring. The cuttings should be selected from the mother plant, ensuring they are one year or older, woody, and not overly top-heavy with leaves. The cut should be as close to the node as possible, and a fungicide should be applied around it to prevent rotting. If the cut rots, it can easily become infected with a virus, making it difficult to restore the plant's original growth vigor, let alone encourage root development.
Four, Preventing and Treating Pests and Diseases
Pests can harm blue roses from the roots to the leaves, so neglect can lead to the entire plant being affected. Leaf-eating pests are usually flying insects, such as moths and aphids, which often hide in the dark parts of branches and leaves and are not easily detected. They usually target the younger, tender leaves first. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to new tender leaves for any sign of pests.
The roots of blue roses can also be damaged by pests, such as beetles and ground beetles, which feed on the plant's roots. Damaging the plant's roots will naturally affect its growth. For such pests, a毒 attractant should be used to eliminate them. Once Blue Magic blooms, its beauty is dazzling, with strong buds, large flowers, and stunning colors.
