How to manage blazing maple trees

Today, the editor introduces the management of blazing maple trees and related content about the cultivation and care of maple trees, and will next take everyone to understand together.

1. Environment: Maple trees prefer a shady and cool environment and dislike strong direct sunlight. Therefore, the potted landscape should be placed under a shade shelter or other trees for maintenance. If placed in strong sunlight or on a balcony, it often causes leaf burning. Due to poor indoor ventilation, maple potted landscapes should not be placed indoors for more than a week, otherwise, it is detrimental to growth. In winter in the north, the maple potted landscape should be moved into a low-temperature room, while in the south, as long as the pot is buried in the soil facing away from the wind and towards the sun, it can safely overwinter.

2. Watering: Maple trees have large leaves and fast water evaporation. During the growing season, they need to be watered frequently. On hot days, water should be sprinkled on the ground to keep the microclimate moist. In winter, when maple trees enter dormancy, less watering is required, only watering when the potting soil is moist.

3. Fertilizing: Before the maple trees sprout in spring and during leaf expansion, apply a thin, decomposed organic liquid fertilizer once, but avoid fertilizing on rainy days. In August to September, apply a thin, decomposed liquid fertilizer once. Do not fertilize during the winter dormancy period. 4. Leaf Control: If you want to manually control the leaf viewing, it can be done between spring and summer and between summer and autumn. Too frequent control can harm the tree. You can fully defoliate in June and September, and after 10 days, new bright red leaves will grow. Two points to note: one is to prune after defoliation; two is to fertilize one week before defoliation. For manual control of new leaves, fertilization and watering need to be strengthened, as this is the key to success.

5. Shaping: Maple trees have a strong germination ability and often grow new buds on the trunk. Any buds that are not needed for shaping and dense branches should be promptly removed, which can save nutrients and benefit ventilation and light transmission. The best viewing period for maple trees is when the new leaves are just unfolding. If all the leaves are removed at the end of summer and a thin, decomposed liquid fertilizer is applied once, new leaves can grow in about 20 days, thus adding another optimal viewing period.

6. Pest and Disease Control: The main pests and diseases of maple trees include powdery mildew,刺娥 (a type of moth), and aphids. Prompt control is needed when problems arise.
