The cultivation method of mulberry leaf peony
An article on green plant knowledge, introducing the related experience of growing mulberry leaf peony at home, the cultivation method of mulberry leaf peony, the specific content is as follows:
Mulberry leaf peony is a strong positive plant, preferring warm and humid conditions, requiring sufficient sunlight, not tolerant to shade, cold, or drought. In the Yangtze River Valley and northward regions, it can only be grown in pots, maintaining a temperature of 12-15°C in greenhouses or other protected areas to overwinter. Room temperature below 5°C will cause the leaves to turn yellow and fall off, and below 0°C will result in frost damage. It is tolerant to pruning, with strong branching ability. It adapts to a wide range of soils, but grows best in slightly acidic loamy soil rich in organic matter, with a pH of 6.5 to 7.
If mulberry leaf peony does not receive enough sunlight, the buds tend to fall off, the flowers shrink, and it requires at least 8 hours of sunlight per day. Mulberry leaf peony has a high demand for fertilizer, and it should be supplemented in time during cultivation.
For potting mulberry leaf peony, it is generally moved out of the room in April, changing the pot before moving out, pruning appropriately to maintain an attractive tree crown, ensuring sufficient watering during the growing period, avoiding water shortage or waterlogging, usually watering once a day, and twice a day during the hot summer. Regularly sprinkle water on the ground to increase humidity and lower temperature, preventing young leaves from withering and flowers from falling early. After the end of October when it gets cool, move it into the greenhouse, keeping the temperature above 12°C, and controlling watering while stopping fertilization.
Poor ventilation in the cultivation area and insufficient sunlight often lead to aphids, scale insects, and soot mold disease. Attention should be paid to improving the environmental conditions and choosing appropriate pesticides for spraying and control.
